July 2012 / WPC / EN 5
You can now adapt your installation to the source which it is
connected to.
Max. current of the AC source (Input limit) {1107}.
When an asterisk (*) is present, it informs you that the selected value corresponds to the
one set in factory by default (factory setting).
In case of using the WPC on a public grid, it is actually the value of the circuit breaker on the
source side (fuse or breaker).
In a building, this value lies generally between 8 and 16A.
In the case of a shorepower or of a camping terminal, it lies between 2 and 6A.
In case of using the WPC on a genset, you can divide the genset power by the operating
voltage (for instance for a genset of 3500VA, or 3500W, and 230V you get 3500/230=15.2).
Press the key SET to modify the value of this parameter (it appears in reverse video). By means of the keys
“arrow upwards” and “arrow downwards” change the value to adapt it to your source and validate your
setting with the key SET (OK).
2.3 ADAPTATION TO THE BATTERY
Charge current {1138}
In order that your WPC manages the best possible the energy stored in your batteries and that it charges
them optimally, it is necessary to indicate the current which they can be charged with. You will find this value
in the technical data provided by your batteries manufacturer.
In the case of lead-acid batteries, one generally uses one tenth or one fifth of the battery
capacity value.
For instance for a 500Ah battery: 500/10=50A to 500/5=100A.
The basic display is:
Press 2 times on the key “arrow downwards” to display the
following screen:
Once beyond this screen you can come back to it by means of the
key ”arrow upwards”.
Press the key SET to access to the settings.
Then again on the key SET to access to the basic parameters.
With the key “arrow downwards”, access the menu “Battery and
charger cycle”.
You are now going to set the charge current for the batteries:
Press the key SET to modify the value of this parameter (it appears
in reverse video). With the keys “arrow upwards” and “arrow
downwards” change the value to adapt your battery and validate
your setting with the key SET (OK).
