MLI Ultra 12/2750, 12/5500, 24/5500 – User and Installation Manual Click the (last) battery’s Open relay button. Check if the button on the safety relay unlatches (REMOTE OFF). Keep the safety relay in this position. Install all fuses. Verify that the current of the battery is 0A on the monitoring/metering page.
MLI Ultra 12/2750, 12/5500, 24/5500 – User and Installation Manual 11. STORAGE The battery should be stored in a dry and well-ventilated environment. The rate of self-discharge is less than 5% per month. High or low ambient temperature affects the self-discharge rate of the batteries and natural aging.
All devices that are compatible with MasterBus are marked with the MasterBus symbol. MasterBus is a CAN based, fully decentralized data network for communication between Mastervolt devices. MasterBus is used as power management system for all connected equipment, such as the inverter, battery charger, generator and many more.
A display like the SmartRemote or EasyView 5, can be used to monitor the MLI Ultra. Advanced configuration can be done in MasterAdjust, from a Windows laptop or notebook connected to the MLI Ultra via a Mastervolt USB Interface. The following tables list the parameters as shown in MasterAdjust.

Before the battery reaches the limits of the operating specifications, the Stop Charge event is triggered. When configured, this event forces the Mastervolt charger to switch to the float stage. The charger will use a lower charger voltage or, in case of parallel connection, switch off. The event will be active for 10 minutes.
MLI Ultra 12/2750, 12/5500, 24/5500 – User and Installation Manual How to activate MasterBus powering This is done in two parts: • First, set the DIP switches. • Secondly, open MasterAdjust on a notebook/laptop or PC, connected to the MasterBus network via a USB Interface.
MLI Ultra 12/2750, 12/5500, 24/5500 – User and Installation Manual ® 14. CZONE The CZone network is an NMEA 2000-compliant CAN-based system. In a CZone network, the MLI Ultra can be monitored from a remote panel like the Touch 5. The settings can only be adjusted with the CZone Configuration Tool.
