8.7.7 Battery temperature sensor
NOTICE!
– For the NiCd battery type, the temperature sensor is used for temperature compensation
of the upper charge voltage U1 and the lower charge voltage U2.
For the battery temperature sensor settings see
Ä
Chapter 8.5.11 ‘Battery temperature
sensor’ on page 71.
8.7.8 Cable compensation
For the cable compensation settings, see
Ä
Chapter 5 ‘Initial commissioning of the base
system’ on page 33.
8.7.9 PV string connection
For the PV string connection settings, see
Ä
Chapter 8.5.13 ‘PV string connection’
on page 71.
8.7.10 Expert menu
NOTICE!
– The expert menu for NiCd batteries allows the temperature compensation to be switched
on/off.
‘Expert menu settings è Temperature compensation
’ see
Ä
Chapter 8.5.14 ‘Expert menu’
on page 72.
8.8 StecaLink bus
NOTICE!
– The StecaLink bus is an RS-485 communication interface that uses a special Steca
transmission protocol.
–
Various different StecaLink-compatible devices can be networked together via the
StecaLink bus.
– Data exchange and/or remote function execution are possible via the StecaLink bus,
depending on the respective StecaLink member device.
– For information on connecting StecaLink member devices to the MPPT 6000-M/-S, see
Ä
Chapter 6.5 ‘StecaLink slave connection’ on page 45.
– Please visit
www.steca.com for continuously updated documentation on the compatible
StecaLink devices and the software versions required.
