the Converter within the 16-bit range of 0-65535 for unsigned and -32768 to 32767 for signed 
values.

 

These scaling factors apply to re

ad only “measurement registers”, as well as read/write “setpoint 

registers” used to set desired output voltage, current, or power levels.  The setpoint registers are 
generally not utilized in 30C stand-alone applications.

In 30C3 applications, 

a DC power command of +1500 on DC3 will deliver 15 kW of “export 

power” (charging a battery).  Conversely, a DC power command of -1000 on DC3 will deliver 10 
kW of “import power” (discharging a battery).   
 
The ramp rate command is a modifier of the power command defined above. It limits the port 
ramp rate (power, current, or voltage depending on selected Control Method). A power ramp 
rate setting of 300 limits the ramp up or ramp down of the commanded port to a 3 kW/second 
rate.
