Configuring your Morningstar RB-RELAY snap-in Ready Relay Block ensures it functions precisely as needed for your system. Here's how to set it up:
- Power Up: Begin by connecting the battery to your Morningstar host device. This action powers the entire system, including the relay block.
- Access LiveView: You'll configure the ReadyRelay using the Morningstar LiveView webpage before any wiring connections. To access LiveView:
- Connect your Morningstar host device to your PC.
- Open a web browser and enter either the host device's IP address or its NetBIOS name into the address bar.
- Enter Installer's Code: Once in LiveView, input the installer's code which is 141. Then, enable the Installer Setup option.
- Configure Ready Blocks: Within LiveView, navigate to the Ready Blocks section. Any installed blocks will be listed in the ReadyRelay Configuration Box. The position of each block is indicated by positions 1-3, and relays A or B.
- Define Relay Function: Now, determine how the relay will function according to your specific requirements. You can choose from various options:
- Threshold control
- Faults and Alarms monitoring
- Charge Stage management
- External Source Control (ESC) Start-Stop functionality
- Command/Schedule settings
- Activate ReadyRelays: After the configuration is complete within LiveView's Installer ReadyRelay setup, activate the ReadyRelays using the Command buttons.
- Wiring: The final step involves the correct wiring of the relay contact terminals to your desired devices. Make sure to tighten the terminal connector screws to a torque of 5 in-lb (0.56 N-m).
Following these steps carefully will allow you to successfully configure the Morningstar RB-RELAY snap-in Ready Relay Block, tailoring its operation to your precise needs and ensuring optimal performance.
