The audible alarm buzzer warns users of the existence of a fault or faults in the power system. It continues to sound until the fault no longer exists or until the button is pressed. The Fault LED remains lit until the fault is no longer active, even if the alarm buzzer has stopped.
2.1.6
This port enables remote communication with the controller, allowing remote monitoring and control of operation, status, and parameter setting. The following communication protocols may be used with it (see RS232 Communication Protocol & Data Structure, page 9): 1. RS232 serial port 2. SNMP (TCP/IP Ethernet) 3. SNMP (TCP/IP PPP)
User Guide
2.2.1
General Information
The communication protocol adheres to the following general rules: 1. The host PC and the controller communicate via Half-Duplex RS232 9600.N.1 RX, TX, GND lines with no flow control (neither hardware nor software). 2. The host is always the master and the controller is the slave. 3. The data is binary with no dedicated control characters. 4. Data transmitted by each end has a constant length. 5. Three elements are utilized for data reliability: a. three byte header b. one byte check sum c. three byte termination. 6. On receiving a valid packet, the controller starts responding within 50 msec. 7. On receiving a header start (0 AC) a 500msec, a long reception window is initiated. If a valid packet is received it is processed, otherwise, the controller backs-off by initializing the reception counter.
User Guide
2.2.2
Master
The master is normally a PC or a remote power management system. The master sends its packet, which includes the header, opcode, data, checksum and termination. The ten-byte opcode bit-combination enables the user to perform one or more functions simultaneously. The 97-byte data should include operation-relevant data set by the user as opcode.
2.2.3
Slave
The slave is normally the SC1006NET controller. The slave responds as soon as it receives a valid packet, which includes a header, received_opcode, received_checksum, id, data, checksum and termination. 1. The received_opcode is the last opcode received from the master. 2. The received_checksum is the last checksum received from the master. 3. The four-byte id consists of preprogrammed three bytes and an additional byte, which may be programmed by the master. 4. The 118-byte data always includes all the data or status information that the user may request, i.e., every transaction relayed from the master to the slave results in the retrieval of all possible data that the slave is able to supply. Note: The data retrieved in a transaction does not include the changes made by the hosts command (if any). Another retrieval should take place in order to receive the values affected in the previous command.

2.2.4
TCP/IP Communication
The SC1006Net controller enables the user to communicate via SNMP and to send alarms to remote NMS(s). Gamatronic applications that work with the SC1006Net controller are PSM-DC 1006Net, GeMS and Global Control. Before these applications can monitor and control the power system, the user must set the IP, Gateway and Mask addresses of the controller and the IP addresses of the remote NMS(s) that are to receive Alarm Traps (optional). The codes for the controller addresses are: IP: Mask: B01-B04 B09-B12
Gateway: B05-B08
To set the addresses of the controller via its front panel: 1. Go into Edit mode. To enter Edit mode: Press and hold . You will hear a beep, and the screen displays 888. , press ENT.
Quickly, while 888 is still displayed, and while still holding This brings you into Edit mode.
2. In Edit mode, the screen flashes continuously. Every four or five flashes, it displays the current field code. The first field code you will see is A01. 3. Press the arrow buttons until B01 appears and press ENT. (See Table 7 on page 32 for the meaning of the various codes displayed on the screen.) 4. Change the value of the address using the arrows and press ENT to save the value. 5. Press the arrow buttons until B02 is displayed. 6. Repeat step 3 until the contents of the B01-B12 fields have been set. 7. Press ESC to return to Monitoring Mode.
To configure an MIB Browser to receive Alarm Traps from the controller: 1. Open a MIB Browser. 2. Enter the IP address of the controller into the Remote SNMP Agent field. 3. Open a MIB Compiler. 4. Add Gamatronic PS MIB to the compiler. 5. Compile it in psTrap; alarm traps appear in the MIB tree in psSecurityTrapIp1, psSecurityTrapIp2, psSecurityTrapIp3, or psSecurityTrapIp4. Note: It is possible to configure up to four NMS.

3. Theory of Operation
SC1006 monitors and controls the PS1006 power supply system with: 1. Nominal values of system parameters that can be setup by the user or imported from a parameters bank. 2. Measurements of the system's input AC voltage and output DC voltage and current. 3. Responses to data received from the system. 4. Fault detection and alarms.
3.1.1
Output Voltage
The system output voltage set by the controller is affected by: 1. Activated charge mode (floating/equalizing). 2. Battery temperature compensation (if enabled). 3. Battery test (if activated). 4. Battery charge current limit (if enabled). 5. Deviation of output voltage. In the absence of a controller or in the event of a controller failure, the output voltage reverts to the system's default output voltage. 3.1.1.1 Output / Floating Voltage Setup To change the output / floating voltage setting: 1. Press the arrow buttons until the VDC LED is lit. The floating voltage is displayed. 2. Press the ENT button. The display flashes. 3. Use the arrow buttons to set the output voltage. 4. Press ENT to save the new setting. 5. Press ESC to quit.

User Guide
3.1.2
Battery Test
The user may manually initiate a battery test at any time via a control button or a remote application. In addition, an enabled automatic battery test occurs whenever a period of days (set by the user) has passed. The battery test uses an algorithm involving the actual battery current and battery capacity that is set by the user and which can always be modified by the user. The formula is:
TIME LEFT (sec) = [BATTERY CAPACITY (AH) 180 / BATTERY CURRENT (A)] ELAPSED TIME (sec)
In any event, the test time does not exceed the time limit parameter. The controller can handle up to two battery sets (the number of batteries is set by the user). It uses the LVDs to switch off the battery not being tested. Throughout the test, the supply voltage is lowered to a defined voltage set by the user which allows the battery to discharge. The controller continually checks the batterys voltage, waiting for it to cross the threshold set by the user as the criteria that indicates a bad battery. If threshold is crossed, the test of the battery is aborted and the battery is considered faulty. The results are stored separately in a non-volatile memory.
3.1.3
The battery charge current limit controls, if enabled, the output voltage in the event that the battery current is higher then the preset user value. The control is achieved in real-time, ensuring that the higher the current reaches, the lower the output voltage (and vice versa). To set up the total battery charge current limit of the power system, you must enter Edit mode and change the values defined for field codes C17 and D10. Refer to section 4.1 Setting-Up Parameters in Edit Mode on page 23
3.1.4
The systems temperature is measured by two sensors. These real-time sensors are used for determining the amount of temperature compensation required as well as the criteria for activating the over temperature alarm. The battery current compensation effects, if enabled, the output voltage according to the formula below, where K is the compensation value determined by the user.
VP (TC) = VP (25C) 24 K (TC - 25C)
17
User Guide
3.1.4.1 Battery Charge Temperature Compensation Setup By default, the battery charge temperature compensation is set to 6mV per battery cell. To change the compensation setting: 1. Press the arrow buttons until the TEMP LED is lit. 2. Press the ENT button to display the mV compensation value. 3. Use the arrow buttons to modify the compensation value, if required. 4. Press the ENT button to save the new setting. 5. Press ESC to return to Monitoring mode.
3.1.5
LVD
System controller SC1006 supports up to two LVDs. The number of LVDs (one or two) is set by the user and equals the number of battery sets. The LVDs first and most important task is to disconnect the batteries in the event that a deep discharge is endangering the batterys life. The user determines the criteria for opening each LVD separately. The user also defines the hysteresis (the gap between the opening and closing voltage of an LVD). The LVDs second function - during the battery test - is to disconnect the battery not being tested (in the case of a two battery system only). It is possible to turn off or normalize asynchronously each of the LVDs, regardless of the system status. 3.1.5.1 LVD Voltage Setup To change the voltage on both LVDs: 1. Press the arrow buttons until the ABAT LED is lit. 2. Press the ENT button to display the existing LVD voltage setting. The display flashes. 3. Use the arrow buttons to change the voltage setting as required. 4. Press ENT to save the new setting 5. Press ESC to return to Monitoring mode.
3.1.6
Alarm Thresholds
There is a range of permitted values for each system parameter. If the value of a system parameter is outside the defined range, an alarm is triggered (see Setting up Alarm Thresholds, page 28).
18
User Guide
The two options allow the user the flexibility and confidence of being able to return to the factory defaults, as well as the convenience of retrieving user-defined parameters already stored as good functioning ones.
3.2.1
The controller always uses the non-volatile ACTUAL PARAMETERS BANK as its reference for settings, alarms, etc. (normal operation). This bank can be updated by the user via both the controller's panel and a remote software application. In addition, an entire bank can be copied into it. For this purpose, the user can choose to copy either Factory or User Defaults to the actual bank (see Saving and Restoring Nominal Values, page 27). Factory Defaults are rigidly determined by the factory, while User Defaults can be created and saved by the user from a setup existing in the controller at any time.

Battery Test
The system automatically tests up to 2 batteries periodically. The user can set the length of time between battery tests and the battery tests duration. If the battery tests exceed the time specified, it is automatically aborted. There are 2 possible methods of testing the batteries: 1. When setting up 1 set of batteries, while connected to the rectifier the voltage should decrease to 45V (for 48VDC applications) or to 22.5V (for 24VDC applications). If while testing the voltage drops below 46v (for 48VCD applications) or below 23VDC (for 24VDC applications), the battery is faulty. 2. When setting up 2 sets of batteries, the controller disconnects one set and checks the other as above. At controller setup, the battery capacity should total the battery capacity string. To manually start a battery test: Press the Batt Test button. To manually abort an ongoing battery test: Press the Batt Test button while the batteries are being tested.

A field appears that already contains the logical value for that code (i.e. 220 for AC Voltage) to make calibration easier. 4. Press the UP/DOWN arrow buttons until the field's value is the same as the real value measured by the DMM and press ENT. 5. Press ESC to return to Monitoring Mode. The logical value of the A14-17 field codes remains the same even after recalibration. The recalibrated value cannot be viewed by accessing these codes. The only way to find out if these parameters were recalibrated correctly is to observe the effect of the recalibration on the system's measurements. Once recalibration is complete its effect should be checked immediately to verify that it was done correctly. To observe the effect of recalibration do the following: DC Voltage - Use the arrow buttons to select the VDC LED. AC Voltage - Go to Field Code F01 by pressing the ESC button for 5 seconds. Load Current - Use the arrow buttons to select the Aload LED. Rectifier Current - Use the arrow buttons to select the Arect LED.
At the beginning of the recalibration the batteries were disconnected from the power system. The batteries should now be reconnected.
To set the RTC of the controller via its front penal: 1. Press and hold . You will hear a beep, and the screen displays 888. , press ENT.
Quickly, while 888 is still displayed, and while still holding This brings you into Edit mode.
2. In Edit mode, the screen flashes continuously. Every four or five flashes, it displays the current field code. The first field code you will see is A01.

3. Use the arrow buttons to display the RTC field code to be changed and press ENT. 4. Use the arrow buttons to change the value and press ENT. 5. Repeat step 2 until the contents of all the RTC fields have been changed. 6. Press ESC to return to Monitoring Mode.
When the controller is switched on LEDs light up and the alarm buzzer sounds. This process continues for a few seconds after which the controller is stabilized and the 7Segment Display shows the power system's DC voltage value. It is possible to perform a remote reset from an application to restart the controller. The affects are the same as if the Reset button on the panel was pressed. Note: Avoid resetting the controller if possible. The Reset button is recessed to prevent inadvertently resetting the controller and must be accessed with a thin pin.
