Reading in Power Information

Overview

Monitoring the incoming power to the DXM IO-Board is a good practice to ensure the power supply for the DXM is supplying sufficient voltage and current, especially if the DXM is powered off a battery (such as a 12 V SLA battery commonly used in solar-powered applications). Note that this is only available on DXM100, DXM150, and DXM1000 models.

From the IO-Board, it is possible to read the following:

  1. Battery Voltage (mV)

  2. Battery Charging Current (mA)

  3. Incoming Supply Voltage (mV, solar or power supply)

  4. On-Board Thermistor Temperature (°C)
