Understanding the Enersys Wi-iQ / ZAPI MDI



TEMP warning light is ON when the battery temperature is above 55°C.

An average battery temperature above 55°C should be considered an abnormal temperature.


A condition of low electrolyte level lead to:

  • a faster temperature incensement during the charge

  • a slower cooling (temperature lowering) during the inactivity and discharge

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) info The Wi-iQ3 can be linked to a peripheral sensors allowing battery temperature measurement, water level and unbalanced voltage detections.


The sensors communicate via a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) process.

There are two LEDs on the top of each sensor...


MDI info The visual alarms (red LED) and protection mode (reduced speed) about the end of discharge depends on the estimated state of charge (SOC), this estimation depends on the ZAPI.


The actual state of charge can only be checked by a densimeter.

To evaluate the remaining capacity of a battery and its setting requires the state of charge and densimeter test.

The state of charge on the MDI is displayed by 10 lines, each line corresponds to 10% (two lines = between 20% and 30%).


By ZAPI Software or by the APP ENS Connected is possible to see the exact state of charge, measured the first by the ZAPI system and second by the Enersys system.



The reduced speed function (protection mode=half Ampere) begins at 10% of SOC, measured by ZAPI, this 10% cannot be modified, it can only be deactivated.

When the battery status drops below 20% the battery indicator and a red LED should flash together on the MDI.

When under 10% (protection mode), the battery should flash at a higher frequency on the MDI and the red LED stay on.

The 20% is a modifiable threshold, but it corresponds only to the moment when the warning light starts to flash, it does not charge the protection mode intervention.
