Configuration
With the help of screws, the ES5392.1 can be configured as battery node simu-
lation with voltage supply from an external power supply or as high current
switch. The digital inputs and outputs of the ES5392.1 can be adjusted to an
external power supply with the help of jumpers.
2.5.1
Configuration as Battery node Smulation or High Current Switch
By installing screws (with combined hexagon nuts, lock washer and washer) in
the screw positions shown in Fig. 2-4, you can configure the ES5392.1 as battery
node simulation or as high current switch.
What is meant by battery node configuration or high current switch configura-
tion is explained by the block diagram Fig. 3-1 on page 32.
Every individual channel can be configured independently of the others either as
battery node simulation or as high current switch.

Torque
0.8 Nm
WARNING!
Fire hazard!
The reconfiguration of the channels with screws may not be per-
formed more than 25 times. The maximum permissible torque of 0.8
Nm must not be exceeded. Non-observance may lead to damage to
the contacts.
If the screws are loosened and tightened too many times or tightened
too loosely, the electrical contacts could deteriorate. This can lead to
high thermal losses (hot spots), arc discharges and high voltage drop.
