bAtt

:   Battery status and voltage. When the batteries are fi rst connected, the system will display this item, if no faults are present.

good

:  Batteries are charged.

chAr

:   Batteries require charging. This indicates that the batteries are not at full charge, but the battery is still healthy.

Lo

:  

Batteries have very low voltage. The batteries are not recharging enough or may be faulty. This can affect proper operation.

bAd

:   Battery needs replacing. The batteries can not retain a charge or have been depleted beyond recovery.

00.00

:  Battery voltage, displayed in volts. Normal battery voltage should be above 12.0 V.

LEd

:   LED fl asher fault alert. This alert only appears if there is a problem with the LED fl asher(s). Disconnect the batteries, correct the 

issue, then reconnect the batteries.

SHrt

:   LED fl asher is shorted. Correct the short to return to normal operation.

oPEn

:  LED fl asher has an open circuit. Check the LED wiring, correct the problem to return to normal operation.

SoLr

:   Solar sensor status.

nItE

:   Solar sensor is not detecting light (nighttime). This can be simulated by covering the ambient light sensor on top of the engine.

dAY

:   Solar sensor is detecting light (daytime).

00.00

:  Solar panel voltage. This voltage can range depending on the current solar conditions.
