IV. LOCAL BATTERY CHARGE CONDITION INDICATOR
This indicator shows the charge condition of each battery in 10 levels from “LOW CHARGE” to
“FULLY CHARGED”. This device indicates a defective battery when a bar graph does not rise to
the “FULLY CHARGED” level after an extended period of charging.
NOTE: If a battery is being charged with an external load of 4 to 10 amperes across, the bar graph
may move down 1 or 2 levels. This does not indicate a defective battery.
VI. BATTERY SELECTOR SWITCH
Used to select between Lead-Acid or AGM batteries. The selector switch is factory set to Lead-Acid.
