Page 6: Three Step Charge Algorithm
OPERATION THREE STEP CHARGE ALGORITHM 2.4.1 Temperature compensated charging By installing the battery temperature sensor the charge See Figure 4. Battery charging is accomplished in three voltages automatically adapted deviating automatic stages: BULK, ABSORPTION and FLOAT. temperatures. The first step of the three step charge system is the BULK phase, in which the output current of the charger is 100%, and the greater part of the capacity of the battery is rapidly charged. -

INSTALLATION INSTALLATION STEP BY STEP Fix the enclosure to the wall by fastening two screws at the lower side of the enclosure as well. Mark the position of the four mounting spots by using the mounting bracket. Then fix the mounting bracket to the wall. - Page 13 INSTALLATION If required, change DIP-settings. See section Mount the isolation caps of the DC terminals back into position 4.1 for adjustment. Mind the + and – markings! Use a small screw driver for adjustment of the DIP-switches. Attach the battery temperature sensor to the casing of battery bank 1.
