7 Logging and data connections
7.1 SD card formatting
The FCPM takes a micro SD card. This logs health and performance data as well
as fault codes. The micro SD card format must be FAT32. No files are required for
initial operation, the FCPM will create the necessary files for operation.
7.2 SD card data format
The following folder structure must exist for the FCPM to log correctly (the system
automatically generates this folder):
\\IntelligentEnergy\data
Micro SD card presence must be detected for the FCPM to start up.
7.3 Configuration format
The behaviour of the FCPM can be adjusted via the configuration file. This is set
at build but can be adjusted if required. Please contact Intelligent Energy Product
Support for the necessary tools.
The configuration file has the following parameters:

7.3.1 Configuration parameter definitions
Target Output Voltage
The voltage the FCPM will output at if delivering
at or less than rated power (2.4kW).
Battery Charging Current Limit
Maximum current that the combined SPMs will
deliver to the batteries.
SPM Power Limit
Maximum power that each SPM can deliver to
the output load and the batteries combined.
