The LOAD MANAGER is a
precision solid state controller which sequentially switches ON seven
relays at 1/2 second intervals. Individual switches, which the user may
install, can select a combination of outputs. These switches may be
used to turn the outputs ON or OFF at any time. The Master Control
switch starts the sequential switch when it is turned ON. Likewise
turning the Master Control switch OFF sequentially deenergizes the
loads at 1/2 second intervals. In addition the LOAD
MANAGER monitors the vehicle’s battery
voltage. When electrical loads exceed the alternator output, the
voltage drops. This is sensed by the LOAD MANAGER and the outputs are
individually deenergized. Up to 5 outputs are controlled. Only as many
are shut down as are required to maintain the system voltage. The shut
down sequence may be altered by programming switches internal to the
LOAD MANAGER and accessible through a removable cap. An output
indicator terminal is provided to permit connecting an LED indicator
which is energized whenever the load shed circuit is functioning. A
remote bypass switch may be installed to completely bypass the LOAD
MANAGER and operate the relays manually. A plug-in connector simplifies
installation. Sequential switching of lamp loads is particularly important
in vehicles with many lights. A Master Control switch that
simultaneously energizes a large number of lights can momentarily
reduce the vehicle’s voltage. Similarly the simultaneous removal of
these loads can cause high alternator output voltage transients which
may damage sensitive electronic equipment. The LOAD MANAGER sequencer
assures that loads are applied and removed gradually, thus eliminating
the possibility of inducing failures in the vehicle’s equipment.
