4.2. Programming
There are two ways to program a Smart BatteryProtect:
• Via a Bluetooth enabled smartphone or tablet using our
.
• or by connecting the PROG pin to GND pin method.
4.2.1. Programming via VictronConnect app
Programming via VictronConnect app
Requirements prior to programming::
• The battery positive must be connected to the IN terminal. Do not connect the OUT terminal yet.
• The included ground wire must be connected to the battery minus and the GND terminal of the Smart BatteryProtect.
Programming procedure:
1. Open the VictronConnect app on your mobile device. All available Bluettoth devices are displayed.
2. Select the Smart BatteryProtect from the Device list and tap on it. This will open the status screen, showing battery and load
output state.
3. Tap on the cog wheel in the top right corner.
4. Check whether the detected battery voltage matches the system voltage.
5. Select the operation mode (A, B or C - see the
(Li-ion), nothing further needs to be set.
6. Choose between Relay and Buzzer/LED to set the alarm output.
7. Set the preset to the desired combination of shutdown and restart voltage or tap on User defined to define a custom
combination.
8. In case of a user defined preset, tap on Shut down to set the shutdown voltage and tap on Restart to set the restart voltage.
9. Click on the 3 dots in the top right corner and then on Product info.
10. In the Product info menu the PIN code can be changed, a custom name can be set and Bluetooth can be disabled.
If Bluetooth is disabled via the VictronConnect app, this process can only be reversed with programming via
PROG pin procedure as explained in the next paragraph.
4.2.2. Programming via PROG pin to GND pin method
Requirements prior to programming:
• The battery positive must be connected to the IN terminal. Do not connect the OUT terminal yet.
• The included ground wire must be connected to the battery minus and the GND terminal of the Smart BatteryProtect 12/24V.
• The wire loop in the remote on/off terminal block must be removed.
Programming procedure:
1. Use a wire loop or a wired switch (preferably a push button) between the PROG pin and the GND pin.
2. While there is a connection between the PROG pin and the GND pin, the 7-segment display will first step through the
shutdown and restart voltage combinations, as indicated by the numbers 0..9 (see the
).
3. Remove the wire loop or release the push button when the desired voltage mode is displayed.
4. The display will confirm the chosen voltage and default mode (A) twice.
5. Reconnect the wire loop or press the push button again, if a different operation mode (B, C or D) is required (see the
6. Disconnect the wire loop or release the push button when the required mode is displayed.
