0.5 VDC, then the charger will consider the battery to be defective
and will not attempt to charge the battery.
b.
If the battery is between 0.5 VDC and 2.5 VDC, the charger will
drop to trickle charge mode and attempt to bring the battery up to a
useable voltage without inducing any cell damage.
c.
When the charger gets above 2.5 VDC but is below 4.0 VDC the
charger enters a "bulk charge" state. During this phase of the
charge cycle, the charger will output a constant current of 0.45 A
until the battery voltage reaches 4.0 VDC.
d.
When the battery voltage reaches 4.0VDC, a top-off charge timer
starts. This timer will run for approximately 1.5 hours.
e.
When the top-off timer expires, the Red LCD will turn off and the
Green LCD will illuminate, indicating that the battery may be
removed.
NOTE
If the battery is removed prior to the completion of the
charge cycle, or if power is lost during the charge cycle, then
unplug the charger and then plug it back in to reset the
charger.
If power to the charger is lost and reapplied prior to completion of charging,
the green
light will illuminate indicating the charger is ready for a new cycle. In such instances,
remove and reinsert the battery into the charger to initiate a new charge cycle.
