The current charging parameters of the set characteristic curve
can be read in the 4 following fields. If the individual charging
characteristic is selected, these settings can be edited:
- Maximum charging voltage (boost)
- Max. Boost duration
- maintenance charge voltage (float)
- Current threshold in% of the maximum power to change to
the trickle charge
If no philippi ACE charger is connected or the charger is not supplied with mains voltage, settings
can’t be changed.
4.5 Alarms
A battery alarm is always displayed in the battery icon. In addition, the alarm can be issued /
configured as follows:7
- optical display lighting flashes
- acoustically internal buzzer
- Relay contact potential-free relay (max 1A)
The visual and audible alarm can always be acknowledged in advance by touching the screen, or
can automatically switch off after a definable time.
Alarm options:
Battery capacity alarms
A message appears on the monitor to charge the battery (battery appears red) when the battery
falls below the set capacity threshold.
The alarm capacity alarm is preset to 50%. For an average application, this value is usually okay;
However, the alarm can be set according to the requirements of the application.
If the state of charge continues to fall, 2 different thresholds are active: battery reserve (20%) and
battery over-discharge (0%). Depending on the configuration, an alarm is triggered here.
Battery voltage alarms
If a voltage> 1V is present at the shunt at the terminal (+2) for the 2nd battery voltage, this is
reported as another battery. If the battery voltage drops or exceeds the set threshold value for 30
s, an alarm can be generated.
The following settings are possible in the alarm menu:
- Optical alarm
lighting flickers (on / off)
