Battery Activation Panel- Operation
The battery activation panel uses a direct current
(DC) battery supply to perform all functions.
Each button displays a continuous blue ring when
the power is available to that button function. When
a button is depressed to activate a switch the blue
lit ring changes to a red ring indicating that current
is flowing through the entire circuit.
As an example,
when the stbd. battery button is depressed the lit blue
ring changes to red indicating the starboard engine
battery circuit is engaged and it is ready for starting
the starboard engine. In the course of depressing the
button a magnetic induction process at the starboard
automatic battery switch (located in the sump on the
battery switch board) occurred due to current in the
circuit pulling a magnetic latch down and holding the
automatic battery switch in a closed position. This
permits starboard engine battery availability to start
starboard engine.
