modules are stacked 2-deep on three levels, allowing for
up to 6 modules to be connected in a series. In systems
with less than 6 modules, a PWRcell battery can be
upgraded with additional modules up to a total of 6 mod-
ules.
Whenever upgrading a PWRcell battery:
• A Vset Function must be performed. See
Vset Function.
• A module spacer must be installed on any single
module shelf. See
(PWRcell 9 and PWRcell 15

Using Vset Function
