Intended Use; Important; Charging Batteries In Vehicles With Can Bus System - ProCharger XL Instrucciones De Uso

Intended use

Intended use
Using the charger as intended comprises charging and
maintaining the charge of conventional lead/acid batteries
and all maintenance-free, gel and AGM batteries for which
the voltage and charging current stated in the technical
specifications are appropriate. In addition, there is a special
charging mode for LiPo and Li-ion starter batteries. Any other
type of use is deemed to be not as intended, and the user/
operator alone is responsible for any resulting damage. It is
essential to follow the instructions of the battery manufacturer.
Using the charger in any way other than as described above
can damage the charger and give rise to other risks such as a
short-circuit, fire, electric shock etc.

Charging batteries in vehicles with CAN bus system

CAN bus (Controller Area Network) is a bus system developed
by Bosch specifically for interconnecting the electronics in
vehicles. It enables all of the intelligent systems in the vehicle
to communicate with each other and exchange information.
Such a system is integrated in the new BMW motorcycles.
In this case, the vehicle socket is controlled by the main
processor via the CAN bus.
The CAN bus enabled ProCharger XL supplies high-impedance
voltage pulses to the vehicle socket. The motorcycle's processor
detects the connected charger and enables the charging socket
if required (depending on the charge level in the battery).
The ProCharger XL does not deliver any harmful voltage pulses
to the engine electronics in order to check the CAN bus vehicle
socket, which means that other electrical equipment, such as
GPS sat navs, can be permanently connected.
