4.3.4.11Battery Discharge Test Completion

The test is considered complete once the battery begins to charge. This could be due to the test ending from timeout, the system reaching the end (termination) voltage or an abort condition.

Once the battery begins to charge, the recharge cycle begins. Live battery recharge information is available from the battery log web page.

4.3.4.12Remote BT Mode

This feature will force a transition to BT mode when a user-defined condition (custom alarm) is true.

When this condition is true, BT mode is entered regardless of the regular safety checks that are performed during manual or automatic changes to BT mode. BT mode stays active as long as the condition remains true.

A check box is used to enable/disable this feature. The default is disabled. If the condition is true and the check box is disabled, then the system will be put into FL mode.

If the condition becomes false, disabled, invalid, or the (assigned custom alarm) equation is empty, the system will be put into FL mode.

NOTE: This feature is exclusive for the Cordex series of rectifiers. If Remote BT is active and a rectifier other than the Cordex series is added to the system then Remote BT will be aborted.

4.4.1Inventory Update

This button will enable the user to re-acquire all the attached modules to the CXC; to verify the existence of all connected modules. Tap to evoke this command (and return to the home page).

A pop-up window (not shown here) will appear over the home page to show a progress bar of the number of modules acquired during the update that has just been evoked. Tap the “X” button to clear the pop-up from the active area.

Inventory update must be done whenever a module is removed from the system. The system is polled with respect to the following scenarios:

•Module has failed and is no longer able to communicate, or

•User has removed a module from the system.

4.4.2Rectifier Report (Converter Report similar)

This button (or menu item in 6.3.1) will enable the user to view, in a list (report), all of the acquired modules in the system. Tap to evoke this command.

A new active area will be displayed, see Figure 9 below. The first column lists the serial numbers of the modules. The report then displays the current output (A) of each module (or toggle for % of maximum output) and the number of active alarms (if that module is issuing an alarm). The rightmost column displays the number of settings out of tolerance (OOT per web interface).
