Page 4: Charging The Battery
Charging the battery: When charging the battery, the charge status is indicated by the status LED: Orange Initialization phase / Fast charge: First check that the voltage > 0.8V/cell and the temperature within [-10°C;+40°C] If temperature > 50°C , charge duration will be longer ... -
Page 5: Using The Battery
This function allows recovering energy from a motor or a reversible device powered by the Smart Module. It is recommended to start to use the battery when the battery temperature is in the -10°C to +40°C range. - Page 6 If the Smart Module temperature reaches 65°C, the discharge is stopped by the control system to protect the battery. In this case the status LED will turn off and the gas gauge indicator will still indicate the real battery state of charge when pushing the button.

(main poles and charge pins on Specific charge and communication connector) and displays a defect signal on the status LED for one minute. If the defect disappears, the Smart Module can be restarted by pushing the gas gauge button. Flashing Defect, battery disconnected ... -
Page 8: Gas Gauge
Gas gauge: To check the available capacity left in the battery, press the push button. The 5-level display corresponds to the following state of charge: Battery Status Status Status Status Status state of charge 0%-10% 10%-30% 30%-50% 50%-80% 80%- 100% ... -
Page 9: State Of Health
State of health: The Smart Module includes a state of health (SOH) indicator that calculates the battery ageing and allows anticipating the end of life. To check the state of health of the battery, depress the push button for >2 seconds. - Page 10 CAUTION: NEVER • Immerse the battery or pour water on the battery. • Use improper CCPS to charge the battery. • Reverse charging of the battery. • Open battery outside of authorized network, disassemble the battery blocks or cells (be aware that alkaline electrolyte is contained inside, and electrolyte exposure can be harmful).
- Page 11 For 12 V and 24 V batteries, a 32V rated ATO fuse @15A for charge and @40A(Only for VH module) for discharge is required (Use a fuse @30A for a VHT Smart Module). • For 36 V batteries, a 58V rated fuse @15A for charge and @40A(Only for VH module) for discharge is required.
