Electrical Troubleshooting STATUS LED ERROR CODE TABLE There are three status lights (LED’s) on the charger name plate. These LED’s normally indicate the current operating state of the charger. If all three LED’s are flashing, it indicate an error has occurred in the charging cycle.
Electrical Troubleshooting TROUBLESHOOTING To test charger operation: Connect a DC volt meter to the main battery positive and negative terminals. Attach a clamp on DC Ammeter to one of the charger DC output wires. Plug the charger into an AC outlet. Wait for charger to start (up to15 seconds), the ammeter should display the DC Amp rating of the charger (plus or minus 10%) indicating that the charger is on (constant current mode).

Term Value Condition V1: Voltages are temperature compensated See Chart Flooded batteries relative to the temperature of the charger at the 2.383 Volts Per Cell Gel Batteries time the charge cycle is started.
Electrical Troubleshooting OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND THEORY OF OPERATION Typical specification plate (reference only, specifications will vary for different chargers) ® ® The model HBS 600W and HBS 1000W chargers are designed as automatic chargers. The charger turns itself on when it is plugged into the wall outlet and turns off when the batteries are fully charged. Once the charging cycle is complete, the charger will monitor the battery voltage.
Electrical Troubleshooting TESTING THE CHARGING CYCLE In typical installations, The charge cycle will be completed in 8 to 12 hours depending on the state of charge of the batteries when the charge cycle was started. NOTE: The charge cycle time is limited to 20-hours (max). A fault will occur if charging time exceeds the time limit.
Electrical Troubleshooting STATUS LIGHT ERROR CODE TABLE If the Fault light is ON or flashing, it indicates a problem has occured during the charging cycle. If the light is flashing, it will flash from 2 to 6 times before a pause. This is the fault code. Refer to the table below.
Electrical Troubleshooting TROUBLESHOOTING NOTE: There are no internally serviceable components in the charger. To test charger operation: Connect a DC volt meter to the main battery positive and negative terminals. Attach a clamp on DC Ammeter to one of the charger DC output wires. Plug the charger into an AC outlet.
