8 Learning Cycle and Golden Image

The learning cycle process is the initial optimization that Impedance Track gauges perform in order to ensure accuracy of the gauge in reporting state of charge. The learning cycle allows the gauge to learn a specific battery’s resistance and maximum chemical capacity, ensuring accuracy as the cell ages. It is necessary that a correct ChemID, with less than 3% of error, has been identified and programmed into the gauge before attempting a learning cycle.
