CUSTOM BATTERY TYPE SETTING

(for expert use

only - not required for general operation)

Before  proceeding  with  this,  please  read  and
understand all instructions as it is quite complex and
could  take  more  than  one  attempt. There  are  timed
intervals  of  30  seconds  per  setting  so  it  is  very
important  to  know  exactly  what  you  require  before
starting.  If  any  errors  are  made  simply  wait  a  few
minutes  and  you  can  start  the  cycle  again.  The
settings offered for adjustment in sequence:

Important information:

If during these operations

you get yourself in a mess and find yourself pushing
buttons aimlessly, then please resort to the factory
reset. To delete all and return the product to its default
factory settings.

Boost / absorption voltage (high voltage charge).

Conditioning voltage (medium charge rate

normally between boost and float voltage).

Float voltage (no longer charging, this will provide

voltage at a reduced level to maintain the batteries
and provide power for any loads applied).

Absorption time factor adjust. The length of time

spent in absorption can be adjusted by a factor 0-18.
This  may  be  beneficial  for  different  battery
chemistries. Gel, for example, tends to absorb current
at a low rate, thus, increasing the length of time spent
in absorption may be beneficial (set nearer 18). AGM,
the reverse (set nearer 0). If in any doubt, ask your
battery retailer or simply use one of our preset values.
To calculate the absorption time from the time factor
simply multiply the factor number (0-18) by the length
of  time  it  takes  for  the  charging  voltage  to  hit  the
absorption  voltage  (typically  14.4V).  If  it  takes  40
minutes to reach absorption and you set your ATF to 4
then 4x40mins = 160 minutes. The maximum time the
unit can stay in absorption is 24 hours 1440 minutes.

Minimum and maximum absorption times.

Here you can set the maximum and minimum time the
unit stays in absorption. For example, you may have
AGM that may need a maximum of one hour, or GEL
which could require a minimum of 720 minutes (12
hours).
We recommend that you write down your required
voltages and times in the space below. This is so you
know what to programme during setup.

) to select the correct time. Once content,

wait 30 seconds, or press both buttons to confirm. The
unit shall then proceed to minimum absorption time
factor (next below).

Why use Absorption Time Factor (ATF)?

ATF is simply a number (0-18) that can be used to
multiply by the length of time the charger takes to
reach the absorption voltage from start. For example,

if the absorption voltage is reached in 10 minutes with
the ATF at 4, then 10mins x (ATF 4) = 40 mins of
absorption.
