  • Page 24: Initial Data Screen

    Starting the Program 8.1 Starting the Program Run EV2200-xxH from the Start|Programs|EV2200-xxH menu sequence. The software requests the PC communications port the first time it is run after installation. Choose the Retry Auto-detection button for automatic port configuration. After the port is detected, the software displays the bq2014H data screen.
  • Page 25: Setup Screen

    Initialization Figure 8–2. Setup Screen Enter the corresponding resistor values in the Circuit Configuration box. These values can be saved to disk using the Save Setup to Disk button so that they are automatically called up when the program loads. Table 8–1.

    Status Screen 8.4 Status Screen The Status screen graphically illustrates bq2014H operation. The program shows the average current activity as well as the temperature and remaining capacity of the battery under evaluation. Figure 8–4. Status Screen 8.5 Pro Screen The Pro screen allows read and write access to all the registers of the bq2014H.
  • Page 28: Data Logging

    Status Screen To read or write a location: Enter the address location of the register in the Address box. The register and address can be selected from the pulldown menu. Enter the data to be written if applicable. Depress the Read or Write button. The Send Break button sends a communication timing reset signal to the bq2014H and should be depressed each time a bq2014H-based batter is con- nected to the EV2200.
