Parallel Series
REPROGRAMMING:
Disconnect the charger from the batteries, and unplug the power
cord. Remove the sheet metal screws holding the cover on.
Select the switch configuration that most closely matches your
application. Whether choosing maintenance mode, or shut off is a
personal preference, however the maintenance mode assures
batteries will remain charged and won’t self discharge.
IMPORTANT: Use switch numbers as a guide, as some boards
may be upside down, and reversed.
When batteries are connected in
Parallel the battery amp hour
capacity is additive and the
voltage remains the same.
Example: two 180 amp hour
12 volt batteries would equal
12 volts and 360 amp hour capacity When batteries are connected in
Series the voltage is additive and
the battery amp hour
capacity remains the same.
Example: two 180 amp hour
12 volt batteries would equal
24 volts and 180 amp hour capacity
