How Run Battery Calibration??

[Anonymous user]

Is there a battery run time calibration procedure for my BE450G?  If so, how do I do this on my BE450G?  It seems to be showing remaining run times lower than it really is so I'd like to correct this.

Also, is the procedure the same for BN1100M2 and BX1000M? 

Thanks.

Hi,

With a Back-UPS you need to run the calibration manually. Attach a 30 to 40 percent load and then switch the UPS to battery and let it drain down.

Thanks, that's not difficult.  Is it also necessary to plug it back in (after draining the battery) and let the battery fully charge with no load connected to the UPS or can I connect my loads while it is charging? Is the recharging part of the calibration? 

Thanks.

Hi,

You can recharge with no load but it is not necessary. The calibration takes place during the discharge.
