Battery Temperature Sensor

Fig. 2-8 RTS Placement

Tools Needed:

Adhesive Tape

Procedure:

NOTE: For enclosures with multiple battery strings, the RTS must be located

with the warmest (normally the topmost) battery string. This ensures proper
operation of the battery charger’s temperature compensation circuit. Failure to
locate the RTS with the warmest battery string could result in overcharging and
premature battery failure.

1.

Attach the RTS Probe to the inner side of battery #3 (Fig. 2-6), or
battery #4 (Fig. 2-7) on the upper tray, with adhesive tape.

2.

The other side of the RTS Probe is attached to the front panel of the
XM2 power supply, in the jack labeled TEMP PROBE.
