Updating charger firmware

The Charge Control Software automatically checks for new firmware each time it is launched

(assuming the computer is connected to the Internet). If new firmware is available, it is down-

loaded to your computer. When you are ready to update the charger:
1. Be sure the charger is connected to the computer, and is powered up.
2. Disconnect all packs from the charger.
3. In the Charge Control Software window, click the Firmware tab.
4. Select the firmware you want to download.
5. Click Update Firmware.
6. Wait—and do nothing to the PC, charger and interconnection—until updating is complete.

IMPORTANT: During firmware downloading, do not disconnect the charger from

power, do not disconnect the charger from the computer, and do not exit the Charge

Control Software.

Errors tab; you will be taken to the
