To access expert mode and expand the advanced settings menu, enter the advanced setting menu and enable the ‘Expert mode’
switch.
The additional settings in the advanced menu with expert mode enabled include:
a. Charge voltage
i. BatterySafe
The BatterySafe setting allows the BatterySafe voltage control to be enabled or disabled. When BatterySafe is enabled,
the rate of battery voltage increase during bulk stage is automatically restricted to a safe level. In cases where the battery
voltage would otherwise increase at a faster rate, the charge current is consequently reduced to prevent excessive
gassing.
b. Bulk
i. Bulk time limit
The bulk time limit setting restricts the maximum time the charger can spend in bulk stage as a protection measure, since
the absorption voltage should have been achieved by this time. If the bulk time limit is satisfied the charger will move
directly to float stage.
ii. Re-bulk current
The re-bulk current setting is the charge current limit that will trigger a new charge cycle if exceeded during float or
storage stage, causing the charger to move back into bulk charge stage.
Note that even when the re-bulk setting is disabled, re-bulk will still occur if the charge current is maintained at the maximum
charge current for 4 seconds.
c. Absorption
i. Adaptive absorption time
The adaptive absorption time setting allows selection between adaptive absorption time (if enabled) or a fixed absorption
time (if disabled).
ii. Absorption time
The adaptive absorption time setting enables the maximum adaptive absorption time or the fixed absorption time to be
configured (depending if adaptive absorption time is enabled or disabled).
iii. Repeated absorption
The repeated absorption time setting enables the elapsed time between each automatic refresh charge cycle (1h in
absorption stage) to be configured.
d. Recondition
i. Recondition stop mode
The recondition stop mode setting allows selection between the recondition stage being ended upon the battery voltage
reaching the recondition stage voltage setpoint or a fixed time period.
ii. Recondition duration
The recondition time setting enables the maximum recondition time or the fixed recondition time to be configured
(depending on the recondition stop mode selected).
