Manual M-series MA1479-1.doc Foreword M-series are monitoring units for DC-systems with voltage range 9 – 300 VDC. For monitoring of DC-voltage, DC-current, earth fault and AC-voltage and also triggering of battery test. Settings are easily made with buttons on the front panel and momentary value/setting is shown in the display.

Manual M-series MA1479-1.doc Buttons B-test: Start/stop battery test. If no battery test is in progress the battery test is started with the length that is set by using the ”length-button”. If pressed while battery test is in progress the battery test is stopped. Both manual and automatically started tests can be stopped.
Manual M-series MA1479-1.doc Service menu The service menu is used for calibration and other settings. It is used when testing the unit before leaving the factory and can be used when the installer wants to adapt the units in a more advanced way than is being offered by only using the normal settings.

Manual M-series MA1479-1.doc Calibration of DC-voltage. Connect calibrated V-meter in the V-meter output. Press Display button and use +/- to set the same value in display as the V-meter is showing. Release Display button. Calibration is finished. Calibration of earth fault display is recommended after calibration of voltage. The unit is calibrated before delivery from factory.

Manual M-series MA1479-1.doc Set battery test voltage level (only M300). Set this to a level just above the level the rectifier is set to when doing battery test. The monitoring unit triggers the rectifier to go to battery test level with the battery test relay. At the same time the monitoring unit is measuring the DC-voltage from the rectifier/battery.

Manual M-series MA1479-1.doc Setting of low input voltage protection level. Press display and use +/- to set level. When DC voltage is below set level the unit shuts off. When the DC-voltage goes back above set voltage (plus hysteresis) the unit turns on. The level cannot be set more than 95% of the momentary DC-voltage.

Manual M-series MA1479-1.doc Technical data Input voltage 9-36 VDC, 18-75 VDC eller 70-300 VDC Alarm levels High DC voltage/low DC voltage: Measuring the DC-voltage. Alarm level possible: 1-300V. Earth fault: Alarm level possible: 50-1000Kohm. Delay of all alarms except battery test: 1-1800 sec or blocking. Separate settings for level/delay: High DC voltage, low DC voltage 1, low DC voltage 2, earth fault +/-, battery test level (only M300), mains fault with AC-input (only M300).
