/dishchargerecovery time
For Charge Discharge Test: when discharge cycle is complete, this is how long
the software will wait before moving onto the charge cycle. The time parameter is
in seconds.
Example:
/dischargerecovery 20
/graphvoltage
For Charge Discharge Test: if this parameter is used, then the software will graph
voltage during the charge cycle.
Example:
/graphvoltage
/chargeampin
Amps
For Charge Discharge Test: if this parameter is used, then the charge cycle will
be considered complete if the current going into the battery goes over Amps and
then below Amps.
Example (200MA minimum current:
/chargeampmin 0.2
/samplerate
time
Sets the sample rate, the rate at which data is added to the graph. This requires
an extended software license. The time parameter is in milliseconds. Not all time
values are valid, use the software in non-handsfree mode to verify valid values for
your hardware.
Example (250ms sample rate:
/samplerate 250
Hands Free Testing
An external software program, or script, can initiate a hands-free test by executing the software with the /test
command-line options.
For example:
“C:\Program Files\CBA III\WMRCBA2.exe” /test discharge 2 /cutoff 10.5 /open
result.bt2
The software will remain open and run the test until the test has completed. For most tests, it is completed
when battery voltage has dropped below cutoff voltage. For multiple-discharge test, test will complete after
the specified duration has expired -or- the cutoff voltage is reached, which ever happens first.
When the test is complete, the software will close and return an error code to the external software program
or script.
A batch file is present in the executable directory that shows a working of example of calling the .EXE and
handling the returning error level.
CBA HR Auxiliary Inputs
CBA HR Auxiliary Connector
The CBA HR contains a 3.5 mm auxiliary connector jack, positioned just to the left of the large Powerpole test
connectors. There are two remote circuit functions associated with this connector, thus the connector jack
serves two purposes.
It can be used with optional 4-wire measurement harness, which provides enhanced battery test voltage
