The battery voltage can be measured regularly, and a report can be sent to WebOffice periodically.

A load is applied to the battery during the measurement. A warning event can be generated if the voltage drops below the warning level. The terminal will be set in error state if the voltage drops below the error level. A restore event will be generated when the voltage reaches the recovery level. A typical measured value is 12.5 V.

Note:
The automatically measured voltage can differ from the battery voltage measured manually with a voltage meter without any load applied.

Load resistors resulting in 0.75-Ampere current flow are connected to ensure similar measurement conditions at each time of measurement.

The load results in approximately 1.5-Ampere total current consumption.

When the battery is being charged, the measured charging voltage will be approximately 13.7 V.

BacklightLowerVoltageLevel

Range:0-201
Default:140
Description:Sets at what battery voltage the backlight voltage shall be lowered by ~2 V

checkLevel

Range:true / false
Default:true
Description:true = The levels listed below will be checked.

errorLevel

Range:0 – 201
Default:115
Description:Error level = Value × 0.1 V.

An error event is sent to WebOffice if the voltage gets below this level.

recoveryLevel

Range:0 – 201
Default:121
Description:Recovery level = Value × 0.1 V.

A recovery event is sent to WebOffice when the voltage reaches this level again after a warning or error event has been generated.

None
Default:DailyLowest
Description:See Measurements

samplingPeriod

Range:0 or 1 – 65535
Default:660
Description:Sampling period in minutes.

0 = Battery measurement switched OFF.

warningLevel

Range:-1 or 0 – 201
Default:119
Description:Warning level = Value × 0.1 V.

Example: 120 = 12.0 V. A warning event is sent to WebOffice if the voltage gets below this value

–1 = No warning event will be sent.

Important:
The minimum voltage required for proper ticket printing and opening of the electric locks is 11.1 V at room temperature (20 ˚C).

Example:

The voltage will be measured every 60 minutes and the lowest voltage measured during the day will be reported on a daily basis. A warning event will be generated when the voltage drops below 11.9 V. The terminal will be set in error state if the voltage drops below 11.5 V. A restore event will be generated when the voltage reaches 12.1 V.
