Default Display

The default display shows basic plant status. The controller returns to
this display three minutes after the last time a key is pressed. The default
screen display is similar to the following: The first line shows the
number of alarms (0) and warnings (0) present in the system, the date
and time. The next two lines show the plant voltage and the plant load.
The last line shows the plant mode, which can be FLOAT, BOOST, STC
(Slope Thermal Compensation), BTP (Battery Thermal Protection, a
boost mode that offers protection against thermal runaway), or BATT
TEST mode.

The information on the screen is updated automatically approximately
every two seconds.
