System Status Indicator
The Smart View Display (SVD) functions as a Battery Status Indicator (BSI), Hour Meter (HM),
speed controller status monitor, and as an optional maintenance monitor feature. The operation of
each of these functions is described below and continued on the following page.
BSI:
A bar graph representing the current state of
charge is located across the top of the display.
When the batteries are fully charged, all
segments of the bar graph will be on. As the
batteries are used, segments will turn off in the
order of right to left.
When the batteries are discharged to 75%, the
last three segments will flash indicating that you
are approaching the end of the battery cycle.
At this time, the vehicle’s batteries should be
charged as soon as possible.
At 90%, all segments will flash and the vehicles
speed will be reduced. At this time, the vehicle
should be removed from service for charging.
Discharging beyond 90% will result in damage
to the batteries that will shorten the battery
life-span.
Note: The BSI will only reset to full after a
full charging cycle has completed. In
addition, the BSI
will not
reset to full
unless the battery is discharged below
75% before starting the charge cycle.
HM:
The Hour Meter has three functions: Key Hours,
Run Time Hours, and Pump Hours. One of the
functions will be displayed whenever either of
the Hours Indicators are visible at the right side
of the display.
Key Hours: Accumulated length of time in hours
that the key switch is in the “ON” position. When
the display is turned on, the Key Hours will
be displayed for approximately 5 seconds as
indicated by the Key Hours Indicator located at
the lower left of the display. The icon represents
the silhouette of a key.
Pump hours: Accumulated length of time the
hydraulic pump has been in operation. This is
an optional feature. After the Key Hours, the
Pump Hours will be displayed for approximately
5 seconds as indicated by the Pump Hours
Indicator located at the lower left of the display.
The icon represents a motor symbol with a “P”
in the center.
Run Time Hours: Accumulated length of time
that the vehicle has been in operation. Time
is accumulated when the FS-1 switch in the
accelerator module is closed. After the Pump
Hours, the Run Time Hours will be displayed
as indicated by the Run Time Hours Indicator
located at the left of the display. The icon
represents a motor symbol with a “T” in the
center.
