Guide article of the new Toolkit3 app to allow users to configure the Shunt Hardware Settings.
Navigate to the screen via the Menu and choose the Configuration tab. Choose Shunt Hardware from the drop-down menu.
¶ Edit Mode Overview
Editing is only available when in 'Technician' mode.
For guide on how to make changes, go to Configuration Guide and Icons.
- Specify the battery capacity Ah.
- Save.
¶ Action Buttons
¶ Modify SoC% Num
Use this button if wanting to modify or make changes to the SoC%
¶ Field Definitions
¶ Type
The type of shunt used can be selected.
ShuntMon2 500A 650V 50uOhm is the one that comes with starter kits. The shunt simulator allows testing without a shunt.
¶ Nominal Capacity |
Nominal capacity in Ah as specified by the cell manufacturer When in series the capacity does not increase. |
¶ Reverse Orientation |
ON/OFF switch regarding the orientation of the batteries This can be enabled when the current reading needs to be swapped due to the physical orientation of the shunt not allowing the typical wiring path. When enabled this will allow the reading to show as discharging when it would have previously been showing as charging. |
¶ Idle Current Threshold - Charge |
Low Threshold for idle current when charging, only available in advanced mode. |
¶ Idle Current Threshold - Discharge |
Low Threshold for idle current when discharging, only available in advanced mode. |
¶ Re-Calibrate Low SoC |
ON/OFF to allow a reset of the State-of-Charge back to empty (0%) if it goes below this value. Only available in advanced mode. |
¶ Re-Calibrate Hi SoC |
ON/OFF to allow a reset of the State-of-Charge back to full(100%) if it exceeds this value. Only available in advanced mode. |
¶ Re-Calibrate in Bypass |
ON/OFF to allow a reset of SoC% to Full if going into Bypass.
Only available in advanced mode. |
¶ Empty SoC% Cycle Threshold |
The State-of-Charge threshold that when it goes below and returns to full will count towards a discharge cycle. Only available in advanced mode. |
¶ Full SoC% Cycle Threshold |
The State-of-Charge threshold when it goes above the empty threshold will count towards a discharge cycle. Only available in advanced mode. |
