- Use the 2-pole connector to connect the external pushbutton.
- Now connect the red ring-type connector to the positive pole of the 12 V battery.
For this just clamp the ring under the screw nut, that’s used to tighten the vehicle’s power cable to the battery’s positive pole.
In addition for the 24V variant:
- There is a brown wire with a ring-type connector next to the red one. Attach this to the positive pole of the second battery. Make sure that the wiring fits the schematic, shown on the right.
- Connect the red wire to the ignition.
- The installation of your IBM is now finished. If you switch on the ignition, the device should start up.
CONFIGURATION
INTELLIGENT BATTERY MONITOR APP
- To configure the IBM system, some parameters must be calibrated, like the gauge type, the sensor and its calibration or the warning threshold.
- This is possible through the “VL Flex Configurator” smartphone App, which can be downloaded free of charge from the stores of both Android and iOS devices.
- A simple and detailed explanation of the configuration process is also available as in-app instructions.
- Thanks to the passive embedded NFC receiver, the VL Flex 52 can be configured, as described below, without the need of a power supply.
- The setup of the VL Flex device is an intuitive three-step process.
- Please remember that you must READ from the device before being able to change and download the configuration to the instrument.
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
- READ THE VL FLEX CONFIGURATION Launch the “Intelligent Battery Monitor” App and read the current configuration of the device by “tapping” the smartphone onto the front lens.
- The READ operation is mandatory before the WRITE operation is allowed.
- After the readout, the App will be set with the current VL Flex configuration.
- NOTE: The antenna position on the smartphone depends on the model.
- Please refer to the smartphone manufacturer manual.
- CONFIGURE BATTERY PARAMETERS
- Use the first box to define which IBS is used.
- For the IBS Sensor to correctly work the type of battery must be defined. Use the second box to choose this parameter.
- Write the battery capacity in the last field of this section.
- NOTE: The type of the battery and its capacity can be found printed on the battery’s housing.
- CONFIGURE THE LEVEL SENSOR (OPTIONAL) Check the Resistive Input Switch in order to configure the VL Flex according to your Level Sensor.
- The first field is for defining, weather a Fuel Level Sensor or a Fresh Water Level Sensor is used.
- In the second field you must choose the resistance values of the used sensor.
- NOTE: The sensors resistor values depend on the Model. Please refer to the sensor manufacturer manual.
- SETUP THE ALARMS
- You can activate or deactivate the alarms by using the App switches.
- Use the field next to the switch, to define the value, at which the alarm should be triggered.
- CUSTOMIZE BACKLIGHT LEVELS AND UNITS
- You can complete the VL Flex configuration with the “Settings” tab.
- In this section, it is possible to adjust the day and night backlight intensity through the dedicated App slider.
- Here you can also choose your preferred unit for the temperature measurements. (Celsius or Fahrenheit)
- LOAD THE CONFIGURATION TO THE VL FLEX
- Once the configuration is completed, you can transfer it to the VL Flex.
- Press the “APPLY” button on the top/right corner of the App and near the smartphone again to the VL Flex lens as shown in the picture.

- the supported configurations may be updated at any time. Please make sure to always use the latest App version.
TIME FOR VALID SOC AND SOH
- The values “State Of Charge” (SOC) and “State Of Health” (SOH) can only be considered valid after the sensor had a “quiescent” time of 3.5 hours after finishing the sensor installation.
- Quiescent” time means that the current consumption of the whole vehicle electrical system must be between -100mA and 0mA for the whole recalibration time (3.5 hours).
- If there is a discharge peak during this time (e.g. radio turned on, etc.) the time for SOC recalibration will be longer than 3.5 hours.
- If there is an additional power on of the IBS sensor (e.g. IBS disconnected from the battery, or from the Link Up gateway) then the recalibration time of 3.5 hours starts again.
EXTERNAL CHARGING OF THE BATTERY
- If the battery is charged by an external power supply, it is important that the connection of the external charger is done properly.
- If the connection is performed incorrectly, the IBS will not be able to measure the charge current and it will not calculate the SOC correctly.
- Please connect the positive clamp of the charger to the battery pole and the negative clamp of the charger device to the IBS ground connection (where the vehicle ground is connected), and not directly to the negative pole of the battery.
- The charging current must flow through the IBS so it can correctly determine the charge balance.
DISPLAY LAYOUT
SCREEN CAROUSEL
- There are four different display layouts which can be scrolled through by pressing the push button.
- With every push the display changes to the next screen showing the next set of values.
- After the last screen, the display will roll over to the first one.
- The fourth screen shows the data from the resistive level sensor if the analog input is activated.
- The type of liquid (fuel or freshwater) must be configured on the VL Flex via the smartphone App during the system configuration.
- If there isn’t any sensor configured, the screen carousel only contains the first three screens.
First Screen
- On the upper half, the battery’s voltage is displayed. The unit is Volts.
- On the lower half, the current is displayed in Amps.
- The little arrow indicates in which direction the current flows. If the battery is being charged the arrow appears in green. While it’s red and pointing upwards during discharging.
Second Screen
- The value on the top shows the State of Health (SOH).
- This value indicates in which condition the battery is due to influences like aging. (Which percentage of its initial capacity is still available.)
- On the lower part, the battery’s temperature is indicated. The unit can be changed with the Intelligent Battery Monitor App.
Third Screen
- The state of charge is displayed on the third screen. The percentage is displayed in numbers and there is a coloured graph in the background, visually representing this value.
- The green lightning on the top middle part indicates that the battery is currently being charged. If it isn’t the lightning will disappear.
Fourth Screen
- On the last screen, the data from the resistive level sensor is displayed.
- In the app you can configure weather your system contains a fuel level sensor, a freshwater sensor, or no sensor at all.
- In the last case the fourth screen won’t be displayed, the screen will directly roll over to the first layout after the third.
CHARGE DISPLAY
- When the battery starts being charged, this notification will pop up on screen to notify the charging.
- This screen disappears after 2 seconds, and a charging symbol will be visible in the top side of the SOC screen.
- When the charging of the battery is interrupted, this notification will pop up on screen to notify the charging interruption.
- This screen disappears after 2 seconds, and the display returns to normal operation mode.
ALARM DISPLAY
- When an alarm occurs the bar graph turns red and a red alarm symbol is displayed in the top part of the display between the data symbol and the unit.
- The display returns to normal operation mode once the alarm is not detected anymore.
- When an alarm occurs on any of the two displayed data, the numeric digits of the affected data become red.
- In the example above, the bottom data on the screen (Exhaust Gas Temperature) has an alarm active.
- The display returns to normal operation mode once the alarm is not detected anymore.
