BALANCE
The charger maintains a current equal to 32% of the maximum output that is
activated by voltage, on at 2.15VPC and off at 2.35VPC with a time limit of 2 hour if
2.35VPC is not reached.
When current is flowing, amps will be displayed and the yellow LED will be
illuminated. When no current is flowing, the display will show ‘StSt’. The FUNCTION
button can select charge information. The green LED will remain illuminated.

1.70 VPC, down to a minimum of 1.00 VPC - the level at which the charger will
recognize a battery connection. This is achieved by holding the FUNCTION
push button for 5 seconds when the incorrect battery fault has been detected.
11.8.2 OPERATION
If ‘Low Battery Override’ has been enabled and a battery (voltage > 1.00 VPC)
is connected to the charger, the charger will pass current at 75% of maximum
current output the charger rated output current level.
