Bmk Meters - Magnum Energy ME-ARC Owner's Manual

http://www.wholesalesolar.com/inverter_systems.html
3.0 Setup
• 03B DC Volts-AGS: This menu displays the DC voltage measured at
pins 3 and 4 of the ME-AGS-N module. This menu is useful in setting
up the voltage start for the AGS and for troubleshooting the operation
of the AGS.
Info: The DC voltage reading in this menu may vary from the DC
voltage reading in menu "01A DC Volts" and "04C DC Volts-BMK".
Each DC voltage reading is taken at a different place in the system
and therefore there may be wire losses or connections that make
the readings differ. It is important when troubleshooting the system
to read the appropriate related meter for each device i.e. when
troubleshooting the AGS use "03B DC Volts-AGS" for verifi cation
and testing purposes.
•
03C Gen Run Time: This menu displays the time the generator has been
running since the AGS auto started the generator. This menu does not
display run time when the generator has been manually started.
Info: This hour meter resets each time the generator is stopped.
This meter is useful when trying to determine how long the generator
has been running in the auto mode if you were not present when it
started. This meter does not replace the hour meter for total hours
the generator has run.
• 03D AGS Temp: The menu displays the temperature of the AGS Temp
sensor (included with ME-AGS-N, but use is optional) and is helpful in
determining proper placement and operation of the AGS temp sensor.
• 03E Days Since GenRun: This menu displays the number of days since
the generator has last run. This menu is useful in determining if the AGS
start and stop settings are set up correctly.
Info: This meter resets whenever the generator is either auto
started, exercised or manually started. The meter reads the B+ signal
provided by the generator to the AGS module for this meter.

04 BMK Meters

• 04 BMK Meters: These meters display the reading from the optional
ME-BMK, if installed.
• 04A BMK Status: There are 3 status menus to determine what state
the BMK is in.
BMK Ready: This indicates there is an optional ME-BMK installed in the
system, and that it is powered and communicating with the ME-ARC.
Power-up Fault: This indicates the ME-BMK has failed to properly
power-up during normal installation procedures. Refer to the ME-BMK
manual for troubleshooting information.
No Comm: This indicates the ME-BMK is not communicating with the
ME-ARC. The most common causes are; No ME-BMK installed in the
system, bad network cable, no power to the ME-BMK. Refer to the
ME-BMK for troubleshooting information.
Info: These menus allow the optional ME-BMK (Magnum Energy's
Battery Monitor Kit) - if installed - to display the status of the
battery system; refer to the ME-BMK Owner's Manual (part number
64-0013) for detailed information on the Battery Monitor Kit and
these menus.
