5. Configuring and operating the
system
5.1. General
The Controller CIP is the
basic
controller available with the Lorain CIP
power systems. On the Controller CIP, there are some settings that require
hardware adjustments by means of DIP switches.
The System Manager CIP is the
advanced
controller available with the
Lorain CIP and Lorain CIP Access power systems. On the System Manager
CIP, there are absolutely no hardware based adjustments, such as
potentiometers or switches; all adjustments and controls are software driven.
Some can be set by navigating locally through the controller menus by using
the screen and push buttons on the unit, while all can be set by navigating
remotely through the web-based remote graphical user interface (GUI) by
using a computer locally or remotely connected in one of the ports on the
unit.
The controller, upon insertion of the rectifiers, automatically sets the float
voltage of the rectifiers in the system. However, should the controller fail or
be removed from the system, or the communication be lost between the
controller and the rectifiers, these then revert to the factory-set default value
of –52.1 V dc.
The controller communicates with all the rectifiers in the system through a
data bus using the CAN protocol.
5.2. Voltage
levels
Operating and alarm voltage levels for the Lorain CIP and Lorain CIP Access
power systems are dependent upon the type of batteries being used with the
system and whether the temperature compensation function is used or not.
5.3. Controller
CIP
Configure a Lorain CIP power system equipped with a Controller CIP as
described in the following subsections.
