 1.0 Technical Specifications
1.1 Electrical

Power Requirements
Auto-ranging - 12V to 80V DC ± 25% (9V to 100V DC).
Operating Current
Total system current entering the V+ pin is a function of system volt-
age, LED alert/warning icons, backlight, LCD heater and sender loads.
The table below illustrates the typical and maximum operating current
for a panel with a V+ voltage of 12V with the sender inputs left as
open circuit. The LCD heater circuit typically consumes 310mA when
active. The backlight circuit typically consumes 30mA. For higher
V+ voltages the operating current is reduced accordingly.

 2.5 User Interface
Curtis enGage™ IV series instruments include 3 front panel buttons
for navigating through a menu system and programming the following
specific functions:

• Time Of Day Clock

• Battery Discharge Indicator

• Maintenance Intervals

• Settable Hour Meters

• Units - Metric / English Conversion

2.6 Configuring Your Panel

In order to configure an enGage™ IV panel, main power must be
applied (12 – 80VDC) to V+ and V- and the keyswitch must be active.
Following a power up sequence, the OEM logo (if applicable) will be
displayed. Once the start-up process is complete, the specified default
(normal) monitoring screen will appear.

2.6.1 enGage™ IV Menu System

The menu system is activated by pressing and holding the select
button for 3 seconds and then releasing when main menu appears.

2.6.2 Choosing Items Within Menu System

Items are selected within each menu utilizing the up / down
arrows on right side of panel. Once the desired item is chosen /
outlined, press the select button once and release. You will then see a
new set of choices for the previously selected item.

3.1 Auto-range (BDI)

Curtis enGage™ IV has an operating voltage range for V+ from 12 to
80 VDC +/- 25%. The source to which pin J1-17 is connected will
configure the instrument for the correct Battery Discharge Indicator
system voltage. Refer to table below for J1-17 connection depending
on voltage range desired.

Pin J1-17 Connection Guide

System Voltage J1-17Connection
12 No Connection
24 V+
36 V-
48 No Connection
60 V+
72 V-
80 No Connection

When configured to display other instruments (not BDI), terminal J1-

17 is unused. Note that for all analog sender inputs (J1-3, J1-4, J1-5,
J1-6), the sender range is factory configured.
