Battery monitor to laptop

By Powerabout on Mar 25, 2009 at 2:36 AM 4 Vote 0 Votes

Does anyone make a battery monitor that allows you to record the data to a laptop so you could graph it etc.
Thanks

    Hi Powerabout, yes we do: the BMV-602 and you the need the datalink accessory, see our website. There are other manufacturers that have them as well.

    I have a CruzPro VAH 110 which outputs sentences like:

    $IIXDR,I,-005.2,A,VAH35*1B
    $IIXDR,G,0496,,VAH35*5B
    $IIXDR,U,13.14,V,V301*00
    $IIXDR,U,00.00,V,V302*04
    $IIXDR,U,00.00,V,V303*05

    It looks like the starter battery (voltage only monitored) was not connected when those data were collected.

    Many thanks, how about a bit of hardware ( no display required) plus cable and software for the tradesman to do one off measurements for drain and re charge of any system?

    Might be a good selling tool for a fixed
    installation to a customer?
