LinkLITE Quick Start Guide
This column decribes the absolute minimum number of required steps in order to
setup your Battery Monitor.
When all fuses are installed, the battery monitor will startup with a blinking
display in MAIN battery voltage readout selection. When pushing one of the
three buttons, the LCD stops blinking and you can navigate through all readout
selections using the V, A/Ah and % keys. The battery monitor now operates in
the Normal Operating Mode. The following readout selections can be made :
The display also indicates SYCHRONIZE. As will be further explained in the
owner’s manual, this message means that the battery needs to be fully charged
first, in order to synchronize the battery monitor with the battery.
Otherwise, the State-of-charge readout will be invalid. The more often you are
fully charging your batteries, the more precise the battery monitor will
indicate all parameters. This will also result in a longer lifetime of your
batteries.
Before the batteries can be fully charged, you first need to adjust or check the following Functions:
Function F01 (Battery capacity), F02 (Charger’s float voltage) and F05 (low
battery alarm in Volts).
Setting these Functions to the right values, will in most cases result in a
correctly operating battery monitoring system.
Please follow the instructions in the Owner’s manual on how to adjust or check
all Functions.
