“DIP SWITCHES
The red and white dip switch module is on the upper right end of the charger. This is a
bank of 8 switches and they are numbered starting with #1 on the far right.
NOTICE! Adjusting these switches can cause the charger to perform in an undesirable
manner. Please be sure you understand these switch features before changing them.
Dip Switch Guide:
1. Engages timer at peak voltage limit set point. This switch should be ON.
2. Starts timer as soon as the charger is turned on. This can be used for timed
charging. This switch should be OFF.
3. Starts timer when the reg bus commands. This switch should be ON.
4. Reg bus latch disable. As soon as a reg trips it will start the timer and the
charger will back down until timeout. This should be ON.
5. Low battery detection on specially equipped chargers. This switch should be
OFF.
6. AGM battery equalization. When using Mk2 series battery regulators, this will
allow the batteries to climb to a slightly higher voltage for equalization at the
end of charge. It also commands the yellow LEDs on each reg to turn on.
This switch should be OFF.
7. As soon as the high voltage limit is set the charger goes off. This should be
OFF.
8. Auto restart function. This allows the charger to restart charging when the
battery pack reaches a certain set low voltage point. This switch should be
OFF unless using the auto restart feature.
NOTE: Dip switch #6 can be useful if you have battery regulators because you can
momentarily switch it on and the yellow lights on all the regs should come on. If any
don’t, you can use this feature to narrow down which reg(s) are not communicating with
the charger. This feature does not work with the LT-5 Lithium regulators.
Wiring your Manzanita Micro Charger
Your PFC-20, 30 or 40 charger has two main power cables coming out of the front of
the case. The top cable is for the incoming power (usually AC from a wall outlet) and
the lower cable is the charger’s DC output.
