AUTOMATIC CHARGING MODE
When an Automatic Charge is performed, the charger switches to the Maintain Mode
automatically after the battery is charged. For a battery with a starting voltage under 1 volt, use
a manual charger to pre-charge the battery for five minutes, to get additional voltage into the
battery.
ABORTED CHARGE
If charging cannot be completed normally, charging will abort. When charging aborts, the
charger’s output is shut off, the
GREEN LED
will flash, and the display will show
CHARGE
ABORTED-BAD BATTERY
. Do not continue attempting to charge this battery. Check the
battery and replace, if necessary.
CHARGE COMPLETION AND MAINTAIN MODE
Charge completion is indicated by the pulsing
GREEN LED
and the digital display showing
FULLY CHARGED-AUTO MAINTAINING
. This indicates the charger has switched to the
Maintain Mode of operation. In this mode, the charger keeps the battery fully charged by
delivering a small current when necessary.
NOTE:
If the charger has to provide its maximum
maintain current for a continuous 12 hour period, it will go into Abort Mode (see Aborted
Charge section). This is usually caused by a drain on the battery, or the battery could be bad.
Make sure there are no loads on the battery. If there are, remove them. If there are none, have
the battery checked or replaced.
MAINTAINING A BATTERY
The BC2410 maintains 24 volt batteries, keeping them at full charge. It is not recommended for
industrial applications.
