Page 14: Charging Profile
CHARGING PROFILE This charger is controlled by a microprocessor with 9 separate stages of charging batteries. The microprocessor senses the condition of the battery and delivers the right current and voltage. This will optimize the charging process and protect the batteries. Stage 1: Battery Diagnostics and Pre-charge Checks the battery voltage to make sure the connections are working, and that the battery is in a stable condition before starting to charge. - Page 15 Stage 6: Recondition Available for AGM batteries only, this stage charges at a higher voltage to recondition the sulfate of the AGM battery to extend battery life. Stage 7: Analysis Tests whether the battery can hold capacity. Stage 8: Float Delivers low constant voltage with minimum charge current, after the battery is fully charged.
