TheBatteryGuard®1000providesasolutionforprotectingyourbatteriesfromdischargingtoalevelthatmight
damageyourbatteriesortoalevelthatpreventsthevehiclefrombeingstarted.TheBatteryGuard®1000
constantlymonitorsthevoltagelevelofthebatterytodeterminethelevelofcharge.Whenthevoltagedrops
belowthelowvoltagethresholdforaspecifieddurationoftime,theBatteryGuard®1000willautomatically
disconnectthebatteryfromthesystemload,protectingthebatteryfromexcessivedischarge.

IftheBatteryGuard1000®sensesachargingpotentialforaspecifieddurationoftime,thenitwillautomatically
reconnectthesystemload.Thisconditionusuallyoccurswhenachargingdeviceisconnectedtothebatteryor
theengineisrunning.

ConnectingandDisconnectingtheSystemLoads

TheBatteryGuard®1000acceptsamomentaryswitchinputsignal.Thisswitchallowsusercontroltomanual
disconnectorreconnectthesystemloadsattheuser’sdiscretion.Simplypushandreleasethepushbuttonand
theBatteryGuard®1000willswitchstates.Keepinmind,thedevicehasabuilt‐instatechangedelayof5
secondstopreventconstantcyclingofthedisconnect.

Note:Iftheuserchoosestodisconnectthesystemmanually,theBatteryGuard®1000willnotautomaticallyreconnectifit
sensescharging.

Alarmindication

Analarmoutputisusedtoprovidetheuserwithvaluableinformationaboutthestateofthedisconnect.Thisisa
highsideoutputalarmthatislimitedto300mA.WhenusedwithIntellitec’sBatteryGuardSwitch(11‐01085‐
001),thisoutputistiedtoanLEDindicator.

SolidOn–Indicatesthatthesystemloadsareconnected,andthebatteryvoltageisabovethelowvoltage
threshold.

Flashingat½Hz–Indicatesthatthesystemloadsareconnected,andthebatteryvoltageisbelowthelow
voltagethreshold.

SolidOff–Indicatesthatthesystemloadsaredisconnected.

Diagnostics

IftheBatteryGuard®1000isfailstooperateasintended,locatethedevice.TheBatteryGuard®1000providesa
diagnosticLEDonthemodulethatindicatesseveralfailuremodes.


(DiagnosticLEDlocatedinthelowerrightcorner)

1Blink–Failedtodisconnect
2Blinks–Failedtoreconnect
3Blinks–Belowminimumdisconnectvoltage.

ThisinformationcanbeveryusefulwhentryingtotroubleshoottheBatteryGuard®1000.Intheeventthat
thereisanissueandtheoperatorneedstobypassthedisconnect.RemovetheSystemloadwirefromthe
BatteryGuard1000terminalandmoveittothesamesideasthepositivebatteryfeed.

WARNING:Beforeperformingthistask,disconnectallsourcesofpower.Unplugthecoachandturnoffthe
generator.Disconnectthebattery(s)negative(‐)terminal.
OperatingParameters

ThetablebelowdefinestheoperatingparametersusedbytheBatteryGuard®1000.Thedevicecomeswithtwo
setsofpreconfiguredparameters,oneforchassisdisconnectsandoneforcoachdisconnects.Dependingon
whatmodethedeviceisin,theparametersmayvary.
