Charging curve selection (if display is present)
Depending on the duration of the pressure of the MODE button, you can perform different actions:
1. Long pressure (at least 1 second): during battery charger setting, it means ENTER
2. Short pressure (less than 1 second): during battery charger setting, it means ROLL.
Setting:
1. Turn on the charger while pressing the MODE button.
2. ROLL: select the CAN Node number. Choose a value according to the following specification:
CB Firmware (*):
•
Choose a value between 1 and 125. 126 is a forbidden value that forces the charger to enter the charging curve selection
procedure
•
Node 10 corresponds to a MASTER unit charger (connected with one or more SLAVE units).
•
Nodes from 1 to 9 identify the ID of the SLAVE (used together with a MASTER).
•
Nodes from 11 to 125 identify a STAND-ALONE charger (used as a single unit).
All other firmware versions (*):
•
Node 10 corresponds to a MASTER unit charger (connected with one or more SLAVE units).
•
Nodes from 1 to 8 identify the ID of the SLAVE (used together with a MASTER).
•
Node 9 identifies a STAND-ALONE charger (used as a single unit).
3. ENTER: CAN Node confirmation. Battery type selection begins.
4. ROLL: Battery type selection.
Choose BA1 for Lead-Acid batteries, Choose BA2 for Gel electrolyte batteries.
5. ENTER: Battery type confirmation. Curve selection begins.
6. ROLL: Curve selection.
The charger offers a total of five different charging curves. The available selections are listed below:
a. CU1: IUIa curve plus equalization and maintenance
b. CU2: IU1U2ob curve
c. CU3: power supply curve
d. CU4: User programmable curve
e. CU5: Desulphation curve
7. ENTER: Curve selection confirmation. Capacity selection begins.
8. ROLL: Capacity selection.
The starting point for the capacity selection is the nominal value, but you can select a value included between 50% and 140% of
the nominal one in steps of 10%.
9. ENTER: Capacity confirmation. Recharging time selection begins.
10. ROLL: Recharging time selection.
Starting from a suggested Recharging time (according to the capacity chosen at the previous step) this time, expressed in hours,
can only be increased up to 20 hours max.
11. ENTER: Recharging time confirmation. In the CB firmware (*), Seasonal thermal compensation selection begins; in all other
firmware versions (*) skip to step 14.
12. ROLL: Seasonal thermal compensation selection (CB firmware (*) only).
The charger offers a total of three different seasonal thermal compensations, which add or subtract a fixed amount to the output
voltage during charging phase 1 and 2. Please note that the Seasonal thermal compensation will only take place if the thermal
compensation through the external probe is not enabled. The available selections are listed below:
a. Std: Standard compensation; no additional compensations are calculated. This means that if the thermal
compensation through external probe is enabled, the charger will perform the usual correction algorithm (example, 5
mV/(cell °K)), otherwise no correction at all will be performed.
b. Hot: Hot season compensation; -40 mV/cell correction
c. CoL: Cold season compensation; +100 mV/cell correction
13. ENTER: Seasonal thermal compensation confirmation.
14. The battery charger goes into stand-by mode until output cables are connected to battery binding-clamps (if connections have
already been done before starting the setting, once arrived at point 14, charge immediately starts).
Warning: if some trouble or mistake occurred during the setting procedure, switch off the battery charger though the rotary ON-OFF
switch, then switch on again by keeping pressed the MODE button and restart the procedure from the beginning.
(*) Note: the firmware version can be determined from the product code. For example, G9ITCB-07GRXX
(**) Note: Curve selection takes place before Battery type in CB firmware
Charge delay selection and usage (if display is present – CB firmware only)
To enter a delay between the connection of the battery and the actual begging of the charge:
1. Hold a long pressure pressure on the MODE button during the standby state (battery unplugged, the display shows three dots).
The display shows "dLY".
2. ROLL: selection of the Charge Delay, expressed in hours and tens of minute (e.g.: "1.3h" indicates a one hour and thirty
minutes delay).
3. ENTER: Charge Delay confirmation.
Each time a battery is connected, the charger will show a blinking message indicating the hours and tens of minute to the beginning of
the charge (in the "-h.m" format, where h stands for hours and m stands for tens of minutes).
It is also possible to skip the delay and immediately start the charge by holding a long pressure on the MODE button during the
execution of the delay.
In case of disconnection of the battery during the execution of the delay, the charger will go back to the standby state.
