Charge Profile Configuration
Battery Capacity
Without BBWC:
this adjusts the battery AH capacity used by the charger to determine start and finish
rates, and should match the AH capacity of the battery being charged.
With BBWC:
the battery AH capacity will be automatically transmitted from the BBWC.
When running in ionic:
In ionic with Auto Capacity is enabled, the value is not used and it automatically
calculates the Ah capacity of the battery. If using ionic and Auto Capacity is disabled the charger will use this for
the Ah capacity of the battery.
Auto Capacity
Select either Disable or Enable. Only used for ionic. All other profiles are manual all the time and will either
use the battery Ah programmed into Battery Capacity or the value the charger reads from the BBWC. When
enabled in ionic the charger will automatically adjust to battery Ah sizes within the range it covers. (depending
on number of modules installed)
Battery Temperature
This parameter adjusts the regulation voltages on the charging profile (values between 5° and 149° F (
–15°
and 65° C)
.
Without BBWC:
defines the average operating battery temperature before the charge. It is recommended
the average electrolyte temperature be entered, especially in cold areas.
With BBWC:
the battery operating temperature will be automatically transmitted from the BBWC. The
battery temperature will be analyzed during the charge; if it increases too much, the charger will stop to prevent
any possible damage.
High Battery Temperature
Defines a battery temperature safety limit.
Without BBWC:
not used.
With BBWC:
If the battery temperature, during the charge, reaches the programmed limit, the charger will
stop the charge cycle and wait until the temperature decreases.
Restart Temperature
Without BBWC:
not used.
With BBWC:
Defines the temperature at which the charge will restart, if the programmed limit is reached, and
the charge stops.
