Regulator Programming Methods
Regulator Programming Methods
With the introduction of the MC-618, there are now three ways to program your regulator
1.
Using the Magnetic Reed Switch and the Balmar Programming Tool (Magnetic Screwdriver
)
Just like the superseded model
MC-614
2.
The SG200 Color Display (Basic, but not Advanced Programming)
3.
With a SG200 AND SG2-0300 Bluetooth® Gateway, you can perform Basic and Advanced Programming via the Balmar App
Using the SG200 Color Display
When connected to the SmartLink™ Network, the Color Display of the SG200 may be used to:
1.
Perform Basic programming by selecting a Battery Profile
2.
Turn the Alternator Failure Advisory on/off (Shows on Regulator display only)
3.
Set the regulator display to long/short mode
4.
Change the Max Field Percentage of the regulator when operating. In previous regulators, this was known as Belt Manager
For more information on how to use the Color Display to change MC-618 settings, see the SG200 manual.
NOTE
: When a battery program is changed, all settings under Advanced Settings will be replaced with the new battery
program’s default settings. This means that any changes to advanced settings previously made will be erased.
Using the Bluetooth® Gateway (SG2-0300 optional) and the Balmar App
The Bluetooth® Gateway can be used to connect the Balmar App to all devices on the Smar
-
tLink™ Network. When connected to the SmartLink™ Network and the MC-618, the Balmar App
may be used to:
1.
Monitor the real-time performance of the MC-618 regulator
2.
Perform Basic Programming by selecting a Battery Profile
3.
Create, save and load Advanced Programming configurations
NOTE:
The Bluetooth® Gateway CANNOT be connected directly to the
MC-618, as the regulator cannot power the Bluetooth® Gateway. The
MC-618 must be connected to a SmartLink™ network, typically a SG200 Battery Monitor.
NOTE:
