Battery capacity test
✔
‘Main menu è Battery settings è Battery capacity test ’
1. Press SET. The Start capacity test dialogue appears (Fig.
left).
2. Press and hold SET for 1 s. The capacity test starts.
3. The display switches to the Battery settings menu.
If the capacity test could be successfully started then charging
is deactivated (OFF) and the code C
is displayed in the footer of
the status screen, see
Ä
Chapter 7.3 ‘Status display’
on page 53.
8.5.4 Battery type
For information on switching between the lead-acid, lead-gel/AGM, Li-Ion and NiCd battery
types, see
Ä
Chapter 5 ‘Initial commissioning of the base system’ on page 33.
8.5.5 Battery capacity
For the battery capacity settings see
Ä
Chapter 5 ‘Initial commissioning of the base system’
