[. . . ] Continue pressing the SEL button until the function you wish to set up appears. Repeat this procedure until you have set up all of the desired advanced functions. Whatever functions you have set up will become active when the display reverts to its normal mode. DEFAULT: OFF RANGE: OFF or ON F02 ENHANCED SLEEP MODES DEFAULT: ON RANGE: ON, OFF, AU (AUTOMATIC) When the Sleep Mode is ON, the Link 10's numeric display turns off after 10 minutes in order to reduce power consumption. Pressing either SET or SEL buttons returns the numeric display to operation. When the Sleep Mode is OFF, the numeric display stays on at all times. In the special automatic sleep mode (displayed as Au), the numerics are on whenever charging or discharging exceeds 1 amp. When the rate of charge or discharge remains less than 1 amp for 10 minutes, the numeric display is turned off to conserve power. When asleep, pressing either SET or SEL reactivates the numeric display. The numeric display automatically wakes up when the rate of charge or discharge exceeds 1 amp. DEFAULT: ON RANGE: OFF or ON 30 Advanced Functions F03 DISPLAY OR SET BATTERY TEMPERATURE If there is no external temp sensor and F16 is OFF (factory default), this function sets ambient battery temperature used to caluculate rate corrected battery capacity which drives the LED bar graph and the Time remaining display. DEFAULT: 20 °C RANGE: 0­40 °C STEP: 1 °C If F16 is ON and an optional external temperature sensor is connected between Pin 6 and Pin 8 (ground), F03 will display temperature (0­99 °C). Temperature will continue to be displayed until one of the two front panel buttons is pressed. Active Temperature display is annunciated by the absence of front panel status indicators. If 0 is displayed at normal (~ 20 °C) temperatures, an open temperature probe should be assumed. If >99 is displayed at normal temperatures, a shorted probe should be suspected. F04 TURN ON KWHRS DISPLAY Kilowatt hours are displayed in the Ah mode. (Note: The kWh display does not take into account Charging Efficiency. As a condition for a recalculation of the CEF and an automatic reset of amp hours to zero, 100% of the energy removed from the battery must be returned. The number in the kWh display must be zero or positive to allow a recalculation of the CEF and an automatic reset to zero. You may use this function to verify that this condition has been met. ) DEFAULT: OFF RANGE: OFF or ON F05 USE ALTERNATIVE ENERGY (AE) DEFAULTS Changes time to meet Charged Parameters to one minute from the normal five minutes. (Also consider changing Charged Current to 4%. ) DEFAULT: OFF RANGE: OFF or ON 31 Advanced Functions F06 MANUALLY SET CEF (Not Recommended) Allows manual setup of CEF. [. . . ] However, if you plug the DB-9 RS-232 output into a computer with a metal chassis then motive battery negative will be connected to the chassis of the computer. THIS EXPOSED BATTERY NEGATIVE MAY BE HAZARDOUS, AND POSSIBLY FATAL IF YOU HAVE A HIGH SIDE MOTIVE PACK FAULT. We strongly recommend that when using a computer to log data, you minimize the hazard by installing an RS-232 Opto-Isolation Module.

Be certain you purchase straightthrough adapters, not the null modem type! 55 Software History Software Enhancement Rev.
