Safiery CANbus Alternator Controller

$CPE:n - Change EQUALIZE parameters in CPE user entry n (n = 7 or 8) This command (with its parameters) will cause the EQUALIZATION portion of a Charge Profile Entry to be updated. Parameters must be in the following order and include comma “,” separators where indicated. Extra spaces before and/or after the parameters are allowed.

$CPE:n <VBat Set Point>, < Max Amps >, <Exit Duration>, <Exit Amps>

n: (7  8) ‘ n’ is the Charge Profile Table Entry that will be modified. Use range 7 to 8.

VBat Set Point: <FLOATING POINT NUMBER (0.0  20.0) > Voltage the Regulator will use during EQUALIZE mode. This value is a floating-point number and entered for a normalized 12v system (See note: Defining Charging Voltages and Amps). Setting ‘VBa t ’ = 0 will disable EQUALIZE mode.

MaxAmps: <WHOLE NUMBER (0  50)> Optional additional current limit while in EQUALIZE phase; the regulator will cap delivered AMPS to ‘MaxAmps’ . Setting ‘MaxAmps’ = 0 will disable this amperage capping.

Exit Duration: <WHOLE NUMBER (0  600 (10 hours)) > After starting an EQUALIZE phase, a timer will be started. After ‘ ExitDuration’ minutes have expired EQUALIZE will emanate and the regulator will enter FLOAT mode. Setting ‘ ExitDuration’ = 0 will disable EQUALIZE mode.

Exit Amps: <WHOLE NUMBER (0  50)> During EQUALIZE mode delivered Amps will be monitored and if it falls to (or below) ‘ExitAmps’ equalization will be terminated and the regulator will move to FLOAT mode. Note that as a precaution, Battery Voltage is not checked when sampling Equalization Exit Amps (as it is in Acceptance and Overcharge). It is up to the operator to keep the engine speed up and allow for a full equalization session to occur. Setting ‘ExitAmps’ = 0 will disable Amp based exiting of EQUALIZE mode and only Time monitoring will be used.
