Setup and Operation

Programming

SELECTING BATTERY TYPE
To select a battery type/charging profile perform the following:

1. Press and hold the SETUP/ENTER button for 5 seconds.
2. The current battery type and Voltage/Amperage displays will flash.
3. Use the

and

keys to select desired battery type.

4. The Volts and Amps readout will display the charge/conditioning and ready

voltages for each profile highlighted.

5. Press the SETUP/ENTER button to confirm selection, the LED will remain solid.

ADJUSTING THE CUSTOM BATTERY TYPE SELECTION
NOTE: *Damage can result from improper use of the custom setting. Any damage experienced while
using this setting is the responsibility of the user and not covered by the Professional Mariner warranty.
ALWAYS consult the battery manufacturer if you are unsure of the battery chemistry.

1. Follow above steps and select the “Custom” option
2. The Volts and Amps will display 13.6 (default at 13.6V)
3. The “Charge/Conditioning” LED will be blinking, indicating it can be changed
4. Use the

and

to select voltage up to 15.1.

5. Press the SETUP/ENTER button to confirm selection, the “Charge/Conditioning”

LED should be solid, the “Auto Maintain” LED should now be flashing

6. Use the

and

to select voltage up to 15.1.

7. Press the SETUP/ENTER button to confirm selection, the LED will remain solid

NOTE: During this process, real-time voltage and amperages will not be displayed.
SELF TEST MODE

1. Press and hold the SETUP/ENTER and the

and

buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds.

2. Only the “Self Test” LED will flash until the test is complete.
3. OK or Fault LED’s will be displayed, see the Troubleshooting section

if the Fault LED is illuminated.

this type of battery is selected.

1. Use the

and

to select the Equalization LED.

2. Once selected press the

and

for 3 seconds.

3. The LED will remain solid, putting the unit in the equalization setting for 240 minutes.
4. Once complete, the charger will revert back to the previous setting.

POWER LEVEL ADJUSTMENT

1. Hold the

and

buttons simultaneously for 15 seconds

2. Volts will display “PL” for Power Level
3. Press the

to adjust the amperage display from 100, 75, 50, 25% output.

4. Press the SETUP/ENTER button to confirm selection.

NOTE: If no action is taken after 15 seconds, the unit reverts to 100% power.
FACTORY RESET
To return the unit to original factory settings (Sealed 2)

1. Follow steps 1 and 2 in the Selecting Battery Type section
2. Use the

and

keys until no battery type or equalization LED’s are illuminated.

Check List

Verify AC connections are correct (L, N, G) and secure
Verify DC connections (+,-) are correct and secure
Verify DC protective cover is installed
Connect shore/station power
Turn on main AC breaker
Turn on charger AC breaker
Verify LED’s indicators are correct (see Setup and Operation section)

Please fully read the set up and operation section of this manual to begin using your installed and configured
ProNauticP Series charger.

Verify shore power/station is connected and main AC breaker is in the ON position.
Apply power to your ProNauticP Series charger by switching on branch circuit power. The charger
will immediately come on with all LEDs lit while it performs a system check. Once complete the LED
display will indicate the default BC (Battery Charger) operation as it enters the charging mode, DC
voltage will increase.

Once the batteries have reached programmed voltage, the ProNauticP will automatically switch to
conditioning mode, then to Auto Maintain mode once programmed voltage/time is met, these states
will be indicated by the LED’s on the charger or the optional remote.
The Remote (if equipped) will display real-time voltage/amperage and state-of-charge information,
detailed programming and display information can be found in the operation section.
The ProNauticP requires no further attention. Once properly installed and programmed the ProNauticP
is designed for years of trouble free use with minimal attention. For periodic checks, see the
maintenance section.

Note: In the event you change the battery chemistry please refer to the setup and operation section of this
manual to reconfigure your charger.

Setup

NOTE: Factory Default charging profile is Sealed 2 (13.6 VDC Conditioning, 13.2-13.6 VDC Auto Maintain)
BATTERY TYPES - A word on battery types and the ProMariner ProNauticP. As noted in the Battery Selection
Table in the FEATURES section of this manual, this unit can handle 7 different types of commonly available
batteries. Batteries are a consumable component and will, at some point, require replacement. Different
batteries are charged with dramatically different charging profiles. A change in battery type upon replacement
will require resetting of the battery type on the ProNauticP Charger. Identifying the battery type (available
on the battery or by contacting the battery manufacturer) and setting the ProNauticP Charger accordingly

LED indicators on the charger are as follows:
