start the charging process. There is however a second condition that must be met before the
charger starts the charging process and this is the input voltage level. The input battery voltage
must be above a certain level in order to allow the output battery to be charged. Additionally,
this condition must also be met for a preset amount of time. Please see the table below
showing all factory default voltage and time delay values that are stored inside the Elogic
DC charger:

As can be seen in the above table, there are two low input voltage turn off levels. The ‘slow’ off
level is allowed to be exceeded for a longer time than the ‘fast’ off level. This results in a stable
charge process while still avoiding a too deeply discharged input battery.
CAUTION
If the main On/Off control input is connected to the ignition- instead of an engine running
signal, while the turn off input voltage levels are set to relatively low values, please make sure
to start the engine in a timely manner to avoid discharging the starter battery too much.
3.3
Charger operation without using the main On/Off control input
When there is no engine run signal available or when the charger must always remain
activated, DIP switch 4 must be set to ON. In this mode however, the input voltage
requirements as shown in the table of chapter 3.2 still applies. So the charger will only start
charging when these requirements are met.
CAUTION
Please be aware that in this always on mode, the charger will continue to draw a small
current (< 35mA) from the input battery, even when the turn on input voltage condition
has not been met. This could result in a discharged input battery if allowed for an extended
amount of time.
