D-130 Battery Status Indicator - VEXILAR Fish scout Owner's Manual

The D-130 Battery Status Indicator
Digital Battery Status Indicator
A unique battery fuel gauge that recognizes both the
discharge and charge cycle of your battery. It will
sense the current charging condition of the battery,
display the percentage of remaining capacity and
display a charge trend arrow...
( or ).
The D-130 will continue to measure capacity and trend
as long as it is connected to the battery. When an
additional "load" is applied to the battery, the capacity
will decrease according to the load applied.
When the load is removed, the digital readout will
remain at the last shown level and the trend arrow will
switch to ( ). This rebound indicates the battery
is starting to recover, but the digital readout of the
capacity will hold at its lowest level unless you reset
it by disconnecting and reconnecting the D-130 to the
battery.
*If you continue to use the D-130 without disconnecting it, the D-130 will show the last
capacity until the battery falls below this point, then continue to decline with use.
When a charger is attached to the system, the digital readout of capacity will remain the
same, up to an hour, with an (
the digital readout will start to advance. Note, with some batteries, the very top rating
for a charged battery (12.7 volts) or 100% rating will not stay at 100% even though it
might be fully charged. This is normal.
Each battery charges differently and may be fully charged but reads 95%, instead of
100%. This is a normal occurrence with batteries since not all batteries will hold the same
top-end percentage when fully charged and is not an indication of a poor or defective
battery.
When you reconnect the D-130 to the battery, the display will show the current status of
the battery at that moment. Note that the D-130 needs to be connected to the battery
before a charger is connected to give an accurate reading.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the indicators are not on during long storage periods, as excessive
battery drain can result. For Pro Pack systems, disconnect the indicator from the battery
before storage. For Ultra Pack systems, be sure the master power switch is off.
