SMARTBOX™ Controller for HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine WT6500 Owner's Manual - Rev14
The basic operation of the turbine/SMARTBOX™ Controller electronic system is to
optimize the efficient utilization of the energy captured from the wind. Low wind energy
is stored in batteries while loads are connected automatically to the grid. High wind
energy is efficiently and rapidly transferred to the load via the bulk storage capacity of
the batteries.
If the batteries are fully charged and no AC demand is present, the SMARTBOX™
Controller will send the turbine's energy to a dump load, and wait for an AC demand.
The turbine goes through a series of different states. The chart lists and describes
each possible operating state:

The operating status of the WT6500 can be viewed via the LCD screen on the
SMARTBOX™ Controller. To regulate energy consumption, the SMARTBOX™
Controller has two operating states: display and running. The SMARTBOX™
Controller will also maintain one of three different turbine operating states: turbine
running, fault stop and user stop.
