The Ekip T&P and Ekip Bluetooth modules, and the Ekip Connect software, allow you to set some functions
and parameters not available via dip-switch:

• Maintenance.

• Local Bus.

• Date and time.

• 1 year has passed since the last maintenance.
• Contact wear has increased by more than 10% compared with the value at the last maintenance.
Via Ekip Connect there are two selections available:
• Activation: it allows to the maintenance function to be activated.
• Reset: it allows confirmation of maintenance on the release; the current date and contact wear values are
recorded, and the signal is reset.
The reference date is that of the internal clock, and the elapsed time is calculated both with the release on
and off (provided that the internal battery is working).
NOTE: manual modification of the date can cause variations in the calculation of the time
elapsed, and therefore the date of the next maintenance.
NOTE: the maintenance signal due to increased contact wear is active for values higher than
20 %.
10K modules, the Local Bus parameter must be enabled.
NOTE: communication with the modules is active if the auxiliary power supply is present.
Setting the date can be useful for some functions such as the recording of trips and minimum and maximum
currents, and maintenance.
The clock is active if the internal battery of the release is working.
