Screen Items:

Bat displays battery voltage, net current flow
(positive or negative), battery temperature, and net
amp-hour accumulation for that day.

Min displays the lowest recorded battery voltage
and SOC for that day, and the time each was
recorded.

Max displays the highest recorded battery voltage
and SOC for that day, and the time each was
recorded.

Days Since Parms Met is the number of days since
the last time the “fully charged” parameters were
met (as defined on page 112).

Screen Items:

Cycle Charge Factor compares the amp-hours removed
from the battery and those returned to the battery while
charging. It displays the comparison as a percentage. This
number can be compared against the programmed charge
factor (see page 112) to judge battery charging efficiency.

Cycle kWH Charge Efficiency compares the
kilowatt-hours removed from the battery and those
returned to the battery during all activity (such as float
charging). It displays the comparison as a percentage. This
number can be used to judge overall battery efficiency.

Total Days at 100% displays the number of days since the
batteries reached 100% SOC. If the batteries are not at
100%, this will read 0.

Total Days at 100% is computed by

the FLEXnet DC. It is a running total of the amount of time
that the SOC's value is equal to 100%. This number is
retained or continues to accumulate until reset by the user.

Lifetime kAH Removed accumulates the total amp-hours
that were ever drained from the batteries.
