48 volt battery meter
I bought a 48 volt meter; it is a round one just like the rectangular ones with the LED lights that change color as the battery discharges. It did not come with instructions. There are four posts on the back, one marked + one marked – and two marked R. I understand how the + & - hook up but can anyone tell me where the two marked with a R go?
Thanks for any help. |

Take a pic, get it to your computer, when you reply, there will be a icon that looks like a paper clip, click on that and browse to where your pic is on your computer, click upload, wallah!! Good Luck

Re: 48 volt battery meter
If it is a Curtis?Yes.
If it is a Curtis Connecting Model 906 Pin 1 = Battery + Connects to the vehicle’s main positive (+) terminal. Use as short a wire as practical. Pin 2 = Battery – Connects to the vehicle’s main negative (–) terminal Use as short a wire as practical. Note: Pins 1 & 2 are connected across the total battery pack. Pin 3 = Output Signal + or No Option Output Signal option: 5 VDC ±0.5 VDC (90 μA current source) above Empty, 0-0.1 VDC at Empty 1 VDC maximum (90 μA sink); No Option: Pin 3 is left open. Pin 4 = Keyswitch ( marked R ) Connects to Battery + through the switched terminal of the keyswitch. |

Thank you for your help, I'll try tomorrow to wire it, although some of this is a little above my head.

Re: 48 volt battery meter
Do you have a voltmeter to see where 48v would come from your cart?
