Quick Overview

The Christie DataFX Battery Cell Monitor measures, displays and prints battery service reports using the EPSON LX-300+ Serial Printer Kit (not included, available with 115 or 230v input). Designed to interface with the RF80-K Charger/Analyzer, the DataFX includes a precision external current shunt which connects between the RF80-K and battery to measure charge/discharge current. When DataFX is used with the ABMS-4 Battery Management Software, it displays individual cell voltage readings on your PC in real time, then displays and captures the DataFX End-of-Task Report in a Battery Database, linked to an Electronic Work Order. For complete PC control and automated battery processing, please check out our ABMS-8 and ABMS-10X Battery Management Systems.
