ment- Measure is carried out as difference
between charging and discharging currents: a
positive value indicates a charging current, a
negative value indicates a discharging current.
ment- Measure range is: -40A ÷ +40A.
- It measures the current of the leisure battery,
users’ consumption and recharge through
battery charger, engine alternator and solar
panels.
The ammet er is inside the DS520 AN module.-
AMMETER
To measure the charging of a sole source (battery
charger, alternator or solar panels), turn off all
items and other charging sources.
An electronic device switches off the awning light
when engine is turned on.
To measure the consumption of a sole user,
disconnect all charging sources and turn off all
unused items.

ALARM CLOCK
To set and activate/deactivate the alarm clock see
“SETTING”.
To reset alarm press any test button; there is no
delayed alarm!
To set clock see “SETTING”.
TEMPERATURE
- Both int. and ext. temperatures have a sensor, which
is placed inside or outside of the vehicle.
TWILIGHT FUNCTION
NOTE: before replacing the fuse find out the problem
that determined the intervention of the protection
(blown fuse) it may be necessary to have a
qualified technician assist
and fix it,
.
The lighting of the LED signals that the fuse is broken
and it is necessary to replace it with another fuse with
the same value. The alarm is activated only when the
control panel is on and the user related to the fuse is
switched on.
- The precision of the temperature value is ±1°C.
Under each fuse is positioned a red LED.
In a “night” situation, a sensor positioned near the
display causes the intensity of the LED backlight to
automatically be reduced to the level preset by the
user (to set see SETTING).
