The green LED is illuminated whenever the charge cycle is complete and the internal circuitry has determined the batteries to
be fully charged. The green LED will blink during the finishing stage of the charge cycle. After the completion of the charge
cycle, the green LED will remain on steady during the float-maintenance stage.
During this final stage current is only
flowing to the battery system for 5 minutes and then current will stop completely for 60 minutes.
Your system provides an equalization stage every 30 days while plugged in. If the charger is normally disconnected
from A/C after completing charge, equalization can be accomplished by plugging back into A/C whenever this stage is
desired. Battery manufacturers recommend that equalization is done once a month in order to further reduce sulfation
on the lead plates of a battery, which helps promote longer battery life. Note: During this process the LEDs will go
through their normal routine(Red LEDs counting up for % of charge along with the illuminated Red LED Battery Type)
and then the Green LED and Red Battery Type LED will blink) until the unit returns to the maintenance mode and a
steady Green LED and steady Red Battery Type LED. (Not applicable to Gel Profile)
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: No LED indicators illuminated on battery status indicator.
Solution Sequence:
1. Confirm that current is being delivered to the charger. Use a meter or test light to check the AC power supply from its
source through all connecting points up to the charger.
2. Check that the AC circuit breaker (on front of the unit) is depressed.
3. Call technical support for further assistance (
615.471.5300
).
PROBLEM: The charge status indicator changes rapidly back and forth from red to green or the green LED will not
illuminate after excessive charging time (24 hours or more).
Solution Sequence:
1. Disconnect AC power from the charging system. This indication may signify a possible battery problem.
2. Call technical support for further assistance (
615.471.5300
).
PROBLEM: A green LED was illuminated before disconnecting the power from the charger, but upon reconnection,
red LEDs appear and remain on.
This is the normal operating procedure for the system. It indicates that a reanalysis of the battery status was initiated and after
a series of steps the green LED will illuminate.
LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (LED) FAULT CODE INDICATIONS
The microprocessor is constantly monitoring the charger circuitry and will both detect and display blinking LED indications if a
fault is detected. The battery type LED will be
OFF
during a fault code condition.
When first connected to DC (AC not connected), the LEDs will display one or more of the following:
1.
The LEDs will flash the charger’s ID code
(this is for PCS internal use only). Once the LEDs flash the ID, they will only display one yellow LED. This configuration will remain until AC is
detected and a charge cycle is in progress.
2.
There is also a possibility the LEDs will not flash their ID code and only show a yellow LED.
3.
Lastly, the LEDs may not flash their ID code and may not show any LEDs until AC is detected.
If the AC line and neutral wires are reversed, the unit will wait 2 minutes before starting a charge. NOTE: The 2 minute wait period will also be a
factor if the charger is being powered by anything other than normal grid AC such as a conventional generator, inverter, etc.
If AC is disconnected during while charging, the unit will turn off as expected. The user may hear some clicking noise, but should not be alarmed.
This is the Powered by Battery/DOE functionality checking for AC connection.
30% RED LED BLINKING ..................................................................NO BATTERY DETECTED
This indication occurs whenever the charger circuitry cannot detect a battery. The charger circuitry will not allow charge current
to flow under this condition. With the AC power supply cord unplugged, check the connection to the batteries for proper polarity
(black wire to negative or -). Also check for corrosion free secure connections to the battery.
