Function overview

The BMV factory settings are suitable for an average lead acid battery
system of 200 Ah. The BMV can automatically detect the nominal
voltage of the battery system (see chapter 1.4.3), so in most cases the
only setting which will need to be changed is the battery capacity (Cb).
When using other battery types ensure that all the relevant
specifications are known before changing the BMV parameters.
2.5.1 Setup parameter overview
Cb: Battery capacity Ah. The battery capacity for a 20 h discharge
rate at 20°C.
Vc: Charged voltage. The battery voltage must be above this voltage
level to consider the battery as fully charged. Make sure the
voltage-charged-parameter is always slightly below the voltage at
which the charger finishes charging the battery (usually 0.1 V or 0.2
V below the 'float' stage voltage of the charger).
