Operation
C h a p t e r F o u r
The following section describes in detail the operation of the SP PRO. A good understanding of the
operation of the unit is not necessary. However, knowing how the system works will enable you to
understand the programmed settings and allow you to change the user settings to suit your own needs
as required.
The SP PRO Battery management continuously monitors the system operation. This monitoring allows the
SP PRO to automatically start the generator to keep the battery system charged or if the load is sufficient,
start to supply the load directly. The monitoring includes any input from renewable sources and any
loads directly connected to the battery bank.
The SP PRO uses a five stage temperature compensated battery charging system. This system gives a
high degree of flexibility so it can charge the multitude of battery types available.
Also incorporated is a programmable generator scheduler. These schedules can be set to meet regular
system loads. At a particular time the generator can be running ready to meet those loads which are
better powered directly from the generator.
Battery Management
Please refer to the battery manufacturer’s documentation for recommendations regarding
settings for your particular battery. Inappropriate settings may have a detrimental affect on
your battery life and performance.
The SP PRO provides comprehensive battery management settings and control to allow a
charge regime to achieve optimal battery life.
