Pressing the Dead Battery Override will turn charger back on for instance if using charger to Crank Assist.
7.
Charging time will depend on the size and state of charge of the battery.
8.
When charging is complete, charger will go into a float mode and the GREEN light will blink.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: CHARGING
22.
●
SLOW BLINKING RED LIGHT - Indicates possible weak battery.
●
FAST BLINKING RED LIGHT – Before charge this indicates battery is connected backwards, check connection.
●
CONTINUOUS RED LIGHT - Indicates power transformer is powered up.
●
CONTINUOUS GREEN LIGHT - Indicates correct connection. If when battery is connected, the green light does not light, check for
proper polarity or poor connections. If the battery voltage is below 10 volts the green light will not come on press an hold the DBO.
●
BLINKING GREEN LIGHT - Indicates charge is complete, charger in the float mode.
●
CONTINUOUS YELLOW LIGHT - Indicates charging, bulk charge, less than 80% charged.
●
BLINKING YELLOW LIGHT - Indicates finish charge, greater than 80% charged.
●
FLASHING GREEN AND YELLOW LIGHTS - Flooded batteries only. Indicates deep discharge recovery process. Pressing DBO will take
out
NOTES: FOUR SECOND DELAY
To avoid sparking, the charger tests for correct polarity before applying current to the battery. When connected properly, the green light will
come on for 4 seconds before the yellow light comes on.
DEEP DISCHARGE RECOVERY
If the charger determines a battery is deeply discharged, it will attempt to recover the battery with a program designed to enhance charge
acceptance. Because of the high voltage levels required for recovery, this program is not included for sealed batteries.
NOTES ON RECOVERY OF DEEPLY DISCHARGED BATTERIES:
a.
Not all deeply discharged batteries can be recovered.
b.
Most weak batteries will be detected while charging. However, some batteries which have been recovered from a deep discharge will
maintain an acceptable open circuit voltage but have a reduced capacity under load. Always load test or otherwise test a recovered
battery to determine if the CCA capacity is within 80% of the rated value.
DEAD BATTERY OVERRIDE
If the battery voltage is below 10V the battery charger will not recognize that it has been connected to a battery. Most batteries even if
completely discharged will recover to a voltage greater than 10V, but if a battery is left in a discharged state for an extended period of time the
voltage may fall below 10V. This charger has been equipped with a Dead Battery Override switch; this can be used to start the charger if the
battery voltage is below 10V. The DBO will also turn charger back on if the charger has faulted.
OPERATION:
a.
Connect the deeply discharged battery to charger, battery should be placed as far away from the charger as the cables will allow. (See
Section 18). Please insure that the battery is connected with the correct polarity.
b.
Press and hold the override switch; green LED should light, if monitoring the battery voltage should see it rise.
c.
After 5 to 10 seconds release the override switch, if the battery will accept a charge it should now start charging. For best results the
Battery Type switch should be set for flooded. If the battery is a sealed type; the Battery Type switch can be changed after the battery has
reached the gassing point (Yellow Led starts to flash).
d.
The battery may have to be connected to the charger several times before the charger will not fail the battery as a bad battery (Red Led
Flashing). NOTE: The operator should only need to press the override for the first attempt to recover the battery.
. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: CLEAN POWER SUPPLY
23
GENERAL OPERATION:
1.
With AC cord plugged into an outlet the RED light will be on continuously.
2.
For best results the battery should be fully charged before being used with the Electrical Stability System
3.
Set the selector switch to the 13.9V Clean Power Supply (center).
4.
Connect the RED clamp to the battery positive (+), connect the black clamp to the grounded frame of the vehicle (see Sec-17 on charging
batteries installed in a vehicle), in the unusual case that the vehicle has a positive ground, connect the black clamp to the battery negative
post (-) and the red clamp to the chassis.
5.
When the charger detects the battery, voltage is present the GREEN light will light for 4 seconds. The YELLOW light will then come on
and the unit will start to ramp up the DC current. When the charger reaches the safe operating level, the YELLOW light will start to blink.
6.
The unit will not shut off, it will maintain the voltage within its capabilities until the unit is turned off.
7.
If the voltage should fall below the specified level the YELLOW light will return to continuously on. If the unit cannot maintain the voltage
level for more than 20 seconds, then the RED light will start to flash. At this point the unit is supplying maximum output and the battery
voltage should be monitored to make sure it does not drop below minimum levels required for testing and/or programming.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: MEMORY SAVER
24.
1.
Plug AC cord into outlet.
2.
Set charger to the charge setting; do not operate on crank when using Memory Saver. Do not charge a battery when operating the
Memory Saver.
3.
Press for one second the Dead Battery Override switch (DBO) this will turn on the power transformer and the Red Led will come the main
control board.
4.
Turn Memory Saver on/off switch to on.
4.
The on and Fault LED will light, after a few seconds the fault LED will turn off. Now the output voltage is in the correct range and the
Memory Saver is ready to use. Do not place a load on the Memory Saver until the Fault LED turns off.
6.
Connect the cord to the memory saver receptacle verify fault LED is not on then connect the other end of the cord to the vehicle.
