This manual covers the operation of the DSE Configuration Suite for DSE94
DSE9452, DSE9462 & DSE9479) battery chargers. Separate manuals cover the remaining DSE modules supported by the software.
The DSE Configuration Suite allows the DSE9400 series to be connected to a PC via ‘USB A –USB B’ cable. Once connected the various operating parameters within the charger can be viewed or edited as required by the engineer. This software allows easy controlled access to these values and also has diagnostic monitoring facilities.
The
DSE Configuration Suite should only be used by competent, qualified personnel, as changes to the
operation of the module may have safety implications on the panel to which it is fitted. The information contained in this manual should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the appropriate module documentation. This manual only details which settings are available and how they may be used. A separate manual deals with the operation of the charger (See section entitled
document).

CHARGER FAILURE
Parameter
Alternative Charge Source
Description = The Alternative Charge Source is disabled and the Charger Failure Alarm activates when the battery charger measures a voltage higher than its output voltage. The alarm is delayed by the configurable Delay timer. This is useful when the battery charger switches from
Bulk mode to Float
charging mode, as the battery voltage remains higher than the battery charger output voltage for a short amount of time.
= The Alternative Charge Source is enabled and the Charger Failure Alarm no longer activates when the battery charger measures a voltage higher than its output voltage. This is useful when a DC Alternator is fitted on the engine and supplies a voltage higher than the battery charger.

= The Short Circuit Alarm is enabled and activates when a short Delay timer. Set the time delay for the Short Circuit Alarm. circuit is detected for longer than the configurable
Delay
This is useful to delay the alarm when the engine crank motor is engaged; the battery charger detects the current drawn by the crank motor as a short circuit. In this case, the charger immediately switches its output off for protection but the alarm is delayed.
4.2.6
SOFT START
NOTE: Available only on the DSE9470, DSE9472, DSE9473, DSE9474, DSE9476, DSE9480, DSE9481 & DSE9483 Intelligent Battery Chargers. Parameter
Enable
Description = The Soft Start is disabled. = The Soft Start is enabled. The charger rises its output voltage to the required DC voltage level in steps, and takes longer time to reach the maximum output voltage level. This feature helps to reduce the inrush current caused by the capacitive loads or deeply discharged batteries.

AUTOMATIC BATTERY VOLTAGE DETECTION
NOTE: Available only on the DSE9470, DSE9472, DSE9480, DSE9482 Intelligent Battery Chargers. Parameter
Enable
Description = The Automatic Battery Voltage Detection is disabled. = The Automatic Battery Voltage Detection is enabled. The charger determines whether a 12V or 24V battery is connected automatically by
sensing the battery voltage level and decides to switch to 12V or 24V charging mode.
The charger switches to the 12V mode when the battery voltage is below the configured
Switching Threshold level.
The charger switches to the 24V mode when the battery voltage is over the configured
Switching Threshold level.
NOTE: The Battery Type cannot be determined automatically by this feature, the user must still select the correct Battery Type from the Battery Profile section.
4.2.8
DEEP SLEEP MODE
NOTE: Available on the DSE9474 & DSE9476 Intelligent Battery Charger. Parameter
Enable
Description = The Deep Sleep Mode is disabled. = The Deep Sleep Mode is enabled. The charger reduces its power consumption from the battery when the Mains supply is not available.
