batteries. If your battery capacity is different you must change the declared
battery capacity. Follow these instructions to declare a new capacity:

1)

Press and hold the SET button for three seconds to enter SETUP (and

Advanced Functions) menu. SEL

SEL appears in the display. Press SEL and notice

that the green

LED is on.

2)

Press SEL again and note that the

light comes on. Press again and now

the

LED is on and 200 appears in the display. This is the default battery

capacity.

3)

Now press and hold the SET button to scroll through battery size options.

The display will show 1 amp-hour increments from 20–40 amp hours of capac-
ity, 5 amp-hour steps from 40–100 amp hours capacity and 20 amp-hour steps
over 100 amp hours of capacity. If you continue to hold SET, after four incre-
ments the display scrolls faster. When the value you want appears, release the
SET button. If you overshoot your capacity you will have to scroll all the way
to 1980 amp hours, after which the display will roll over and begin scrolling up
starting from 10 amp hours. NOTE: Versions of the Link 10 prior to serial
number 05000 increment only in 20 amp-hour steps from 20–1980 amp hours.

After 10 seconds the meter exits the Setup mode and the selected value is

stored as the new battery capacity and the display returns to (Volts).

TIP:

All SETUP and ADVANCED FUNCTIONS begin with the SET button.

SETUP is normally done at installation. The SET button may be LOCKed to
prevent unauthorized personnel from tampering with the SET functions. See
"LOCK" on page 28.
