$SCA: will reply with “AOK;” if the command was processed successfully. However, to assure the changes are STORED and used the regulator must be reset using the $RBT: command after all changes have been made.
Example - Large alternator powered by large main engine:
If not already done, set regulator ’ s name Disable Idle adaptive pullback (alternator has massive cooling capability, and engine has sufficient reserve) Adjust amp shunt to 250A/75mV Define engine idle @ 550 RPMs Must have Alternator Temperature sensor present, else cause regulator to FAULT Leave other values as default (See Appendix D: )

Example - Detailed configuration. Large alternator powered by large main engine, 1500AH industrial FLA battery:
Set name to MainsAlt
Acceptance @ 14.4v until acceptance current is less than 1% of capacity, 8hr max. o 8hr Time limit is set as fall-back in case of battery current sensing failure . 13.2v float - revert back if 2% of capacity is removed 15.3v Equalize, 3Hr duration. No overcharge nor post-float phases. Allow Alternator to operate up to 105c 30mV temp comp
