•
Close the remaining battery circuit breakers if more than one string is used.
•
Insert a micro Sageon rectifier in position 1 and apply the AC power. The rectifier unit should
power up and begin charging the battery bank/s.
•
Insert all the remaining rectifiers and apply AC power to them.
•
Check that the bus voltage is increasing toward the float voltage.
•
Close the load circuit breakers and check that the loads power up.
•
Wait for 1 minute and check that the rectifiers are all sharing the load current to /-2A of
the average rectifier current.
•
The system is up and operational. Adjust any operational monitoring or setup details as required
(see the next section on operation or refer to the controller operation manual on the CD for a
detailed explanation of the functions).
4.11 OPERATION
System operation is controlled by the micro Sageon controller. As a result, operation information for the
system is directly related to the operation of the controller as described in this section.
4.12 SUMMARY OF CONTROLLER FRONT PANEL CONTROLS
There are four menus, which can be viewed using the INC or DEC buttons:
a) The default or "HOME" menu, which contains general system information;
b) Rectifier menu - contains all the parameters relating to the switch-mode rectifiers (RECTIFIER);
c) Battery menu - contains all the parameters relating to the batteries;
d) Alarms log - which is a chronological record of the last 100 alarms.
Moving from one menu to another
If no button has been pressed for two minutes, the display will revert back to the HOME screen. This
shows the output voltage and load current.
To move from any menu to any other menu, press the corresponding button. e.g. to move to the battery
menu from any other menu, momentarily press the BATT button.
To move to the HOME menu from any other menu, press the button of the current menu. e.g. if in the
rectifier menu, press rectifier button to return to the HOME menu.
Scrolling through the Menus:
To scroll through any menu from the first screen to the last, press the INC button;
To scroll to the last (bottom) screen first, then upwards through the menu to the first screen, press the
DEC button.
Incrementing and decrementing programmable parameters
To change a programmable parameter press ENTER; the value will flash on and off. To increase the
number, press INC; to decrease the number press DEC. When the desired number is on the screen, press
ENTER again.
To change parameters when the security function is activated
If an attempt is made to alter any parameter when the security function is activated, the display will show
the message "Enter Password".
To change a parameter, enter a valid password. Then proceed to change the parameter in the normal way.
When scrolling through the alarms log
To observe the date and time of a given alarm, do not press any button for at least two seconds. The date
and time will display for two seconds and then the alarm name will be displayed for two seconds. The
display will alternate between the two screens in this manner until a button is pressed.
