The device reports measured voltage and current, calculated health and charge state, and user programmed static data (e.g. nominal capacity and chemistry) to NMEA 2000 and can turn on the genset or warn when the battery state is critical.<\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nThe Battery Monitor can be used with any single DC source (i.e. alternator, wind generator, etc.) or load (windlass, refrigerator, etc.), but it is primarily designed for monitoring a marine battery. To operate as intended, it requires an appropriate external shunt (not supplied with the Device); shunts in the range from 5A to 1200A are widely available (please refer to\u00a0<\/span>Section V “Choosing a Shunt” of the User Manual). It can be configured to use data from a\u00a0<\/span>NMEA 2000 thermometer<\/a>\u00a0connected to the battery to detect the charge state and health more accurately and report temperature along with voltage and current data.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

The Device incorporates a MicroSD card slot which allows using a standard FAT-formatted card to configure it and update its firmware. At minimum, you should specify drop voltage and maximum current for the connected shunt. In addition, you can specify battery parameters such as nominal capacity and voltage, chemistry, etc. The Device can be also configured over NMEA 2000 using installation description strings; a PC gateway and software (like\u00a0<\/span>CAN Log Viewer\u00a0or ActiSense NMEA Reader) may be required for this method.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

The Battery Monitor can be configured to manage channels of an NMEA 2000 digital switching system, and\/or trigger a digital alarm unit compatible with standard NMEA 2000 PGNs 127501\/127502. For example, you can configure the Battery Monitor to automatically raise a sound or voice alert about low battery charge with the\u00a0<\/span>Alarm Button<\/a>, or to turn some equipment on or off, or to start a genset to recharge the battery with the\u00a0<\/span>Circuit Control<\/a>.<\/p>\n
