Select or Adjust Ampere Rate
The screen will display the Ampere and Voltage rates (see Figure 6-LEFT).
Press the DEC or INC button to cycle through and adjust the ampere value to 1.5A.
Press START/ENTER to confirm the values are set.
Note: the slower the charge, the longer life of the charge and the battery. We recommend 1.5A.
Select Voltage Rate
The battery manufacturer has labeled the battery as “
14.8v / 4S
” for the motor batteries and 22.2v /6s for the
equipment / sensor batteries, which is used to determine the charging preference in these instructions (see Figure 5).
The screen displays the new ampere rate, and ready to accept or confirm the voltage rate.
Figure 5—LEFT, Figure 6—MIDDLE: Ampere and Voltage values are displayed and
can be changed using the INC or DEC buttons, then confirm by pressing ENTER.
Press INC or DEC to cycle through and select 14.8 (4S) voltage rate (see Figure 6-MIDDLE).
Press ENTER, and hold for 2 seconds; 3 beeps.
The screen indicates a battery check is being performed.
Confirm by pressing ENTER; listen for a tone that will confirm the setup to be complete.
The display will indicate the setup is complete for that channel/battery (see Figure 7).
Make sure to battery check every channel to ensure every battery will be charged.
**IMPORTANT** Ensure the Capacity Cut-Off is ON and at 16000Ah. We pre-set this in our process but this
should be checked by the end user. See the charger manual for more information.
View All Settings for that Channel (Battery)
Press the INC button to view settings for that channel.
The display will show all charging information for each cell of the battery on that channel (see Figure 7).
Repeat Steps for Remaining Batteries/Complete the Charge
Repeat steps 5.2.3 to 5.2.7 for the remaining three batteries.
When charging is complete, the system will emit a tone.
IMPORTANT!
•
Verify that the charger’s input power requirements are compatible with your region’s line
voltage before proceeding with these instructions.
•
Batteries should be supervised while charging and should not be left unattended. Ensure that the
batteries are disconnected as soon as charging is complete.
•
Do NOT overcharge the batteries! We have PRE-SET the charger to that the batteries cannot
be overcharged; HOWEVER, it is up to the end user to ensure the settings are correct to
prevent explosion or fire.
Figure 7—The display indicates the values that
have been set after confirming.
