Configuration File
The operational settings of the dc power system are stored in a configuration file loaded into
the SC200 or SC100 system controller.
The SC200 or SC100 is supplied pre-loaded with a configuration file. If this configuration file
has been customized for the site then no further configuration changes will be necessary.
Otherwise, it is important that the settings of this configuration file are checked and changed
as required for site-specific conditions. In particular, settings that may affect the performance
and life expectancy of the battery must be checked and set according to the battery
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Some settings in the configuration file can be edited using the system controller's keypad (see
details on page
), or all settings can be edited using a PC/laptop with DCTools/Web (see
details on page
) or remotely, see Communications Options in the System Controller
Operation Handbook.
Backup and Restore
The configuration file settings in the SC200 or SC100 can be saved to (Backup) or loaded from
(Restore) a PC/laptop using DCTools/Web.
Backup and Restore can be used to:
•
Load a standard (master) configuration file into an SC200 or SC100 for customization.
•
Copy a customized configuration file from one SC200 or SC100 to others (at similar
sites).
•
Save a copy of a customized configuration file. This is recommended in case the SC200
or SC100 has to be replaced.
