Installation and Operating Manual
LCD-Charge Control S
No. 1247
Easy-to-use, comfortable Remote-Control and Information Unit, dedicated for the Battery Charger Series VBCS Triple and
VAC Triple (hereinafter called Triple).
It indicates the mode of operation, the charging phase, the battery voltages as well as the charging current. While charging
from solar, it shows the actual solar power (W) and for statistics there is a resettable energy-meter (Wh and Ah).
The mode of operation can be simply changed by pressing a single button. That means the 230V charging can be switched
off or it can be switched to charging on a reduced current (AC Power Limit). This is helpful with weak 230V grids. A special
protection logic is used to reactivate the AC charger if the battery is liable to be totally discharged.
The large, clear display has an illuminated LCD with superior readability and extremely low power consumption. With the
Plug and Play connection, it can easily be retrofitted at anytime, and because of the compact design it can be mounted at
almost any location.
The dimensions of the unit are perfectly adapted to the VOTRONIC modular system. The VOTRONIC modular system
includes the tank display units (fresh and sewage water, as well as feces), the LCD series (battery computer, voltmeter,
ammeter and thermometer), as well as the switch and fuse panels.
Please read the mounting instructions and operating manual including the safety regulations
completely prior to starting connection and start-up.
Installation and Connection
The small mounting depth (approx. 27 mm) of the electronic system allows flush mounting into furniture boards to ensure,
that an optimum installation place can always be chosen. The clear opening of the cutout is min. 71 x 66 mm to ensure safe
alignment of the front panel. Please use the delivered drilling jig, which has been designed to consider combination with
further display panels.
If possible, the rear cutout opening should be covered with electrically nonconducting material to ensure efficient
protection of the electronic system and full utilization of the storage space, which might be located behind.
The delivered control cable of 5 m length is used to connect the display unit to the VOTRONIC Battery Charger VBCS or VAC
Triple (connection “Display”). The connection is ready to be plugged in, and the cable should be laid according to the safety
instructions.
Now the unit is ready for operation.
If the length of the control cable is not sufficient for connection of the connection unit, an accessory extension cable of 5m
length (order No. 2005) is available. The total cable length is then 10 m.
The included control cable is specifically designed and tested for this application. It must be used for the
device to function properly. Using a seemingly similar cable can cause malfunction, which is not covered
by the guarantee.
Initial Start-up:
Connect the solar controller according to the instructions to be ready for operation, and make the plug-type connection
between display and VOTRONIC Triple. Now, also the LCD-Charge Control S is ready for operation.
