3. Configuration DC Voltage Label DC Voltage Value Calibration Voltage Calibration is factory set. If you need to alter the calibration follow the steps below: Go to Main Menu > Setup > Input(s) > ‘Choose Voltage Input’ > Calibration. Step 1 Insert a ground wire into the pin of the input you are configuring. -

Gauge Min This is the minimum scale for Gauge View. Gauge Max This is the maximum scale for Gauge View. Battery Capacity Label Battery Battery Voltage Current Capacity Remaining The true capacity of a battery is dependent on the rate of discharge. The faster the rate of discharge, the less total Ah capacity can be delivered. - Page 19 Example: 8G4D 180A/Hr Battery Discharge 1 = 24 hours @ 7.8 Amps Discharge 2 = 8 hours @ 20.7 Amps n = log T2 - log T1 log A1 - log A2 = log 8 - log 24 log 7.8 - log 20.7 = 0.90 -1.38 0.89 - 1.32 = 0.48...
- Page 20 Step 1 Ensure both Battery Voltage and Current are calibrated. Refer to DC Current & DC Voltage Calibration section. Step 2 Check ‘Voltage Input’ and ‘Current Input’ settings. They should be linked to the same battery you are calibrating the Capacity for. Step 3 Enter the Maximum Capacity for the Battery.

Step 4 Add the next increment of fluid calculated in step 2 into the tank. Select ’25.0%’ and then ‘Enter’ to save set point. Repeat the process for 37.5%, 50%, 62.5%, 75%, 87.5% and Full. Mode: Custom Use custom mode if the set point voltage values are already known from a previous tank meter setup. -
Page 23: Mimic
Go to Main Menu > Setup > Input(s) > ‘Choose SOM Input’ > Settings Active State This setting is how the meter decides the Circuit is on, either in Active High or Active Low. High Voltage The volts value for an Active High State. Low Voltage The volts value for an Active Low State. -

Active State The Active State is set to determine when the pump is on, either in Active High or Active low. When the voltage is equal to or greater than ‘High Voltage’ setting, it is considered Active High. When the voltage is equal to or less than ‘Low Voltage’ setting, it is considered Active Low. High Voltage The volts value for an Active High state. - Page 26 When an alarm is active you will see an Alarm Window for each active alarm and the buzzer/external alarm will sound. The Alarm Window will tell you which input is alarming and what type of alarm it is i.e. Low On or Low Voltage. The label for all alarming circuits will be red also. To remove the Alarm Window from the Status Page you have 2 options: Disable the alarm You will get no further alarms from this input until it is re-enabled.
- Page 27 Global Alarms Use this setting to disable or enable all alarms. Note: This overwrites all enabled alarms so you will not receive any further warnings until global alarms are enabled again. Input Alarm Settings Go to Main Menu > Setup > Input(s) > ‘Choose Input’ > Alarm Enabled Use this setting to disable the alarms for the selected input.

Scroll Mode The scroll mode is how the meter changes from one Status Page to the next. Manual mode requires the user to press the Up or Down button to move through pages. Automatic mode will change between pages at a predetermined hold time (see below). Hold Time The hold time is the time it takes for the meter to change from one Status Page to the next in Automatic Scroll mode. - Page 30 There are 5 types of inputs that are assigned to specific pins (DC Voltage, DC Current, Pump, Tank & SOM). There are also 2 different page views that take data from designated Inputs and display as Text or Graphics (Mimic & Battery).
