7.5.2 Changing
the
current hardware protection level
The hardware protection level has been set by design to 4 amps but it is possible to change
this value soldering one (or three) resistor(s) of specific value as described in
Figure 13.
Changing the divider factor to increase the current protection level
If the system is configured for single-shunt, only R114 must be soldered. If the system is
configured for three-shunt, R114, R101, R123 must be soldered.
The value of the resistor(s) express in k
Ω
can be calculated from the following formula:
Equation 1
For I
MAX
= 10 A one (or three) resistor of 1 k
Ω
must be soldered.
