The Data Menu
This is a quick summary of the screens in the data submenu
which are reached by a long push on the DATA screen and the
values stored each day by the history function.
VMAX Maximum battery voltage since midnight.
VMIN
Minimum battery voltage since midnight.
FTIM
Time of day the controller entered the Float state
if it didn’t begin in float (see page 17).
SOC
Percentage estimate of the state of charge of the
battery based on amp hours in/out. A very rough ‘fuel
gauge’.
TEMP
Temperature being sensed by the battery temperature
sensor (if attached).
SOLV
Solar panel open circuit voltage.
NB: charging stops while displaying this screen.
HIST
Entry point for history data display. (See page 16)
At midnight, IN, OUT, VMAX, VMIN, FTIM and SOC are stored
in the history data and reset. VMAX and VMIN respond very
slowly to changes in battery voltage. This allows them to ignore
short term voltage fluctuations.
