ENTER / SETUP and SELECT buttons, used to 

adjust settings.

2 & 25) 

Background light for button, used also to show 

unit is operational.

3)-11)

  The  left  column  of  LEDs  have  3  different 

functions.  Firstly,  on  unit  start  up  the  battery  type  is 
displayed. Secondly, after startup it becomes an input 
voltmeter.  Thirdly,  during  custom  setting  the  voltage 
scale is used to set the voltage - refer to later.

12) 

This LED has 3 meanings. Firstly, when on battery 

type selection mode this is the LiFePO

4

 lithium battery 

indicator. Secondly, on default mode (most times) this 
shows  the  charger  is  on  fast  charge  mode.  Thirdly,  if 
flashing,  then  the  unit  is  in  standby  and  was  in  fast 
charge prior to entering standby. 

13-15)

  These  LEDs  show  the  battery  charge 

progression through its cycle. 

15)

 Flash when in standby.

16-24)

  Has  3  functions:  Firstly,  during  operation  they 

show the output voltage. Secondly, if an alarm is present 
the  alarm  shows  up.  Thirdly,  this  row  is  used  in  the 
custom setup procedure to set timing functions, voltages 
and  time  factors.  Its  general  function  is  as  an  output 
voltmeter,  in  the  event  2  LEDs  are  on  the  voltages  is 
between the 2 settings, if the top or bottom red LED is on 
then  the  voltage  is  outside  the  parameters  off  the 
voltmeter. 

16)

 High voltage, if on solid it is high output voltage, if 

flashing it is high input voltage.

temperature trip.

18)

  No  faults  (solid  on).  Power  Pack  mode  /  live 

voltage output (flashing). 

19) 

No regen. mode or regen. timer at 0 = solid LED. 

Regen on / timer on = flashing LED.  

20) 

Remote Battery sense cable connected (solid).

Battery sense voltage drop in cable outside the 

21) 

prescribed  1.5V  drop  maximum,  thicker  cable 
required - LED flashing.

22) 

Device’s  power  ability  reduced  due  to  high 

ambient temperature or voltage drop in output cable 
to  big.  Alarm  will  be  in  conjunction  with  other 
information alarm. If flashing unit is in night mode 
with reduced power and low fan speed.

23)

  Low  voltage  alarm,  low  voltage  on  input  = 

flashing LED. Input alternator not supplying enough 
power  or  failed.  Low  voltage  output  =  solid  LED. 
Something  consuming  a  lot  of  power  or  unit  not 
working. No voltage output then LED on solid. 

24) 

If  flashing  then  battery  temperature  too  high. 

Solid LED is in 

SVEM mode - Stationary Vehicle 

Engage Mode. 

27) 

Numbers  relating  to  battery  custom  setup  (if 

used) this is the charge factor number.

28)

 Numbers relating to custom setup mode these 

numbers  relate  to  timing,  i.e.  maximum  and 
minimum time settings.
