Battery display
The battery display indicates the battery capacity and the load current of the
living area battery as well as the battery voltage of living area battery and
starter battery. If available, the solar current of living area battery and starter
battery is also displayed.
The control and switch panel is equipped with a real level display for the living
area battery. The display of the battery capacity gives direct information on
how much power is stored in the battery.
Example: The battery has been fully charged (100 %) and the motorhome has
not been connected to a 230 V power supply for 3 days. The display indicates
40 %. That means that the battery can supply the motorhome with power for
about 2 more days.
