Using the ME-RC50 Remote with the BMK
03 BM: Meters – This menu shows the battery bank’s DC voltage, DC current,
and AH information that has been provided by the battery meter. The values
for these meter displays are updated each second.
DC Volts – This meter displays the real-time battery voltage from
07.00 to 70.00 volts (± 0.02 volts).
DC Amps – This meter displays the real-time charge current (amps into
the battery) or discharge current (amps out of the battery). Charging is
shown as a positive (+) number and discharging is shown as a negative (-)
number. The range is from ±0.1 to 999 amps, with a 1.0% accuracy.
AH I/O (Amp-Hours In/Out) – This meter displays the amp-hours
returned to or removed from the battery. When this value is positive, it
represents amp-hours returned to the battery during any subsequent
charging. A negative value represents amp-hours removed from a full
battery. The range is ±32,768 AH.
When using the charge effi ciency’s Auto setting, the AH I/O value is
recalculated after the battery has been fully charged (reaching 100%
SOC) and ≥0.5% of the battery capacity has been discharged. If the
Sense Module is disconnected from power, the displayed AH I/O value
resets to zero.
Info: The AH I/O display correlates with the battery amp-hours setting
to help determine the 02 BM: SOC display.
Info: AH I/O example; if you run a 10 amp load for three hours, the
display will show -30 AH. When you begin charging, the display will
count from -30 AH back toward 0 AH.
rAH Out (Resettable Amp-Hours Removed) – This meter displays
the total amp-hours removed from the battery since it was last reset.
This display can be used as a battery load indicator to help identify
and monitor the battery load consumption. The range is 0 to 65,535.0
amp-hours (0.1 amp-hour resolution).
To reset the AmpHrs value to zero, press and hold the rotary SELECT
knob for >5 seconds when this display is shown. After this display
has been reset, it will begin calculating and displaying new rAH Out
values. This display automatically resets to zero if the Sense Module is
disconnected from power.
tAH Out (Total Amp-Hours Removed) – This meter displays the total
amp-hours removed from the battery since the Sense Module was fi rst
connected. This display can be used as a battery service life indicator.
The value is displayed in 0.1k [or 100 amp-hours (“k” equals 1000)]
resolution up to a maximum of 6,553.5k amp-hours (6,553,500 amp-
hours). The displayed number resets to 0.0k when the Sense Module is
disconnected from power.
