Programs & Target Capacity
Introduction
Selection
Indicators
The CADEX C4000 features user-selectable programs
with decision-making capabilities that evaluate the bat-
tery and apply an appropriate service to improve or
restore a battery. This section explains the different
applications,
and recommends the best choice of
program and target capacity settings to be used.
The programs are selected through the Program Selec-
tor Switches on the front panel of the C4000. You can
set each Station to a different program.
Important
Select the correct program before connecting the
battery. Changing the setting after the battery is
connected will have no effect.
While the program is running, the RUN LED for that
Station is on. The program is completed when the RUN
LED turns off and either the READY or FAIL LED comes
on (refer to CHAPTER 4-STATUS
INDICATORS).
