determined by multiplying the BD duration by this factor. The
Boost Enable parameter must be enabled for this feature to be
available.

Converter

Settings

The following configuration parameters are settings which
affect the operation of any converters that may be connected to
the system and communication on the serial bus.

Converter Voltage Set-Point: This is the output voltage that all
converters will be set to by Vector.

Converter Low Voltage Disconnect Enable: This feature
allows the converter LVD to be operational. Select “Enabled” in
the configuration menu to enact the function.

Converter Low Voltage Disconnect Threshold: This is the
value at which the converters are placed into standby.

Converter Low Voltage Reconnect Threshold: This is the
value at which the converters are retired from standby and their
outputs returned to the set-point.

Converter Front Panel Voltage Calibration: The voltage
displayed on the front panel is the uncalibrated converter output
voltage as seen by the controller. If necessary, this voltage can
be calibrated to match a meter. Adjust the displayed voltage until
it matches the voltage displayed on a calibrated voltmeter that is
measuring the voltage across the converter’s output.

Voltage

Calibration

Controller’s displayed system voltage may be adjusted or
calibrated to a known, calibrated meter.

Caution:

This calibration affects all controller functions using plant
voltage and/or current values. These functions include the
float and boost set points. Generally, this feature is not
necessary.

Front Panel Voltage Calibration: The displayed value of
voltage can be adjusted by going through the configuration
menu. Under “Calibrate to meter,” the “System Voltage” softkey
can be used to adjust the system of the system voltage. Adjust the
