•
The unit is preset for Battery Type 1 (OFF-OFF-OFF) for a sealed / VRLA battery.
•
For a generic non-sealed / vented / flooded / well cell Lead Acid battery, choose
Battery Type 4.
NOTE:
1. All Voltage values are at battery temperature of 25ºC (77ºF).
2. All the voltages given in the Table are for 12V Battery System.
For 24V Battery Systems multiply the voltage values by 2.

These are generic Lead-Acid – wet cell (Lead Antimony, Lead
Calcium), sealed AGM, sealed Gel Cell and Lithium battery types.
This is the Absorption Voltage Regulation Set Point. Note:
This voltage will be displayed as "Bulk" on Screen 5 of LCD
Display (Fig. 5.3).
This is the Float Voltage Regulation Set Point. It will be
displayed in Screen 5 of LCD Display (Fig 5.3).
be displayed in Screen 6 (Fig 5.3) under "EQU".
The charging at the selected Equalization Voltage will
continue for this number of hours. This is displayed in Screen
6 of the LCD Display (Fig. 5.3) under "EQU-T".
Automatic equalization is enabled (with DIP Switch 5).
Equalizations are typically done once a month. Most of the
cycles are 28 days so equalization will begin on the same day of
the month. Each new cycle will be reset as equalization starts so
that setting day period will be maintained. This is displayed in
Screen 6 of the LCD Display (Fig. 5.3) under "CYCLE".
