GENERAL OPERATION

General Operation

The ChargePro

™

Series includes 1 blue AC Power LED with 4 LEDs per battery bank

with the following functions:

Note: Battery and wrench Icons shown above the LEDs are print graphics only and do not have LEDs
behind them. They are shown to visually represent what mode the charger is in during the charge
process. The LED's below indicate status/fault information as shown in the following table.

Blue AC Power LED:

LED Illuminates blue when the charger is connected to AC power.

The following Charge Mode LEDs are for each individual battery connected and will
sequentially illuminate as follows:

Red Charging LED:

Initially the red Charging LED will flash after AC power is applied,
indicating the charger is in process of analyzing the wiring
connections, polarity and that the battery connected is > 4 VDC
and is capable of accepting a charge.
If everything checks out ok the red charging LED will transition
to solid ON, indicating the battery is being charged. When
completed, the red Charging LED will turn OFF as the charger
output enters into its conditioning mode.

Amber Conditioning LED:

The amber conditioning LED will illuminate solid ON indicating
the charger output is in Conditioning mode for up to 3 hours.
When completed the amber Conditioning LED with turn off.

Green Auto Maintain LED:

The green Auto Maintain (Energy Saver)LED will illuminate solid

ON indicating the battery connected is fully charged and is being
monitored to automatically maintain the fully charged battery
during short and long term storage periods.

Red Fault LED:

The red Fault LED will illuminate solid ON if there is a loose wiring
connection, reverse polarity, DC over-voltage or extremely low DC
voltage < 4 VDC condition that is present. For batteries < 4 VDC
the battery should be removed and taken to your local battery
dealer for testing prior to trying to charge the battery again.
See page 26 for further trouble shooting details.

GENERAL OPERATION

ChargePro’s 5-Stage Performance Charging algorithm is fully automatic and designed
to maximize battery performance and extend battery life.

Stage 1 - Analyze Mode:

AC Power is applied. ChargePro’s red Charging LED will flash indicating it

is analyzing individual wiring connections for proper connection/polarity and that each battery is over
4.0 VDC and capable of accepting a precharge. When completed any errors will trip a battery specific
red fault LED, or if no faults are present the red Charge LED will illuminate solid red.

Stage 2 - Precharge Mode:

For batteries under 10 volts, this mode is designed to pulse the battery

up to 10.5 volts before accepting full rated constant current (Stage 3). During this mode the red charging
LED will be illuminated with a solid on.

Stage 3 - Constant Current Charge Mode:

During this mode the red charging LED will be solid on

indicating each battery is being charged in constant current mode as controlled by temperature until the
battery voltage is raised to 14.6 volts DC and the red Charging LED will shut off.

Stage 4 - Constant Voltage Conditioning Mode:

During this mode the amber Conditioning LED will

be solid on indicating each battery is being conditioned at 14.6 volts for up to 3 hours until the battery is
fully charged. When completed the amber Conditioning LED with turn off and the charger will enter into Stage 5.

Stage 5 - Energy Saver Auto Maintain Mode:

During this mode the blue AC Power and green Auto

Maintain LED will be solid on indicating each battery is being monitored while the charger is in standby
mode consuming little to no power until the battery drops under 12.8 volts (fully charged) and the
charger will turn on and auto maintain the battery in a fully charged state. This is fully automatic and
safe for short and long term storage.

Note: The above applies to each individual charging output. Timing of LED status will vary
from battery to battery based on discharge state of the battery connected.
