Figure 4-1: Standard Battery Profile Codes and Their Corresponding Battery Profiles
To change the active battery profile on your charger, remove the charger cover and position the jumper as shown
in Figure 4-2. Profile 1 is the primary battery profile and the factory-configured jumper position. Profile 2 is the
secondary battery profile. If changed from the factory-configured jumper position, Profile 1, mark the charger
ratings label or add an additional label or tag.
Figure 4-2: Setting the Internal Battery Profile Jumper Determines the Battery Type
CAUTION: THIS CHARGER IS FOR USE ONLY ON RECHARGEABLE DEEP-CYCLE LEAD-ACID
BATTERY SYSTEMS OF THE SAME TYPE AS THE SELECTED BATTERY PROFILE. BATTERIES
IMPROPERLY MATCHED WITH THE CHARGER MAY BURST CAUSING PERSONAL INJURY AND DAMAGE
TO BATTERIES OR CHARGER.
Battery manufacturers frequently use the same battery cases for different battery types. Wet batteries have
removable cell caps. Water electrolyzed by discharging and charging the battery is replaced through these
openings. Sealed batteries are generally distinguished by non-removable cell caps. The physical appearance of
the battery case is frequently the same as a wet battery, though the cell caps are generally not removable. Refer
to the battery manufacturer's information panel on the battery case to determine the type battery you have. If the
information panel is missing or not legible, do not use the battery.
5. OFF-BOARD (SHELF) VERSUS ON-BOARD (BUILT-IN) CHARGERS
X-Series chargers are available in either off-board or on-board configurations. Chargers configured for on-board
use are denoted as such in the type field on the charger ratings label, (for example “wet/onbrd”).
