BATTERY CAPACITY SET-UP AND WIRING
This refers to the actual capacity of the battery in amp hours. When a new
battery is fitted, set this to the nominal battery capacity (as marked on the
battery); doing this will assist the software in determining actual capacity.
As BatteryCheck learns the battery capacity, it will automatically update this
parameter. Following initial installation, the battery capacity will appear as
50%. Over time, BatteryCheck will be able to read the battery state of charge
and health, and present an accurate indication of battery capacity.
Important: Please remember that in order to keep track of battery capacity,
BatteryCheck device must measure all current in and out of the battery.
This is achieved by connecting BatteryCheck between the battery negative
terminal and all negative connections. This means that all new connections
must be wired to the end of BatteryCheck that is not connected to the
terminal. Positive connections are simply wired as normal (e.g. to the positive
terminal of the battery).
