System Monitor PSM 2
REV 1A – Software V3 Page 3
The System Monitor PSM2 is designed for the supervision and control of all philippi
components that are connected to the PBUS system. It is the main display and
operational interface, and the electrical system can be supervised, operated and
controlled using the PSM2 system monitor. Additional System Monitors PSM2 can be
added to show different information simultaneously at the same location or at various
locations to enable monitoring and control from multiple stations. These monitors will
allow all information to be shown independent of each other.
The System Monitor PSM2 operates as a central monitor, and the system can be
easily expanded from a simple battery monitor comprising of a PBUS system monitor
plus a battery Shunt SHC, up to a multi-functional monitor and control panel in a
digitally switched CAN-bus system.

6.2 -BUS Network
This configuration can delete the whole system so only the system integrator is
allowed to carry it out!
Logged devices
This shows the devices which are or were connected to the PBUS network at the time
of the last scan of connected devices.
Connect devices
Pressing this button will initiate a scan of all connected active devices. They are
identified and shown on a list. If new devices are connected into the network, they will
be added automatically at the time of their connection. If there were changes in the
connected devices (e.g. new devices, devices omitted or not ready-to-operate) these
changes will be recognised automatically and only connected devices will be listed.
Renew device addresses
By pressing this button all sub-addresses of the connected and active PBUS network
components are reset. This will only be required if new components are added which
have been used on other PBUS networks, and where the possibility of duplicate
addresses may exist. NOTE: This function should only be used in the case noted
above, otherwise the allocation and display order of connected devices may be altered
or otherwise affected.
PSM Address
Each PSM2 System Monitor connected to the PBUS network requires a different
address in order to avoid conflicts. If more than one PSM2 System Monitor is
connected to the network, each one must have a unique address, from between
0 and 15.
NOTE: If only one PSM2 System Monitor is connected, it must have the address “0“.
IMPORTANT: If there is only one PSM2 Monitor available, it has to hold the address
“0”, otherwise the address assignment to the connected Interfaces is not going to work.

REV 1A – Software V3 Page 10
6.3 Data Logging
If there is an SIM card inserted into the
PSM2 this function is activatable. With
this function, you can record all the
measurable data and analyse them on
your PC later. A new folder is created for
each measurable parameter. The data is
stored in CSV format and can for better
analyse be read into a spreadsheet.
The period of recording can be adjusted
between 1 minute up to max. 60
minutes. For each device group, it can
be defined if the data should be
recorded.
6.4 Device
In this submenu, all through the PBUS
connected devices get configurated.
Please refer to the appropriate manuals
of the individual PBUS compatible
devices.
6.5 Alert management
For the display of battery -, energy-, main
switch and tank alert the alert notification
can be activated for each monitor. If the
alert notification is turned off, the system
will not show any alarms. If the alert
notification is turned on, it`s possible to
change the device specific (e.g. battery-
or tank) settings.

System Monitor PSM 2
REV 1A – Software V3 Page 11
Off: For this device the alert notification is turned off and no alarm will be
displayed /reported.
Message: For this device the alert notification will be displayed in form of a
report
Message For this device the alert notification will be shown on the display as a
+ Buzzer report and simultaneously an acoustic signal occurs and the display
is flashing.
6.5 System time
The PSM2 is equipped with a battery-backed real-time clock, which makes it possible
to have a punctual time stamp in the protocoling. It also makes it easier to assign the
alerts temporal.
The time and date can be adjusted through the keypad.
Should the clock have deviations they can be
adjusted through the Setup System Time.
Thereby 1 Hz comply with a deviation of 2,6
seconds per day.
If the monitor starts with the date set to 1970
the time must be adjusted accordingly. If the
installed header is empty, the battery must be
removed and replaced. Therefore, the rear lid
must be removed and the header has to be
shoved out of the holder and be replaced with
a new battery (CR2032-3V).
6.7 Consumer (digital switch)
Here the user can assign the consumer relays to the display buttons.
This assignment has to be carried out individually for each PSM2 monitor, because
each PSM2 monitor can be configurated differently.

alarm the alert symbol will change its colour to red. A list with all present alarms will
appear as soon as a new alarm is reported.
If you`ve chosen “Message + Buzzer” in
the alert management, a new alarm will
be indicated through an acoustical and
optical signal (the screen is going to flash
in the rhythm of the acoustic sound) .
The acoustic signal chimes for a max.
length of 60 seconds, it can be turned off
earlier by touching the screen.

System Monitor PSM 2
REV 1A – Software V3 Page 14
7.1 Submenu battery
Needed interface / component: SHC 312 / SHC 612 / EM-box.
A maximum of 4 batteries or battery banks are displayed per page. Further batteries
can be displayed on subsequent pages. The pages can be changed by pressing the
arrow buttons at the top.
If an active SHC Shunt is connected, the available capacity is shown by the height of
the coloured bar section in the appropriate battery symbol.
The available capacity is shown as a percentage along with the voltage and
charging/discharging current. By tapping the battery symbol, you can switch between
displaying available capacity, the remaining time to the capacity alarm or estimated
time of charging, and – if a temperature sensor is connected at the shunt - the
temperature.
The current is displayed dynamically to 3 digits (e.g. 120A, 45,0 A or 0.01A). A minus
sign before the amperage reading means that the battery is discharging. If no minus
sign is present, then the battery will be charging at the amperage shown .
The blue area shows the useable capacity before the alarm threshold. The dark blue
area shows the theoretically available capacity until the battery is completely
discharged (deep discharge). A deep discharge should be strictly avoided, as the
battery will almost certainly be permanently damaged. If the shunt SHC determines
that the point of deep discharge has arrived sooner than it should normally be (e.g. by
aging), the unusable part will be displayed in the dark grey area.
Appears in the battery symbol the
message "Not synchronized" then the
shunt SHC was restarted and the display
of the battery capacity does not yet
correspond to the true capacity level. To
synchronize the shunt SHC the
connected battery bank has to be fully
charged with a battery charger. If the
battery is fully charged the message
extinguishes automatically.
If the capacity falls below a set threshold a warning appears on the display. The
remaining capacity is shown in orange and the battery symbol outline is shown red.
If the battery is nearly empty or deeply discharged or if an over-voltage occurs (battery
voltage > 15 V) a warning appears. The remaining capacity is shown in orange and the
battery symbol outline is shown red.
An additional voltage can be supervised (e.g. the voltage of a starter battery). This
voltage will be shown by a symbol with white outline and no colour, together with the
measured voltage. If this voltage falls below the adjusted alarm threshold the battery
symbol is shown red.

7.2 Submenu Tank
Needed interface/component: CMT2
7.2.1 Features of Tanks
By touching on one of the tank graphics, the volume indication changes between
percentage, litres, and a no-volume display. If a tank is configured for a DFS Flow
Sensor, the percentage volume can be changed manually to the new level by tapping
on the name of the tank underneath the graphic. This will bring up another screen
where you can enter the new level, i.e. enter 100% when filling the tank completely.
For a water maker, we recommend a tank size of 100 times the hourly water making
capability.
7.2.2 ower save Mode CMT2
To reduce the current consumption when using ultrasonic sensors, which draw approx.
50mA per sensor, the “Power save” mode can be activated.
The Power save mode is activated as soon as all PSM2 system monitors connected
are in sleep mode (display off). At that point, the measuring changes from continuous
to a cyclic routine. If the power supply voltage is between 11.5V and 13 V (23 V and
26 V), a measurement is taken every 30 minutes with a duration of 5 minutes. If the
power supply voltage drops below 11.5 V (23 V), a 5-minute measurement is made
once every 2 hours. Above 13V (26 V) the power save mode is switched off
automatically. Below 10V no measurement is taken.
If the system is in Power save mode, a measuring cycle can be initiated as soon as
you activate the tank menu to obtain up-to-date volumes.
During periods where no measurements are being taken, the last measured results are
shown.

System Monitor PSM 2
REV 1A – Software V3 Page 16
7.2.3 Troubleshooting tank sensors
If the tank monitor shows wrong values or “---“, first check that the sensor is connected
properly. Next check the wiring between the sensor and the tank interface CMT2, as
this has shown to be the main source of errors.
If the shown values are obviously incorrect, check that the voltage of the power supply
of the CMT2 and the sensors is above 10V.
7.3 Submenu Energy
Needed interface/component: SHL312 / EM-box
This menu shows the energy balance of the on board DC system. Depending on the
deployment of shunts SHL or an EM-box, the current flow can be analysed in detail.
The Energy page shows, which energy sources are feeding the system, and at what
amperage, and which loads are taking energy and at what rate. It is also possible to
see if the batteries are being charged or discharged, and arrows show the direction of
the current flow.
The charging sources are shown in the
upper part of the display, the loads in
the lower part. A “Combi” Inverter/
Charger will appear on the bottom line
and will show amps being charged or
consumed, but will show only
accumulative charging Ah.
In this menu, all batteries are combined
and shown as one battery in order to
give a clear overview. A detailed
analysis of the battery systems can be
obtained by opening the battery page.
7.3.1 Features Energy
By touching the symbols, the display can be switched to show the accumulative
Ah consumed or delivered since the counter was last reset.
If an ACE charger is connected to the network, there is more information available
which will appear in a new window after tapping the symbol “Charger”.

8. Software Update
The software of the PSM2 can be updated by means of a micro-SD card. After having
received the software by e-mail, the files need to be copied onto an empty SD-card.
First, remove the power supply plug of the PSM2 and insert the SD-card at the slot of
the right hand side of the rear cover.
The power supply can then be plugged in again and the screen should show that new
software has been recognised and is being installed automatically. You can see the
software updating progress by a blue bar.
After the update is finished please remove theSD-card, which must be done after
removing the power supply. The software update is now operational.
If the PSM2 operates normally after inserting the SD-card, it signifies that no new
software has been detected or that the SD-card hasn`t been recognised.
