SET ACCEPT CHG   
14.4V       SEL

 

 

Sets Absorption charge voltage setpoint.  
Range 10.0 to 80.0V. 

SET FLOAT CHG   
13.4V       SEL

 

 

Sets Float charge voltage setpoint.  
Range 10.0 to 80.0V. 

SET ACCEPT TIME 
 2.0HRS     SEL

 

SET FLOAT CURENT 
 1.5A/100AH SEL

 

 

Sets Float Transition Current. Range 0.1 to 10.0A per 100 AH. A setting of
