Recondition Battery
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
Some controllers have NiMHi batteries which need to be reconditioned
approximately every six months to maintain reliability. This reconditioning
cycle requires a full discharge and recharge of the battery. It ensures that the
battery’s capacity is being measured correctly and that the battery’s full
holdover time is maintained. For more information, see RAID Controller
Batteries.

Delay
This property displays the maximum number of days and
hours that you can delay the battery learn cycle. The
controller firmware automatically initiates the battery learn
cycle. You cannot stop or pause the Learn cycle, but you
can delay it. For more information, see Battery Delay Learn
Cycle and Start Learn Cycle.

battery has been recharged.
Max Recharge Count This property displays the maximum number of times the
