- Powermaster GM CS130 Style XS Volt Alternators
Powermaster GM CS130 Style XS Volt Alternators operate as a one-wire alternator, meaning the only connection necessary is the charge wire (or battery output). It has all the circuitry necessary to automatically sense when the alternator is spinning, and therefore energize itself. Although it is a "one wire alternator" other terminals and connections are included for additional features. These secondary features include adjustable voltage, a dual voltage level mode, an indicator light drive, and a stator signal output, all making the XS Volt very versatile.

The voltage adjustment allows the user to change the set point of the voltage system while the unit is running. The set point is the level that the unit sees as the goal, the perfect level of the electrical system. On the XS VOLT, turning a small potentiometer on the back of the alternator can move this set point. The range is 13.5V - 18.5V, allowing one alternator to be used with 12V and 16V batteries -and anything in between. Charging sensitive gel batteries at low voltages or using the hybrid 14V batteries are not a problem for the XS Volt. This means that one XS Volt alternator will work with your car no matter what battery you choose.
The XS VOLT also has an indicator light drive. This is a terminal that will illuminate a bulb when the alternator is spinning, but not charging. This can be used as a simple charging system monitor.
