Installation
Figure 6: Close and latch case while holding it in position.
1. The pump leads are polarity sensitive; connect the posi-
tive pump lead to the terminal labeled 'Pump +' and the
negative pump lead to the terminal labeled 'Pump –'.
NOTICE If the leads are reversed, the pump will run
backward and not pump water.
2. The vertical float switch leads are not polarity sensi-
tive; connect the float switch leads to the 'Float
Switch' tabs on the Charger/Controller. If you are
using two batteries, use the second set of terminals
and connect the second battery in the same manner.
Connect the positive (+) battery lead (red) to the
positive Charger/Controller terminal (red). Connect
the negative (–) battery lead (black) to the negative
terminal (black) on the Charger/Controller.
3. Test the float switch and the pump by lifting and
holding the float rod. The 'Pump Status' LED will
light continuously and the buzzer will beep steadily.
The pump should start after 3 seconds. If the pump
does not run, check all the connections and remake
them as necessary.
4. With the pump operating, press the 'Silence Alarm'
button; hold for one second; release. The 'Silenced
Alarm' LED should illuminate and the buzzer should
stop sounding. To reset the buzzer (make it sound)
and extinguish the 'Silenced Alarm' LED, press the
'Silence Alarm' button again for one second.
5A. To stop the pump, lower the float switch; after 3
seconds the pump should stop, the 'Pump Status'
LED should flash, and the buzzer should beep.
5B. Depress the 'System Test' button; hold it for one second;
release. The 'Pump Status' LED should stop flashing.
NOTICE During normal operation, the flashing
'Pump Status' LED indicates that the pump has run
in your absence. See Table II, "Operating Code
Displays", Page 9.
6. Press and hold 'System Test' button. All LEDs will
light up, pump will run and buzzer will sound.
For parts or assistance, call Simer Customer Service at
Release the button and LEDs should go off, pump
should stop, buzzer should stop.
7. The 'Battery Status' LED indicates the battery
capacity when the AC power is off.
A. Continuously 'ON" - the battery voltage is
B. Slow Beep/Slow LED Flash - the battery's
C. Fast Beep/Fast LED Flash - the battery is severely
When the first warning occurs (slow beep/slow

flash), you will have approximately 2 hours (or less)
of pump operation left. The actual time of operation
will depend on the condition of the battery and may
be as little as 15 minutes.
8. Connect the Power Supply cable (supplied) to the
Charger/Controller's Power Input jack.
LED Display and Control Buttons (tables II, III, IV, and V)
NOTICE When the unit is first plugged in, or when it first
receives power from the battery, the Battery Status LED
will flash for 3 seconds.
NOTICE To activate any Control Button, depress and
hold for 1 second.
Possible remedies
1. Wrong Battery Voltage
Reconnect charger to a 12 volt battery.
2. reversed Battery Connections
Check all connections. The negative (black) on the
battery must connect to the negative (black) on
the charger, and the positive on the battery must
connect to the positive on the charger. Reversing the
battery connections will cause the 'System Alert' and
'Silenced Audible Alarm' LEDs to flash.
3. thermal runaway Condition
"Thermal Runaway" is the technical term for the
condition of the battery when some (or all) of the
cells have deteriorated to the point that they won't
take a charge. In this case, replace the battery.
4. Charge time monitor – 1 and 2
Battery took too long to complete its charge. The
'Charge Time Monitor' will shut down the charger
after 84 hours of continuous charging.
Possible causes are:
A) Pump ran for a long period of time during
B) Battery is too large for the charger (including

or not your battery is too large for the charger. If the
calculated charging time is more than 84 hours, use
