5.2.3 MiniCSU-3 Alarms 
A list of all the possible alarms that can be enunciated is shown in the following table.   
Alarm Name  Comments  LED 
SMR Alarm  Combination of one or more SMR alarms  A 
SMR Urgent  One or more SMRs have shut down  A+R 
SMR HVSD  SMR shut down due to output over-voltage  A+R 
UNIT OFF  SMR is off  A+R 
No Response  A particular SMR is not responding to the MiniCSU-3  A 
Power Limit  SMR is in Power Limit  A 
No Load  SMR output current less than minimum for SMR type used  A 
Current Limit  SMR in current limit  A 
Voltage High  Voltage measured by SMR too high  A 
Voltage Low  Voltage measured by SMR too low  A 
UNCAL SMR  SMR Internal Adjustment for current sharing out of limits  A 
EEPROM Fail  EEPROM failed (CSU or SMR)  A 
Fan Fail  SMR Internal Fan failure alarm (only possible on SMRs with fans)  A 
Relay Fail  SMR output relay contact failure  A 
No Demand  Control loop in SMR not in normal state  A 
H/S Temp High  SMR heatsink temperature too high (where available)  A 
DC-Dc Contr Fail  SMR DC/DC converter fault  A+R 
Temp Sensor Fail  Temp sensor in SMR faulty - S/C or O/C (where available)  A+R 
Vref Fail  Voltage reference in SMR microprocessor circuit faulty  A+R 
HVDC not OK  DC/DC converter (boost) voltage in SMR not OK  A+R 
AC Volt Fault – detected 
by SMRs 
All SMRs are reporting AC fault. Available only on some SMR models.  A+R 
AC Volt Fault – detected 
by CSU 
None of SMRS are responding (AC fail assumed), or if AC monitor is 
used, AC voltage is out of limits set 
(When no AC monitoring module is used, this comes together with “SMR Comms Fault”) 
A 
AC Freq Fault  AC frequency lower or higher than preset value  A 
Battery Switch  One or more battery switches open  A 
Cct Breaker  Fuse or CB in load distribution open  A 
LVDS Open  Low Voltage Disconnect switch open  A 
Sys Volts High  System output volts too high  A 
Sys Volts Low  System output volts too low  A 
System V Clamp  CSU can not reach desired system voltage. This can be due to possible 
excessive voltage drop along bus bars or “System V Drop” parameter 
has value too low. 
A 
Cell V High  One or more cells being monitored by BCM is too high in voltage  A 
Cell V Low  One or more cells being monitored by BCM is too low in voltage  A 
Cell %dev High  One or more cells being monitored by BCM is too high % deviation from 
the mean battery cell voltage 
A
