DVS100 Installation, Operation and Maintenance
IMPORTANT INFORMATION – SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

3 System Description

The keypad and display provide the user interface to the charger. The display constantly updates
the charger and battery status, and allows access to the programming menus through the keypad.
Four (4) status LEDs indicate when a charge is in progress, at 80% complete, fully charged, or in
equalization. A fault/warning LED serves to alert the user to fault conditions.
The DVS100 works with a small monitoring device mounted on the battery called the battery
monitor/identifier (BMID). As shown in Figure 3- 1, when a vehicle equipped with a BMID connects
to the charger, the charger communicates with the BMID to ensure optimal charging.
Figure 3- 1 Components of the Charging System
Typically, the battery dealer or another authorized service technician will install the BMID on the
battery and configure it before delivery to the customer. BMIDs may also be configured on site
(see the "BMID Programming Manual").
through the charger front panel
Many different sizes and types of industrial battery packs may be charged with the DVS100.
