Temperature Probes
Up to three, battery temperature probes (sold separately) may be installed for
battery temperature compensation. Attach the probe (either a ring terminal
or paddle style) to a battery and insert the cable connector end into the
mating end of the probe; connect the other end into the temperature probe
inputs denoted as T1, T2, and T3 from left to right. See DO600000039 –
Temperature Probe Sensor manual for more installation information.
Temperature compensation must be enabled for the system to take
advantage of the temperature probes. See section 7.6 for instructions on
setting up thermal compensation. Assuming thermal compensation is
enabled, the controller will automatically setup itself to monitor temperature
via the external probes.

Alarm Cable Connection
Six form C alarm relays are available through a connector labeled ALM in
Figure 1. To access these alarms, use the cable (sold separately), that has a
shelf mating connector on one end and bare tinned wire on the other.
Available alarm cables are CA210203104 (10ft), CA210203105 (50ft), and
CA210203106 (100ft). Plug the connector end into the ALM connector on
the controller. As for the non-connectorized end, the alarm cable provides
both normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) alarms. Therefore
choose the proper alarm polarity and connect it and the common (C) to the
alarming equipment.
Table 2 is a list of alarm contacts and the corresponding color code of the
alarm cable. The alarm names in Table 2 are based on the Valere default
controller with profile number 01 (PN 01). Your profile number may be
