Power-Up Of The Equipment - Studer VarioTrack VT-40 User Manual

recommended to install only one RCC module at the end of a 300m line or a max of 2 modules at
the end of a 150m line. All the other modules of the system must be placed within the same radius of
a few meters (technical room).
A maximum of 2 RCC-02/-03 or Xcom-232i may be connected to the same communication
line with a VarioTrack. For more information, refer to the RCC-02/-03 or Xcom-232i manuals
available on our website at the following address: www.studer-innotec.com/support
The communication bus will be used to interconnect other VarioTrack chargers in the case of a multi-
unit application or to connect other types of users who have Studer Innotec's proprietary protocol
(Xtender, BSP). In these cases, the installation must be switched off and de-energized in order to
interconnect the units on the communication bus.
If a VarioString is connected to another compatible device (Xtender, VarioTrack, BSP, RCC,
Xcom) with the same communication bus, it is highly recommended to make a software
update of all components in the system in order to guarantee all functionalities.
The RCC-02/03 or Xcom-232i should not be placed between two devices connected to
the battery (Xtender, VarioTrack, or VarioString).

5 POWER-UP OF THE EQUIPMENT

It is imperative that the closing cover for the connection compartment is installed and
screwed tight before energizing the installation. There are dangerous voltages inside the
cable compartment.
If special configurations or settings are required for the system and they are set via internal
buttons or switches (DIP switch, see chap. 8.1), they should be set before connecting the
PV modules.
The connection of the VarioTrack must be carried out in the following order. Any disassembly shall be
carried out in the reverse order. Before closing the protections and energizing the equipment, check
the polarity.
A. Connecting the battery: on the BAT+ and BAT- terminals
Check that the VarioTrack switches on.
o
o If there is an RCC-02/-03 during commissioning:
▪
▪
B. Connecting the photovoltaic panels: on the PV+ and PV- terminals
Check the PV voltage seen on the RCC.
o
o Check the operation of the charger and the effective charging of the batteries
when it is sunny.
Your installation is now in operation. If the system requires specific configurations or settings, carry
them out immediately. Settings must be programmed by means of the remote control RCC-02/-03
as per chap. 8.2 or by means of the internal DIP switches as per chap. 8.1.
