4 Introduction The OutBack P ow er Systems FLEXnet DC The FLEXNet DC collects, monitors and recor ds time -based battery amp, watt and volt data for displa y on the OutBack MA TE series of products, allowing for more accurate set point adjustments and pr ecise batter y rechar ging.
5 Think of the input shunts as breaks or junctions in the DC (-) conductor . The current is conducted as though it were a continuous conductor , but the shunts allow the user to monitor the current, providing inf ormation for more accurate batt er y recharg ing.

7 The FLEXNet DC package includes: A. FLEXnet DC B. T en-pin wiring plug for shunt, rela y and batter y connections C. Six feet of CA T5 cable for HUB connection D . T en-foot color-coded twisted pair ( TP) cable connects to the batter y E. Thr ee six-f oot, color-coded, twisted pair cables for shunt connections F .
8 • Inser t the FLEXNet DC inside the DC breaker box and through the back side of the breaker bracket; secure with two #6-32 X 3/8 panhead machine screws (included) torqued at 5 t o 8 inch-pounds • Connect all wires to the ten-pin wiring connector .
9 • Black/Whit e twisted pair connects directly to the batter y bank being monitored: Whit e to BA T (-) Black to BA T (+) An appropriate fuse—with a rating of 5 amps or less and greater than 100 .
10 (Installing the FLEXnet DC continued) • Insert the 10-pin connec tor to the wiring block on the back of the FLEXnet DC. • Install the CA T5 cable into the RJ45 jack in the back of the FLEXNet DC. Connect the other end of the cable to the HUB using P ort #2 or higher .
11 FLEXNet DC Measurements The FLEXNet DC can measure and recor d: • V olts for one batt er y bank* • Amps** • KiloWatts • kWhrs removed fr om the batteries • kWhrs returned to the batteries.
12 Logged Data* The previous 128 days of data ar e accessible with the MA TE. The data is logged each night at midnight. Be sure the M A TE’ s clock is set to the correct local time (ref er to your M A TE manual).
13 P rog ramming and Using the MA TE for FLEXNet DC Operations At initial power up , use the MA TE (see pages 17-28) to program: • Batter y Bank 20 Hour Capacity (provided by the manufacturer) in am.
14 FLEXNet DC Modes - Channel A is enabled by default - Each input channel is either enabled or disabled. - A disabled channel will show zero values only . - All enabled channels will run in parallel. - An enabled channel monitors and totals all current owing into or out of the batter y bank through its shunt.
15 The FLEXnet DC ’ s LEDs indicate the SOC by their individual ON/OFF states. Excluding the RED or last LED , when viewing the remaining f our LEDs—GREEN, YELL O W , YELL O W , AND YELL O W— th.

29 T echnical Not es Battery Charge F actor (BCF) Some energy is lost both when rechar ging and discharg ing a batter y . The FLEXnet DC compensates for these losses by discounting the amp-hours charg ing the batter y , meaning it doesn ’t count every hour used for rechar ging as actually recharg ing.
