Single and Dual Profile Charging

3.2.1.

A charger may be connected to a battery module that is configured for either
a Single or Dual Profile operation. The charger behaviour depends on both
the module and charger configurations.

The charger must be APC Enabled to one of two types:

APC Enabled (Single Profile)

A charger set to APC Enabled (Single
Profile)
and connected to a battery
module will perform a single profile
charge.

Single Profile module:

Charges using the module’s single
Primary Profile

Dual Profile module:

Charges using the module’s Secondary
Profile, ignoring the Primary Profile.

APC Enabled (Dual Profile Capable)

A charger set to APC Enabled (Dual
Profile Capable)
and connected to a
battery module will perform as follows.

Single Profile module:

Charges using the module’s single
Primary Profile

Dual Profile module:

Charges first using the Primary Profile
followed by the Secondary Profile. The
Primary Profile must be correctly
configured to engage the secondary
profile.
