CHARGER SETUP

22.
The charger has several parameters that can be set to enhance the
chargers operation or the user experience. To enter this set-up
menu PRESS and HOLD the ENTER button (about 5 seconds). The
display will show the menu of items that maybe changed:
•
LCD CONTRAST: Used to optimize the contrast on the display for
optimum viewing.
•
USE BUZZER: Used to turn the buzzer on and off.
•
LANGUAGE: Used to select the language to be used in the display.
•
PARAMETER LOCK: Used to lock all the settings for the various
battery types.
•
VOLTS AT BAT: Voltage Drop; this used to calibrate cable/clamp
voltage drop. Should only need to be done if a large discrepancy
between the display voltage and actual battery voltage exists. To
use: Select while connected to a battery (unit will turn on in the mid-
range current). Place a calibrated meter on the battery terminals.
Use the arrow buttons to adjust the display voltage to match the
meter on the battery. When they match press SELECT.
•
JUMP CON MOHMS: Used to determine voltage drop for line drop
calculations.
•
MANUAL TEST: Used to test the unit in production.
•
AMP OUTPUT: Used to calibrate the current reading.
GENERAL CHARGING PARAMETER SETUP
23.
The BWC6008 charger is setup for maximum versatility. All charging
parameters start at factory default. Once a parameter is changed
then it will remain changed at the setting until it is changed again.
Parameters have limits depending on the battery type. All changes
should be done with great care to ensure not damaging the battery.
To change a parameter, press and hold the ON/OFF button. Use the
UP/DOWN arrow buttons to place the carrot (arrow) on the parame-
ter to change. Press SELECT, and carrot will start to flush. Now use
the arrow buttons to change the parameter to the desired values
within limits allowed. Once the parameter is set press the select
button to lock that value in memory.
BATTERY TYPE: Use this to select the battery type that needs to be
charged. When charger powers up it defaults to AGM, if the battery
type is unknown the AGM is usually a safe charge to use. To
change parameters for a battery or mode, then that item must first be
selected, then all parameters for the item will change to match what
they are set for. Not all parameters are needed for every battery
type.
MAXIMUM CURRENT: Limits current output of the charger. Can be
used to limit heating of the battery. Some batteries have limits on
maximum current for charging.
HOLD VOLTAGE: Depending on the battery type this could be maxi-
mum voltage the battery is charged at or it may be gassing point
where the current is reduced to charge the battery for maximum
charge efficiency.
RUN TIME: This would be the maximum charge time allowed for
charging the battery.
SAFETY VOLTAGE: If this voltage is reached and cannot be re-
duced charge is terminated.
FINISH CURRENT: Depending on the battery type, this current is the
current the charge is terminated on or the current used to finish the
charge.
TIME POST GASSING: This is the maximum time allowed after
reaching the hold voltage.
FINISH TYPES:
•
NONE: When charge is done, it just turns off.
•
PULSE/TIME: After charge is complete, charge remains OFF until
the selected time is reached then charger will turn back on termi-
nating again the hold voltage is reached.

PULSE/VOLTS: After the charge is complete the charger will
remain off until the battery voltage drops to the selected float volt-
age then charger will turn on and charge until it reaches the hold
voltage.
FLOAT: After the charge is complete allow the battery voltage to
fall back until reaches the float voltage then it will hold at float
voltage until the battery is removed.
