The Binary Input Action assignment links the binary input to a charger control. Examples of a charger control include rectifier remote shutdown, or float/equalize mode control. ATevo will execute assigned charger control when the binary input is in the active state.
To assign a control to a binary input:
MENU > AUX INPUTS > ‘Binary Input Configuration’ > select input from options (refer to Section 12.5.1) > ‘Action:’ > select from 2 actions
Disable Equalize
Disables the EQUALIZE output voltage mode which attempts to equalize the voltage among battery cells. This action can be triggered by either a binary or analog input. An example use-case for this feature would be when an aux input connected to a hydrogen sensor fires a 1% Hydrogen Alarm, this input can disable the EQUALIZE charging. This is presented as a selection under the AUX INPUTS menu as an “Action” for either a binary input or an analog input, as seen in the figure below.
