Configuration
• Equalize Battery Charge
This DIP Switch is momentarily engaged to begin the process of equalizing the internal resistance
of your battery's cells. This can extend the useful life of certain types of batteries; consult with
your battery's manufacturer to determine if your batteries could benefit from this process. The
charge equalization process is automatic and once started can only be stopped by removing the
input power.

Setting Procedure:

• Move to "Equalize" (DOWN) position for three seconds.
• Move to "Reset" (UP) position and leave it there.
CAUTION: Battery charge equalization should only be performed in
strict accordance with the battery manufacturer's instructions and
specifications.
CAUTION: Do not leave DIP switch #3 in the down position after
beginning process.

• Limit Battery Charger
To prevent overheating smaller batteries, the charger on these UPS systems is initially set to
deliver only a fraction of its maximum power rating to connected batteries. If you are using either
of these APS systems with a larger battery or battery system (over 100 amp-hours), you may
switch your charger to full power without overheating your batteries.
