6.2.3 Controlling the external fan by temperature triggered dry contact

The Temperature trigger has a user configurable range of +20°C to +55°C (68 to 131 °F). When the battery

temperature (monitored by the Battery Temperature Probe) reaches the threshold, the assigned relay closes and

turns on the external fan.

Procedure

From the Logo screen, navigate to Control Menu > RELAY TEMP. Press the SELECT button and the current

temperature display will start flashing. Use the Scroll button to change the temperature in 5°C increments. Press

SELECT

to accept the changes or CANCEL to abort.

NOTE:

Temperature compensation defaults to 0 mv/ °C/ cell in this mode, but can be changed

to non-zero values.
If you set the max charging voltage to a value lower than currently set float voltage, float

voltage will be automatically adjusted to be equal to the new max charging voltage.
