8. With cables securely connected, the discharger unit
will display the voltage of the battery set.
Depending on battery condition and state of charge, the
battery voltage may be considerably higher than 48
9. Press the START/STOP button to begin a discharge
cycle. The cooling fan on the discharge unit should
start running.
10. Note the time of day and the ambient (room)
temperature for reference at end of discharge cycle.
NOTE: Although the discharger unit monitors total
discharge time, it is advisable to note the time of day
to compare with the logged data in the discharger
unit at the end of the discharge cycle. The tempera-
ture is required for calculation of Adjusted Discharge
Time later.

volts.
WARNING
Do not touch the back or sides of the case during or just
after operation of the discharge unit. A large amount of
energy is being dissipated by the unit and the case will
become hot. To reduce the risk of fire, do not use the
discharger near flammable materials or vapors.
Never disconnect the discharge unit from the batteries
while the unit is operating. The large amount of energy
being dissipated by the resistive element could cause
damage to the discharge unit if the fan is not running.
11. The discharger will stop when one of the following
conditions occurs:
• START / STOP button is pressed.
• Shut-off voltage (42 volts) has been reached.
• Maximum time shut-off. This is programmable from 5
to 240 minutes, but should be set to a minimum of 200
minutes.
• Over temperature shut-off.
12. When a discharge cycle has been terminated (the
discharger shuts off, and OFF is displayed on the
screen) the cooling fan may continue to run for a
certain amount of time to cool the internal coils.
13. Check to see which type of shut-off has occurred by
pressing and releasing the DISPLAY button.
• If the value in Func2 is the value programmed for
maximum timer, then the terminating method was by
maximum time shut-off.
• If the value in Function 3 is the value programmed for
the shut-off voltage, then the terminating method was
by shut-off voltage.
• If NEITHER maximum time or shut-off voltage caused
the termination, then it was caused by over-
temperature or by someone pressing the START/
STOP button.
• If overheat was the cause, make sure nothing is
obstructing the ventilation area around the discharge
unit and that the unit is at least 18 inches from walls or
equipment. Be sure cooling fan is operating (see
discharger instructions).
14. Press the DISPLAY button to view Func2 (discharge
time) and record the time in minutes from the display.
