LED Status Center - Normal Operation & Display
The ProSport Series includes four (4) LEDs as shown:
1. Top LED is Battery Type: Red for standard Flooded (Lead-acid)/AGM,
Amber for AGM HP (High Performance) and Green for GEL
2. Ready LED: Illuminates Green
3. Charging LED: Illuminates Red
4. Bottom Power LED: Illuminates Blue
LED Status Center Operation after Applying AC Power to Discharged Batteries
(Example below is for the factory setting of Flooded (Lead-acid) batteries).
All LEDs will self test, followed by:
The Blue AC Power LED will illuminate followed by the Red Charging LED and
Red Battery Type LED (Factory Setting for standard Flooded (Lead-acid)/AGM
Batteries). The combination of these three LEDs turning on indicates ProSport
has started its Sequential Multi-Stage Charging process.
When the Sequential Multi-Stage Charge Process is completed you will observe the following:
Battery Type Red LED goes OFF
Charging Red LED goes OFF
Ready Green LED turns ON
The only LEDs on after the Sequential Multi-Stage Charge process is completed
are the Blue AC Power LED and the Green Ready LED
LED Status Center Operation after Applying AC Power to Fully Charged Batteries
The Blue AC Power LED will illuminate followed by the Green Ready Indicator turning ON
For this application, the following LEDs are in the OFF state.
Battery Type (factory set) Red LED Turns OFF
Charging Red LED Turns OFF.
The only LEDs on, if the charger is maintaining fully charged batteries, are the Blue
AC power LED and the Green Ready LED.

General Operation
Install your ProSport On-Board Marine Battery Charger to the guidelines in this manual.
Make sure your charger and batteries are properly vented. Connect your extension cord
with no AC Power present to the ProSport and proceed to plug your extension cord in at a
nearby 120 VAC GFCI protected (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt) outlet.
With your ProSport plugged in properly, it will automatically / fully charge your batteries
while it conditions and extends the life of your batteries. When you’re not at home, always
leave your charger plugged in to reduce sulfate build-up allowing your batteries to be
fully charged and maintained for your next fishing trip.
For long term or winter storage/ maintenance of batteries, ProMariner recommends that
every 30 days: AC Power is removed by unplugging your extension cord at the GFCI outlet
first, check battery electrolyte levels. Re-apply AC power to your ProSport Charger. This
practice will properly maintain your batteries resulting in extended battery life and use.

Multi-Stage Charging Output
Competitive chargers have an amp
limitation per bank. As illustrated the
(5/5) 10 amp charger can not transfer
the unused 3 amps not required by
the engine start battery, leaving only
a maximum of 5 amps for the trolling
motor battery.

Charging Versus Standard Chargers.
ProSport's "Distributed-On-Demand
™
" feature will automatically distribute 100% of its
available charging amps to any one battery or combination of all batteries. This feature
ensures all available charging amps are used, unlike other 2 and 3 bank On-Board Chargers
with a fixed amp limit per charger bank / DC output cable.

Technology Advantage versus Leading Fixed Amp per
Bank Chargers*
Note: Above illustration reflects typical battery usage after a day of fishing.
Trolling motor batteries are 50% discharged and not usable. Engine start battery
is 90% charged from the engine charging system.

Charging Technology ensures 100% of
the available charging amps are fully
utilized to meet the demand of each
battery on-board. Let’s say your engine
start battery only needs 2 amps from
your “ProSport 12” (6/6) 2 bank charger;
No problem. The unused 4 amps will
be automatically Distributed-On-

to battery bank #1 providing
a total of 10 amps to the trolling motor
battery versus only 5 amps that the
conventional 5/5 charger would
provide. The competitive 5/5 charger
