1 Introduction

The Vetus battery monitor can be used
to measure the charge condition of the
battery and also, while discharging, the
time remaining before the battery will
be completely discharged.
The following functions can be read:
- the charge condition of the battery
- the charge or discharge current
- the voltage
- the time limit before the battery is
completely discharged.
A number of alarms can also be set.
The battery monitor can be connected
to both a 12 Volt and a 24 Volt system,
