Charger Status
This value may show: OFF, Standby, Bulk, Absorb, or Float. The Charger has three stages of charge as it reads the
state of the batteries. Upon plugging in the coach or starting the generator, the charger will start in Bulk Charge, Absorb,
then Float.
•
Bulk Charge
- This is the highest state of charge of the three stages. The Charger will remain in this stage until the
Bulk Charge voltage is achieved.
•
Absorption Charge
- This is the second stage of charging and indicates the Bulk voltage for the batteries has been
achieved. The time it stays in Absorption Charge is set in Magnum Advanced Inverter Settings.
•
Float Charge
- This is the last state of charge. After the Absorption time has been reached, the inverter will reduce
the charge to Float Charge and maintain battery voltage.
