Standby function
To conserve the life of the connected battery, you can activate the standby function on your voltage converter. For this purpose
activate switch 3 on your device. Now the voltage converter is in standby mode. This reduces the own power consumption
significantly. Now the device checks whether load is connected in intervals of 20 seconds. When the voltage converter
recognizes a load above standby level (see technical specs), it connects the 230 AC output and is thus in normal operation
again.
USB output
The USB output may be used to supply various 5 V consumers with voltage.
Note:
This output is not suitable for data transmission.
Safety and protection mechanisms
Overvoltage shutdown
The voltage converter switches off as soon as the value of the input voltage exceeds the starting value.
Attention!
The voltage converter restarts automatically as soon as the voltage drops to the starting value.
Deep discharge protection
The voltage converter switches off as soon as the input voltage drops below the set value. This is to protect your battery against
deep discharge. The remote controls FB-02 and FB-03 are used to make your own adjustment of the deep discharge protection
individually between 9 V-11.5 V on the 12V version or 18-23 V on the 24V version. This adjustment is not possible without the
remote control FB-02 and FB-03. Ex works adjustment of the deep discharge protection for the 12 V versions is 10.5 V and 21 V
for the 24 V versions.
Attention!
The voltage converter restarts automatically, if the restart threshold is reached. This voltage converter series is
equipped with a dynamic deep discharge protection. I. e., at high output the deep discharge protection is automatically reduced
by up to maximum 1.0 V of the set value.
Note: The restart threshold is a permanently set value which cannot be changed. The value is 12.5 V for the 12 V
versions and 25 V for the 24 V versions.
Temperature-activated protective circuit
The voltage converter switches off when the temperature inside the device is too high.
Attention!
The voltage converter restarts automatically when it has reached its normal operating temperature.
Overload management
The voltage converter switches off when the output or the starting current of the connected devices is too high. Then the voltage
converter tries to restart (soft start). Should the device does not restart after repetitive attempts the voltage converter is not
suitable for the connected consumer.
Attention!
The device restarts automatically when the overload is disconnected from the voltage converter.
Short-circuit shutdown:
The voltage converter switches off when the output is short-circuited.
Attention!
The voltage converter restarts automatically when short-circuit is fixed.
Reverse polarity protection
The voltage converter is protected against reverse polarity. This means that your voltage converter continues to be functional
when you connect it with correct polarity
.
Operation with remote control
Optionally, all models of this voltage converter series may be operated with remote control. You may choose between three
various versions.
FB-01:
This model is a cable version which is directly connected to the voltage converter. It is equipped with an on/off switch
and two control indicators for DC input and AC output.
FB-02:
This model is also cable-connected to the voltage converter and is additionally equipped with an LC Display. The display
serves for both monitoring important values and making adjustments, e.g. deep discharge protection. The remote control is also
equipped with a SD card slot. This allows for storing important values and easily transferring them to your PC.
FB-03:
This model is a radio version. The receiver is connected to the voltage converter. The display offers the same functions
and adjustment features as the DSW FB-02 display.
Adress settings:
Address settings enable control and data readout for up to 4 converters with one LCD remote control. The converter is assigned
an address from 1 to 4 by changing the DIP switch position (see picture). This setting is only required if the Remote is used for
more than one DSW converter.
