TDMC+ Teledyne Dual Mode Charger
Charger Operation
The Teledyne Battery Products TDMC+-01 offers two distinctive battery charging methods that are
recommended for all lead-acid batteries. The choice of method is guided by user selections that the
user makes based upon the condition of the battery. Once a charge cycle is initiated the charger will
operate automatically and stop. The LCD text display and the LED color lights display inform the user of
proper connection, charger operation and status of an operational charge cycle.
Organization of the Screen and Options
• When not charging, the charger screen looks similar to the
illustration shown on the right. The screen is organized in 6
sections as denoted by letters A-F:
• Battery Voltage, Battery Current and Charger Temperature:
this information is shown in all modes and updates
continuously.
▪ Indicated Voltage will be 00.0V when a battery is not
connected; or will reflect the voltage of a connected
battery.
▪ Indicated Amperage will be 00.0A
• Charger Operational Status:
• indicates whether the charger is "not charging" and idle, or if a charge cycle is in process.
• Other possible indications include:
▪ Error: Rev Polarity – indicates an error that the charger senses that a battery has been
connected in reverse polarity.
For proper polarity connect the Positive (Red / +) charging cable to the Positive terminal
on the battery. Connect the Negative (Black / -) charging cable to the Negative terminal
on the battery. Reversing these connections results in the charger displaying a "Reverse
Polarity" error. In the event "Rev Polarity" is displayed, disconnect the battery and check
connections. This error does not require a power reset to clear the error.
▪ Error: Not Connected – indicates an error that the charger senses a connection problem
or under-voltage condition during a charge. Disconnect the battery. Inspect the power
cabling for worn, frayed, corroded, or broken wiring. Verify the battery shows a nominal
voltage for its rating, and that the charger is properly configured. Reset the charger by
disconnecting and reconnecting power.
▪ Error: Over-Voltage – indicates an error that the charger reaches an over voltage
condition during the charge. There may be a problem with the connected battery or an
opening in the output cabling. Disconnect the battery. Inspect the power cabling for
worn, frayed, corroded, or broken wiring. Verify no other circuits are connected to the
battery. Reset the charger by disconnecting and reconnecting power.
▪ Error: Over-Current – indicates that the charger reaches an over current condition during
the charge. There may be a problem with the connected battery or a short in the output
cabling. Disconnect the battery. Inspect the power cabling for worn, frayed, corroded, or
broken wiring. Verify no other circuits are connected to the battery. Reset the charger
by disconnecting and reconnecting power.
