FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
8.1
On the left side of the front panel are the digital voltmeter and digital ammeter.
These meters form the option MP and read battery voltage and current. The
ammeter requires an external 50mV shunt. See Figure 2 and Section 15.3.
8.2
At the center of the panel is a green/red LED alarm which is normally green
but turns red upon failure of the PCM500 Control and Monitor System.
8.3
On the right side are four terminals for reading amperes and volts, the battery
current and voltage, using external meters.
8.4
Next, in order, are the voltage adjustment potentiometers VFL, OV, UV, TC
and VEQ, whose functions are explained in Section 11.0.
8.5
Next is the EQ/FL switch for switching the rectifiers between equalize and
