Audioroot eSMART ABE

The AUDIOROOT ABE is a battery eliminator which can be used to power smart battery operated devices with an alternative DC source such as an AC/DC power supply, wall adapter or even another battery. A smart battery can also be connected to the ABE's power input connector wich allows larger smart batteries to be used to power devices which normally accept only small format batteries such as the Li-48neo or Li-49Wh.

Wiring of the TA4M input connector :

*Wiring of pins 2 and 3 is not mandatory

The ABE includes a smart battery emulation circuit which allows display of some information on our smart current distributors when a simple DC power supply is connected to the ABE (i.e pins 2 and 3 left unconnected). The ABE's smart battery emulator is compatible with the following devices :

eSMART BG-DH MKII

eSMART BG-DU

eSMART BG-DU-REG

eSMART K-ART

The following informations are available when using the devices listed above with the ABE when smart battery emulation is active :

voltage

current

power

temperature

Ih this configuration (external DC power source and smart battery emulation ON) other values such as cycle count, capacity and runtime are displayed with arbitrary values.
