DC Load Control Mode
The C-Series can also operate as a load control (also called a low voltage
disconnect) to manage the discharging of the battery. A load controller
prevents damage to the battery from over-discharge during periods of poor
weather or excessive loads.
When used in load control mode, ensure that the operating mode jumpers
are on the load control pins. See
Configuring the C-Series
section of this
booklet.
The controller delays disconnecting the DC loads for 6 minutes after the
voltage drops below the low voltage disconnect (LVD) setting. Loads are
either automatically or manually reconnected when battery voltage exceeds the
low-voltage reconnect (LVR) setting for 6 minutes. The EQUALIZE jumper
determines manual or automatic reconnect when the C-Series is used as a load
controller.
When used as a DC load controller, the settings of the LVR and LVD are
controlled by two rotary potentiometers on the circuit board. The scale on the
adjustment potentiometers differ from the scale used for other functions. A
decal with the appropriate adjustment scale is included with the C-Series and
shown below. Place this scale over the pots when using the C-Series as a
load controller. Do not temperature-compensate these settings. Do not install
the optional battery temperature compensation sensor.
