USER'S MANUAL
v.170 January 2011
1. START to CHARGING
1 – Connect the battery to the charger, the display shows:

BATTERY
CONNECTED

22.6 V FL 500 Ah
EL= 12 PROG.1

if the operator doesn't touch button every 15 secs the display shows:

Prss ENTER->to PROG

PrssUP&DOWN->toCharg

this means that if the operator press for 2 secs ENTER, the operator can change the value

22.6 V FL 500 Ah
EL= 12 PROG.1

The cursor lamps, at the value that the operator can change.
FL – battery type
500 Ah – amperehour of the battery
EL=12 – Number of elements
PROG.1 – Specific curve of charging.

The operator uses button UP and DOWN to change these values, for example the operator
knows that there are 11 elements.

22.6 V FL 500 Ah
EL= 11 PROG.1

And the operator can change the specific program charging curve .

22.6 V FL 500 Ah
EL= 11 PROG.2

Pag.1
2 – Create new curve
Unplug the battery, or Turn OFF and Turn ON the charger without the battery connected. The
display shows, the start up cycle or

DISCONNECTED

SYSTEM READY
MODEL / DATETIME ..

The operator press button DOWN few secs and he insert a password UP_DW_UP_DW_UP

EDIT PASSWORD

MOD. USER

In this menu the operator can turn with button UP and DOWN,

If the operator want to change a existent curve or create a new curve.

See PROGRAM EXAMPLES page 14 in specific .

Pag.2
2. SETTING CURVE
MENU PRG N. 1 – 8 (1-20 OPTIONAL) : PROGRAM SETTING CURVES

For each program, it's possible set at maximum 6 different STEP, and for each step it's possible
set the TYPE of STEP (current constant, voltage constant, pause cooling), MAXIMUM TIME of
the single STEP (0-65350 minute), CURRENT (constant current or minimum limit current ),
VOLTAGE (maximum voltage or holding voltage).

For each program, the display shows this setup page:

for example:
PRG N.XX
SETTING

Press ENTER to modify this particular program:

1.A I=K T= 240m
I=18%Ah V=2.40 V

PROGRAM and STEP INDICATOR-settings

1.A – 1(nr. of program [1..8..20]) A (step of the program [A.B.C.D.E.F])
f.e 2.C (program nr.2 and step C (third))
f.e 5.B (program nr.5 and step B (second))

TYPE of CHARGING CURVES (Programmable values)

I=K – [I=K] current constant
[V=K] voltage constant
[PAU] pause/cooling

MAXIMUM TIME of the SINGLE STEP (Programmable values)

T= 240m [DIS,5,..,65350] - 240minutes after this time the charger close the actual step and will
begin the next step.

CURRENT SETTING/LIMIT (Programmable values)

I=18%Ah [DIS,1,..,99] – for every 100 Ah of the battery capacity the charger put 18 Amps.
If you have a battery of 500 Ah –> 18%Ah = 18 * 5 = 90 Ampere
If you have a battery of 750 Ah –> 25%Ah = 25 * 7.5 = 187.5 Ampere
If you have a battery of 1100 Ah –> 10%Ah = 10 *11 = 110 Ampere
In TYPE of CHARGING CURVES → (I=K) I value is the current costant during this step
In TYPE of CHARGING CURVES → (V=K) I value is the minimum limit of current before to end
this step of program.

VOLTAGE SETTING/LIMIT (Programmable values)

V=2.40 [DIS,2.20,..,2.80] V/Cell – limit voltage for single elements.
In TYPE of CHARGING CURVES → (I=K) V value is the maximum limit of battery voltage
before to end this step of program.
In TYPE of CHARGING CURVES → (V=K) V value, the charger compensation the current to
hold voltage value.

It's possible to scroll between each programs using the buttons UP/DOWN, and press ENTER
to modify or skip each single parameter.
