Does  the design feature that  allows  connection in height  also provide a mechanical lock like the 
module connectors do? 

No, they don’t lock in the same way, it is more for stability. 

Do you sell copper bus bars for parallel connection of batteries? 

No, but this should be possible to organize with our distributors of the ASB range. Contact details are 
available on our website or in the Technical Handbook.  

Do you sell CAN bus cables with the correct length for connection between cells? 

No, but this should be possible to organize with our distributors of the ASB range. Contact details are 
available on our website or in the Technical Handbook.  

13.7 

General 

How can the shutdown timer be configured?  

The  default  value  is  3h  and  the  value  of  the  shutdown  timer  can  be  set  via  object  0x3F00.4.  This  is 
only  for  standalone  modules,  not  multi-module  systems.  Multi-

module  systems  don’t  support  this 

function. 

Steps to follow: 

1. Code for write permission 
Write value 1815dez to object 0x2010.1   

2.Timer value (in seconds) 
Write value to object 0x3F00.4 (e.g. 604,800dez for 7 days) 

 3. Save changed parameter permanently 
Write 7211dez to object 0x2010.1 

We  want  to  replace  the  batteries  for  charge  and  would  like  a  platform  that  would  monitor  the 
battery level. This would recognize when the battery level had dropped below a set limit and signal 
that the batteries need replacing (by an operator). Is this possible to implement? 

Yes,  the  batteries  will  be  able  to  support  this  monitoring.  We  recommend  you  consider  a  proper 
shutdown of the system before removing or replacing and run testing before release to make sure the 
system configures correctly and behaves as expected in the field when replaced (and reset).
