1. Overview
This configuration guide provides instructions for the following Eltek controllers:
o Smartpack2 Master
o Smartpack S
o Compack
The procedures herein describe how to establish controller communication using a
computer and how to apply parameter settings through both the web interface and
display panel. Screenshots for the web interface are taken from the Compack
controller (unless otherwise noted). Screenshots for the display panel are taken
from the Smartpack2 Master controller.
For the Smartpack2 Master and Smartpack S controllers, setup can be performed
through either the web interface or display panel.
NOTICE: The Compack controller does not have a display panel and therefore
requires the use of a computer and an Ethernet connection for the web interface in
order to adjust parameters.
NOTICE: The Smartpack2 Master controller display must be unlocked in order to
enter the Main Menu. At the default status screen, press the UP arrow key, DOWN
arrow key, and then the ENTER key to unlock the screen and enter the Main Menu.
NOTICE: The Smartpack S controller's navigation keys are slightly different from
the Smartpack2 controller's keys in that the ENTER and CANCEL (X) keys also
function as the LEFT and RIGHT keys, respectively, as follows:
ENTER: A short press of this key navigates to the LEFT. A long press (or,
"press-and-hold") performs an ENTER or confirm action.
CANCEL (X): A short press of this key navigates to the RIGHT. A long press
performs a CANCEL or abort action.

6. Battery Discharge Testing
CAUTION: Battery discharge testing requires the specifications from the
battery manufacturer. DO NOT proceed with battery testing of any kind
without having the documented specifications on hand. If unavailable, contact the
battery manufacturer directly. Eltek does not provide battery discharge
specifications.
There are two methods of executing battery discharge testing: Simplified and
Normal.
o The "Simplified" test does not use the battery table for reference (see page
22 for details on the battery table); instead, it relies on user-entered values
to determine whether the batteries are able to discharge for the entire
duration specified ("Max duration") or meet the amp-hour value ("Max
discharge") before falling to the voltage per cell specified in the "End voltage"
field. All three parameters are user-defined, but must be within the
specifications provided by the battery manufacturer. The test stops when
any one of the parameters mentioned above (Max duration, Max discharge, or
End voltage) is reached.
o The "Normal" test relies on the battery table for reference, using the battery
specifications to determine end voltage. The only editable parameter that
affects termination of the test is "Max duration".
NOTICE: Under "Normal Test", battery discharge results are evaluated only if the
test is stopped by reaching "End voltage". Results are discarded if a test is
terminated due to reaching "Max duration" or any other reasons (such as manually
stopping the test).
Other configurable parameters on the Battery Test Configuration page:
o "Guard time" is the number of hours that a battery test should be delayed
after a loss of AC input power.
o "Interval test" facilitates regular, periodic battery testing and also
accommodates the inhibiting testing during certain months (for example,
summer months).
o "Automatic test" initiates testing when AC input power is lost. Data is
recorded only if "End voltage" is reached.
o "Discontinuance test" is an advanced battery feature that is used to detect
defective or failed battery cells in unbalanced battery strings. It requires at
least two battery strings and a separate shunt in each string. The
Discontinuance Test is not covered in this document.

7. Battery Temperature Compensation
CAUTION: Battery temperature compensation requires specifications from the
battery manufacturer. DO NOT proceed without having the documented
specifications on hand. If unavailable, contact the battery manufacturer directly.
Eltek does not provide battery specifications.
Battery temperature compensation adjusts battery charging voltage after a
predefined temperature threshold has been exceeded. The reference voltage and
temperature slope are specifications provided by the battery manufacturer.
Maximum and minimum compensation voltage should also be defined to protect
load equipment.
The fields available are:
o Temperature Compensation – check the box to enable Temperature
Compensated Charging parameters. Clicking again on the box (uncheck)
disables the parameters.
o Minimum Compensation Voltage – minimum charging voltage per battery cell
(protects connected load equipment).
o Maximum Compensation Voltage – maximum charging voltage per battery
cell (protects connected load equipment).
o Reference Voltage – charging voltage per battery cell recommended by the
battery manufacturer at the reference temperature specified in the
“Reference Temperature” field.
o Reference Temperature – the reference temperature in degrees Celsius that
the battery manufacturer specifies for the charging voltage entered in the
“Reference Voltage” field.
o Temperature Slope – compensation factor in millivolts per degree Celsius per
battery cell recommended by the battery manufacturer

8. Setting Alarms
Alarm settings are configured in the "Alarm Configuration" section of both the web
interface and display menus. Alarm or temperature inputs are assigned to alarm
groups. Alarm groups, in turn, are assigned to output relays. These assignments
are user-configurable. The diagram below (Figure 21) illustrates how inputs can be
assigned to alarm groups, and how alarm groups can be assigned to output relays.
The assignments in the diagram are just examples.

Figure 21 - Alarm Assignments Overview

The next two sections explain different parts of the diagram above (Figure 21).
INPUT ALARMS explains what the inputs are on the "Inputs" page of the controller
and how to assign them to alarm groups. OUTPUT ALARM RELAYS explains the
"Outputs" page of the controller, how to assign alarm groups to relays, and how to
rename alarm groups.
NOTICE: Each controller has different alarm input/output interfaces:
o The Compack controller has three inputs and three output relays; they are
located on the top of the controller.
o The Smartpack2 controller does not have any input/output terminals built in;
instead, an Eltek I/O Monitor is required. I/O Monitors feature six alarm inputs
and six output relays.
o The Smartpack S controller has six inputs and six output relays; they are
located on the left side of the controller (when viewed from the front).

Input Alarms
There are three categories of input alarms:
o Temperature: Temperature inputs are just one of several possible
designations for the input alarm terminals (three for the Compack
controller; six for the Smartpack S; six for an I/O Monitor2 connected
to the Smartpack2). Enabling the input for Temperature indicates that
a temperature probe is connected to the input terminal selected.
o Virtual Input: Virtual inputs are for use as manual triggers to toggle
an assigned alarm output relay on command. There is no physical
terminal associated with these; they are "virtual".
o Programmable Input (ProgInput): Programmable inputs are the
designations for the input alarm terminals, with the exception of
temperature probes. The programmable input designation can be
used for relay input (normally open or normally closed), diode matrix,
clock input, or voltage.
NOTICE: The input terminals used for Temperature are the same physical
terminals used for the Programmable Inputs ("ProgInput"). If the Temperature
input is enabled, then the corresponding programmable input farther down on
the list turns gray and cannot be configured. Similarly, if the Programmable
Input is enabled, then the corresponding Temperature input turns gray and
cannot be configured.

1. Compile the Eltek MIB files in the NMS database.
2. Add the Eltek controller object to the management map.
3. Ping the controller to verify connectivity.
4. Define and configure trap handling and SNMP users (especially for SNMP
v3).
The Management Information Base (MIB) files for Eltek controllers are available
