Descriptions of the core GX module (BACS

Webmanager)

The BACS WEBMANAGER is the core of BACS. The

module both provides the link to parent systems (PC,

server, web) and also controls all battery modules lo-

cated in the system. The collected data are managed

and saved, and statuses are correspondingly displayed

or signalled. The text output on the display is limited to

a few messages (several alarms or statuses or current

actions). Important data are transferred to the parent

WEBMANAGER system and statistically processed ac-

cordingly.

The BACS WEBMANAGER can manage up to 150

modules. The BACS WEBMANAGER is supplied as an

external unit in its own housing. The “bare” BACS WEB-

MANAGERS (without casing) can be installed inside the

unit if customers require this version. The BACS WEB-

MANAGER can thus be directly integrated into a UPS or

battery pack, for instance.

In summary, the BACS Webmanager provides the

following functions:

Management of all BACS modules/ communication ‧

with up to 150 modules (module bus)

Simple display of the operating statuses/ alarms via ‧

the LCD display (16x2 key for scrolling in the display,

LED for optical control of the function and as a warning

“Real-time clock” for linking/ measuring time and data ‧

Bulk storage (CF card) for archiving the data over a ‧

long period (min. 2-10 years, depending on the size

of the CF card)

Hardware and software “watchdog” for monitoring the ‧

Webmanager’s own operating safety. Signal output via

alarm contact

Ports provided: 2x RS232, 1x Ethernet ‧

5V DC input for general module power supply ‧

I²C bus between the web target, the peripheral ‧
