7.3. Software for PC Monitoring – ELICOM
ELICOM
is a hardware/software combination installed on a PC to monitor multiple
ELIs with DB9 connection in series. The connector on the ELI’s side is RS-485 (for
long distance transmission); therefore an RS-485 RS-232 adapter (hardware) is
required to modify the signal. The software and hardware together form a package
called ELICOM
. See the ELICOM
TM
specification for further information.
7.4. Auto Dialing Module – ELICALL
In case abnormal situations occur, ELICALL
TM
will automatically dial specified phone
numbers to inform management to take prompt action. The module, with built-in
23A12V battery, consumes power only when in the process of dialing so as to be
operated under AC source failure. Furthermore, with functions of multiple phone
number setting and dialing, ELICALL
TM
has no need of dedicated lines, and can offer
user a prompt and convenient way for monitoring the ELI. See the ELICALL
TM
specification for further information.
7.5. Battery Monitoring Module - DCMAN
DCMAN
is an intelligent module for watching each individual battery in the
battery bank in a simple and direct way. DCMAN
can distinguish for repair the
initially aged battery under safe conditions, thus prolonging the battery life
expectancy. One module can monitor up to 64 pieces of 12V battery. DCMAN
will sound an alarm in case of an abnormal situation, such as battery failure,
cable abnormal disconnection, or if the remaining battery charge is less than the
parameter set in the module. See the DCMAN
specification for additional
information.
7.6. Input Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS)
TVSS is a DIN rail mounted device, connected to the Inverter input. Its plug-
in phase modules are easily replaceable. The device contains energy
absorbing components and has a two-stage protection. When a protection component is
damaged by absorbed transient, the module will display a flag indicating a need for
replacement.
