The Manager30 features a real time clock (time and date) function which needs to be
setup when the power is first connected.

Battery Charge Screen
The Manager30 monitors current in and out of the house battery, keeping track of the
charge remaining. This screen displays the estimated state of charge of the house battery
in percentage along with a bar graph. For the duration of the initial charge cycle for a
new battery this screen will show ‘Calculating’. This is when The Manager30 is gathering
information about the battery under charge. State of Charge is determined by current in or
out of the house battery, and uses the first charge cycle (Calculating) and the battery size
input by the user at setup to determine what the full State of Charge should be.
Once The Manager30 has calculated the full state of charge for the system this screen
will display either the Time to Full Charge or the Battery Time Remaining, depending on
whether the house battery is currently being charged or discharged. The Manager30 uses
the estimated State of Charge value to calculate, based on the current into and out of the
house battery, the time to reach 100% State of Charge. You may use this to decide when to
disconnect AC power, for example. Similarly, The Manager30 uses the estimated State of
Charge value to calculate - based on the current power usage of the system (e.g. of loads
such as fridges, lighting) - the useful time remaining of the battery.
NOTE:
Zero State of Charge occurs when The Manager30 determines that the amount of
charge removed from the house battery, in Ah, is equal to the amount input by the user at
initial setup.

The Charge per Hour screen displays the average State of Charge of the battery under
charge at the end of each hour across the course of the last day. The most recent hour
is always the right most line on the graph.

The Charge per Day screen displays the maximum and minimum State of Charge of
the battery under charge for each day across the course of the last month. The most
