4.6.1. Connecting the HAB™
Step
Description
1
Set the HAB™ address using the address DIP switch (refer to 4.6.7
Setting the HAB™ Address).
2
If you have multiple HAB™ units, daisy chain the RJ45 HAB to HAB CAN Bus cable be-
tween each unit. This leaves an empty CanBus port on either end of the string to install
the provided RJ45 120 Ω Resistor Plug. (Refer to Section 4.6.3)
Note:
If a longer cable is needed, it can be replaced with a standard, straight through
RJ45 cable. (10’ Max length)

Optional:
Connect the Modbus communication cable between the Leader HAB™ and
the inverter. Contact KiloVault® for a list of supported inverters.
4
Connect the power cables from the HAB™ to the inverter (or to the DC bus if installing
to multiple units), making sure to use overcurrent protection as required. Torque the
battery cable terminals to 15Nm (11 ft-lb or 132 in-lbs)
Note:
Only 1/0 or 2/0 battery cables are permitted.

Close (switch to “On”) the Inverter main DC Breaker.

Close (switch to “On”) the battery breaker on the side of the HAB™
7
Press and hold the power button until the red “RUN” LED flashes. (Approx. 3 - 5 sec-
onds).

Wait five seconds for the HAB™ units pre-charge function to complete.

If installing more than one HAB™ simply repeat steps 7 & 8 until all the units have been
energized.
