CAUTION: Equipment Damage.
Excessive over-charging and gasing too
vigorously can damage the battery plates
and cause shedding of active material from
the plates. An equalization that is
too high, or too long, can be damaging.
Review the requirements for the particular
battery being used in your system.
Equalization (EQ) charging raises the battery voltage
above the standard absorption voltage so that the
electrolyte gases.
4.2 Load Information
CAUTION: Do not wire an AC inverter of any
size to the load terminals of the EcoPulse
- damage to the load control circuit may result.
Wire inverters directly to the battery or battery
bank.
4.3 LED Indications
KEY:
G = green
G - Y - R = flashing sequentially
Y = yellow
G / Y
R = red
G / Y - R = G and Y flashing together,
4.3.1 Power-up
Normal power-up: Status LED flashes G, then SOC
LEDS flash G - Y - R, then SOC LEDs indicate battery
charge status with a single battery status LED.

Operation
= flashing together
alternating with R flash
Failed bootload: Status LED flashes G, then SOC LEDS
flash G - Y and stop on solid Y.
