The CHRG screen displays the sum of the internal and exernal
currents. By doing a long push on the CHRG screen you can see
how much each device contributes to the total charge.
The first screen is called CINT and displays the internal charge.
The next screen(s) display any currents reported by external
devices. (For details, see the reference manual)
What is the load current?
The top level LOAD screen displays the load (or discharge)
current. This is the total current used by all loads. A long push
will display the internal load current (LINT). Further short pushes
will display any external load currents.
How full is the battery?
The voltage level of your battery is a good measure of how full it
is, and is shown on the top-level “BATV” screen. Alternatively,
SOC in the DATA sub-menu (long-push on DATA, then three
short-pushes) uses amp-hour, voltage & temperature data to
provide an estimate of the state of charge.
Warning: SOC will be less accurate if the controller is not
measuring all the charge and discharge from the battery or
there is no battery temperature sensor fitted.
For example, if an inverter is connected directly to the battery,
an external shunt and an external shunt adaptor is needed so that
the controller can include the inverter current in its calculations.
(There will also be inaccuracy due to temperature and the age of the battery).
