The Link 1000 is an instrumentation and control panel designed for use with the Xantrex Freedom series inverter/charger and a single battery bank. It reads like a fuel gauge for batteries – displaying battery state-of-charge at a glance. Inverter and charger functions are independently controlled with the touch of a keypad.
Product Features
* Digital numeric display automatically compensates for ambient conditions and selectively shows: DC volts and amps, battery amp hours consumed, time remaining to full discharge, fault conditions * Multi-colored LED displays: approximate battery state of charge, AC input Push button control of power sharing, equalizing, battery set-up, independent inverter and charger on/off controls * Second sense lead for voltage sensing on an additional battery bank * Power Share and Idle Mode are easily set from the panel * Compatible with 12 or 24 volt sytems * Includes precision DC shunt * Easy to install * One year warranty
Programmable Advanced Functions
* User programmable adjustments of the Freedom Inverter/Charger directly from the front panel * Can be set for four different battery types including wet, gel and AGM * Data is used to recall key information about the battery bank: charge efficiency, deepest discharge, average discharge, and other data
So basically it's a high tech battery monitor you can use to monitor a single battery also dual batteries as well.
Not a bad find the guy who was selling it at the flea market had no clue what it was used for at all. He was like ummm $15.. I immediately bought it since they cost around $150 new.
