DCM100 User’s Manual ® Figure 2 – NMEA 2000 Connector Face Views 2.4.2 Connecting the DC power and Sensor Connections The DCM100’s DC Power and sensor connections are made by connecting to the 12-pin terminal strip on the top of the unit. First, remove the four screws at the corners of the unit securing the splash guard to the unit. On the bottom of the splash guard, you will find a label detailing the wire connection to pin number assignments, which are repeated in the table be

Disconnect the wire from the positive terminal of the battery or other DC source that is being monitored and place it through the hole in the Current Sensor such that the arrow on the Current Sensor points towards the battery or DC source. Then, reattach the wire to the positive terminal of the battery or other DC source. Step 2: The temperature sensor (TR3K) has a gray cable containing red and black wires. Connect the Temperature Sensor as follows: a. Connect the red wire to

® ® 2.5.4.3 Equalization You may indicate here whether or not the battery supports equalization. This is used only for reporting over the NMEA 2000 network. Available choices are “Supported” and “Not Supported”. 2.5.4.4 Temperature Coefficient The capacity of a battery generally increases with increasing temperature. So that the DCM100 can properly calculate the battery’s state of charge, program this parameter with the increase in battery capacity, in percent, per increase in te

DCM100 User’s Manual available, you can set this parameter to the estimated battery temperature, between -25°C and 125°C. 2.5.4.11 Time Remaining Floor The DCM100 calculates the time, given the current being discharged from the battery, before the battery becomes discharged. By default, the DCM100 considers a battery to be discharged when its state of charge reaches the “Time Remaining Floor” value, which is by default set to 50%. If you desire to use some other state of charge va

DCM100 User’s Manual 4 Background 4.1 Why Monitor Batteries? The lifetime and storage capacity of batteries can be greatly affected by the way in which they are used. Discharging a battery excessively or under-charging or over-charging a battery can ruin it. A battery monitor can help you monitor and adjust your battery usage to extend a battery’s lifetime to the maximum possible. In addition, a battery monitor can help you to determine the amount of energy stored in your batteries

® ® 4.5 Battery Safety Precautions 1. Lead-acid batteries generate explosive gases during operation. Make sure that the area around the batteries is well-ventilated. Never allow flames or sparks near a battery. 2. Wear clothing and eye protection when working with batteries. If battery acid comes into contact with your skin or clothing, wash them immediately with soap and water. If battery acid contacts your eyes, immediately rinse your eyes with cool running water for at least 15 mi

DCM100 User’s Manual restated version of the equation, which allows you to calculate the time to totally discharge a given battery at a given discharge current, follows: , where = the rated battery capacity in Amp-hours, = the number of hours over which the rated battery capacity was calculated (usually 20), = the discharge current in Amperes, = the time to discharge the battery in hours, and = the Peukert constant for the battery (dimensionless). The Peukert consta
