About Link 1000 Settings

Charged Parameters
There are two charged parameters: Charged Voltage and
Charged Current Percentage (%). During a charging cycle,
when the battery voltage exceeds the Charged Voltage
parameter and the charging current has dropped below the
Charged Current parameter, the battery is considered to be
fully charged. At this point the Link 1000 resets its state-of-
charge to fully charged (which appears as 0 Ah on the
display).
Changing the Charged Voltage Setting
If your system uses 12 or 24 Volt batteries:
You don’t need
to change the default Charged Voltage setting. On power up,
the Link 1000 automatically selects an appropriate Charged
Voltage for 12 or 24 volt liquid cells and gel cells. (If you
have gel cell batteries, see
“Changing the Battery Type
Setting” on page 23
.)
If your system does not use 12 or 24 Volt batteries:
You must
set an appropriate Charged Voltage. Use a value of 2.2 volts
per cell at normal temperatures for liquid cell batteries.
To change the Charged Voltage setting:
1. Press and hold
SET
until
SEL
appears.
2. Press
SEL
once. The
LED comes on and
13.2
appears (or
26.4
if you are using a 24 volt battery).
3. Hold down
SET
until the voltage you want is displayed.
(The display moves up in 0.1 volt steps. Once the display
reaches
50.0 volts,
it then rolls over and starts
counting up from 8.0 volts.)
Changing the Charged Current Percentage Setting
If your system’s charging current does not fall below 2% of
battery capacity at the end of the charging cycle (that is, when
the battery should be full), you will need to change the
Charged Current Percentage setting. (A fully charged battery
is indicated when the green LED flashes on the
BATTERY
STATUS
light bar.)
