process. The following parameters are available for programming the battery 

charger: 
• Charger On/Off 

• Select Max current for charging (from 0.1A to 1.5A step 0.05A) 

• Cycling Time (1 second off charging every cycling time) 

• Auto (best charge considering temperature) 

Standby:

 Programs the timeout for the gate operator to go into low power 

standby mode. Low power standby is Settings from 5 to 120 seconds, or
