USER'S MANUAL
SECTION 1: STATUS DISPLAY
The LR-24 has
3 standard screens
referred to as "status
screens" that are displayed during operation.
Specifically, they are:
• The input status screen.
• The output status screen.
• The waveform screen.
1.) INPUT STATUS SCREEN
A sample input status screen is shown in
Figure 1.1
.
The first line shows the shocking time in seconds. The LR-24
keeps track of fractions of a second but only displays 1
second resolution. The second line shows battery condition
in a fuel gauge fashion. 24.0V or more and the fuel gauge
shows full. At approximately 20.5V the gauge shows empty.
At 20.0V the LR-24 shuts off the output because of a low
battery. The third line is the battery meter. It shows the
battery voltage and the battery current in amps. The LR-24
overloads and shuts off its output if the battery current
reaches 20.0A or more. The fourth line displays the air
temperature in the box and the temperature of the heat sink
(HS).
See Safety Features, under Temperature Sensors on page
22, for a description of operating temperatures parameters.
Refer to System Menu 4 on page 11 for an explanation of
Thermal Power Foldback feature.
2.) OUTPUT STATUS SCREEN
A sample output status screen is shown in
Figure 1.2
.
The first line shows the shocking time in seconds. The
second line shows the average and peak power in
parentheses that the LR-24 is putting into the water. This
peak reading is calculated by multiplying together the
peak output voltage and peak output current. The average
power is calculated by multiplying the peak power by the
duty cycle. The third line shows the average output voltage
and the peak output voltage in parentheses. The fourth line
shows the average output current in amps and the peak
output current in amps in parentheses.

SECTION 1
When first turning on the LR-24, a screen will briefly appear displaying the model number,
software version, and Smith-Root, Inc.'s web address. The status display screen will
automatically appear after a few seconds.
