Applications
7.3
Voltage Calibration
•
Measure the voltage across Pack+ and Pack- with a calibrated meter.
•
Type the voltage value in mV into
Enter Actual Voltage
.
•
Measure the temperature for PACK.
•
Type the temperature value into Enter Actual Temperature.
•
Press the
Calibrate Voltage and Temperature
as indicated below button.
7.4
Board Offset Calibration
This performs the offset calibration for the current offset of the board. It takes approximately 35 seconds to
complete.
It is expected that no current is flowing through the sense resistor while performing this calibration step.
Remove load and short PACK– to GND.
Press the
Calibration Board Offset
button.
7.5
Pack Current Calibration
•
Connect a load to GND and SYS that draws approximately 1 A, or connect a current source to GND
and Pack–. Ensure that the Measured Current reported is negative, or else reverse the connections.
•
Measure the current with a calibrated meter, and type the value into Enter Actual Current using (-) for
current in discharge direction.
•
Press the
Calibrate Gas Gauge
button.
