Detail
Global
Possible Reason(s) / Solution(s)
Discharge timeout
FAIL 142
Battery capacity has exceeded 250% of the rated capacity.
Check that the mAh rating of the battery matches the
C-Code mAh setting. The Discharge rate in the Extended
C-Code may have to be raised.
Discharge wait
DCHG WAIT
Station is on hold until sufficient power is available. Wait
until other stations have completed battery service.
Discharging
DISCHARGE
Battery is being discharged normally.
H
Hot at low voltage
FAIL 156
Battery temperature went to its maximum setting in the
initial charge cycle. Cool the battery to the service
temperature. Raise the temperature sensing in the
C-Code.
The internal cells may have shorted or the battery is old.
Either monitor battery use or discard.
For non OEM battery, turn off temperature sensing.
I
Insert the battery
INSERT
Insert battery into the station.
Intermittent battery
FAIL 129
Battery connection opened 5 times in 1 minute. Check and
clean the battery contacts. Check that correct contacts are
used. Check that the battery is properly inserted. The
Charge rate in Extended C-Code may have to be reduced.
Protection circuitry opened at End of Discharge voltage.
Raise End of Discharge voltage.
For intrinsically safe battery, use I/S settings. Refer to
Intrinsically Safe Settings.
L
Low voltage negative
slope
FAIL 126
The battery is losing charge faster than it is being supplied
into the battery in the initial charge cycle. For NiCd and
NiMH batteries only. The Charge rate in the C-Code may
have to be reduced.
If battery is a high capacity NiCd, reduce the Charge rate
to 0.5C. Otherwise reduce to 0.6C.
If all fails, discard the battery.
