Setting Battery Types on the Main Unit
You can attach different types of lead-acid batteries to the
Freedom HF. Before installing batteries make sure that you
configure the unit to optimize the charging process.
The settings can be changed by adjusting the dip switches found
on the main unit behind the display panel.
