Copper Bus Bar
Dash-mount LCD display module.
Battery packs live longer and stronger with PakTrakr.Automatically and continuously monitors individual 3.2V Lithium 6V, 8V, or 12V batteries by adding additional remotes (up to Six). You can monitor up to 48 Batteries in Series.
Detects individual battery problems before they destroy your entire pack.
The PakTrakr provides a quick graphical representation of the state of every battery in the pack. But more importantly, the PakTrakr's on board microprocessor, using proprietary algorithms, continuously and automatically keeps a vigilant watch for emergency problems with those batteries, to avoid all - too - common catastrophic pack failures. The PakTrakr's LCD display provides priceless peace of mind and a previously unattainable view "inside" the pack terminals. PakTrakr Installation and Troubleshooting Tips
Installation Cautions
1. Get each Remote working independently BEFORE connecting to other Remotes
or to the Display.
2. The Remote’s blue connectors should ONLY be connected to the expansion port
on other Remotes or to the Display. Do NOT remove the connectors and splice
the wires from multiple Remotes together.
3. The black leads from the Remotes should be connected to the negative post of
the MOST NEGATIVE battery in the sub-string that Remote is monitoring. The
red lead should be connected to the
positive post on the same battery
the black lead is connected to.
4. Keep Remote ring terminals from
inadvertently contacting battery
terminals or the vehicle chassis
during installation.
5. A Remote should only be connected
to an unbroken series string of 1-8
batteries. I.E. a Remote should
monitor batteries 1-6 or 7-12, etc.
NOT batteries 1-5 and battery 10.
6. 8-battery Remotes may NOT be
connected to 12V batteries, as doing
so may destroy the Remote. 8-battery Remotes should only be used on 3.2V,
6V, or 8V batteries. 6-battery Remotes may be connected to any batteries up to
12V.
System Installation Tips
1. Make a “dry run” test of the entire PakTrakr system when possible before routing,
cutting, or splicing any cables. The best place to conduct this test is right next to
or inside the battery bay. Connect the Remotes (see tips below), then connect
the Display and check for proper system operation before the Display and
Remotes are mounted in their permanent locations.
2. Each Remote should be installed and operating correctly before individual
Remotes are connected together or to the Display (see Installing Multiple
Remotes section below).
3. To ensure proper calibration, the Pack should be charged before installing the
PakTrakr system.
Installing PakTrakr Remotes
1. Start with the Remote’s black and red leads. Make SURE the black lead is on
the negative post, and the red lead is on the positive post of the SAME battery,
the MOST NEGATIVE battery in the sub-string the Remote is to monitor.
Connect these leads FIRST, then STOP. The Remote’s LED should be on solid,
and then start blinking within ten seconds. (Note: for NiCd Remotes, the LED |
