Adjustments
The Dimensions Battery Backup System is designed to operate right out of the box without making any
adjustments. If you would like to alter settings, please see the common items below or consult the
“Operation” manual for more details.
6.1
Sense Type
The BBS has three user selectable modes of sensing the AC input
power. These modes are; “
Normal”, “Generator”,
and
“
Buck/Boost”
. The factory default setting is “Buck/Boost”.
“Normal” and “Generator” modes have user selectable transfer
points. These two modes have factory preset settings of 100/130 for “Normal” and 95/134 for
“Generator”. The “Buck/Boost” setting is not user adjustable and is factory preset for the widest range
possible of 80/160. You may select the sense type by navigating to the “Configuration” menu on the
LCD.
6.2
Transfer Points
The transfer points for the “Normal” and “Generator” modes are
settable by the user. You may adjust the transfer points by navigating
to the “Configuration” menu on the LCD. Press “Enter” when you
reach the desired transfer point to change (Normal or Generator). You can then change the lower and
upper transfer points. The range of adjustment is 89-135Vac.
6.3
Timer Relay
The timer setting affects any relay that is configured for “Timer”.
The timer will start when the BBS enters Backup mode. Once the
BBS has been in Backup for the value of the timer, any relay that is
configured for “Timer” will be energized. You may adjust the timer by navigating to the “Configuration”
menu on the LCD. The range of adjustment is from 0-480 minutes. The factory default setting is for 120
minutes.
6.4
Low Battery Relay
The “Low Battery Relay” setting affects any relay that is configured
for “Low Battery”. When the BBS is in Backup mode and the
capacity of the battery system reaches the set point, any relay that is
configured for “Low Battery” will be energized. A dry contact relay
programmed for “Low Battery” is typically used to put a cabinet into flash when the battery capacity is
low. The range of adjustment is from 0 to 100%. This is adjustable in 5% increments. The default
setting is at 40%.
