1. General
The Skylla-i panel is a remote panel designed to work with all Skylla-i chargers. The Skylla-i
charger uses the VE.CAN bus.
Connecting the Skylla-i panel to your Skylla-i charger is a simple procedure. Connect the two
devices with a regular UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable with two RJ45 connectors. Make
sure that the two RJ45 bus terminators are in place at both ends. The Skylla-i panel comes
complete with both RJ45 bus terminators. Both the Skylla-i charger and the panel have two
RJ45 sockets which are internally connected, you can connect the cable to either socket.
Operation
When the bus is powered-up the Skylla-i panel briefly lights up all items, next the software
version number is displayed after which it will show the status of the connected Skylla-i
charger.
When the Skylla-i charger is powered off (standby) the panel will also shutdown (all lights off)
to reduce power consumption.
When the Skylla-i charger is operating, the status LEDs show the actual state of charge. The
table below shows the possible LED indications during normal charge operation.

Alarm*
 means permanent on
* When the 'alarm' LED is on, the display shows an error code. See appendix C for an overview of
the error codes.
During normal charger operation it is possible to cycle through the following parameters, by
turning the rotary knob:
•
charge current
•
battery voltage
•
input current
•
input current limit
The active parameter is shown by a blue LED in the status area. The display shows parameters in
SI units (Ampere or Volts) with one decimal digit. The decimal digit disappears when the charger
operates at or above 100A.
The display will show the set value (blinking) when adjusting voltage or current with the
potentiometers in the Skylla-i.
