7.1 TIME

A 24hr format is used for system time, with a
resolution of 6 minutes (0.1 hours).

Note:

Removing power to the regulator (ie

turning it off) will reset the system time to
0.0hrs (midnight). You will need to re-enter the
current time whenever the regulator is restarted.
Incorrect system time will result in misleading
history data since this is stored at midnight of each
day. Generator quiet-time and time-driven event
control will also be affected.

7.2 VOLT

Set VOLT to the nominal system voltage for your
installation.
This setting determines the regulation and
control voltage set-points for your system.

Note:

Your regulator

will not

be damaged if

the voltage is set incorrectly, however you
would probably damage your battery (under-
or overcharge) if this setting is in error for any
length of time.

7.3 PROG (Adjusting Regulation
Settings)

The PL comes with a number of preconfigured
programs, which are set up for generic batteries.
For custom installations, one program (Program 4)
allows the user to adjust each setting individually.

If you find you are unable to change your settings, it
may be because the “lockout” setting is activated.
This setting is designed to prevent unwanted
tampering— please see the “Setting Lockout”
information in section 6.5.

Low Battery Disconnect

Low Battery Disconnect is enabled for Programs 0-3.
Programs 2&3 turn on the LOAD- terminal at night.

Program Description

PROG 0:

Use with liquid electrolyte lead acid

(ie. flooded) batteries. The LOAD- terminal is
set to turn off when the battery is low. (Also
known as Low Battery Disconnect).

PROG 1:

Use with Sealed batteries (AGM or

Gel) . The LOAD- terminal is set to turn off
when the battery is low. (Also known as Low
Battery Disconnect).

PROG 2:

Use with liquid electrolyte lead acid

batteries (ie. flooded). The LOAD- terminal
is set to turn on at night and can be used
for night lighting, but will turn off when the
battery is low (Low Battery Disconnect).

PROG 3:

Use with Sealed batteries (AGM or

Gel) . The LOAD- terminal is set to turn on at
night and can be used for night lighting, but will
turn off when the battery is low (Low Battery
Disconnect).

PROG 4:

Enables customised adjustment of all

settings.

Installation instructions for programs 0-3 are on
pages 8-9 of the User Guide.
