F02

Voltage charged parameter. The battery voltage must be

above this voltage level to consider the battery as fully

charged. Make sure the voltage charged parameter is

always slightly below the voltage at which the charger

finishes charging the battery (usually 0.1 V or 0.2 V below

the “float” stage voltage of the charger).

F03

Current charged parameter. When the charge current

value is below this percentage of the battery capacity (see

F01), the battery can be considered as fully charged.

Make sure the current charged parameter is always

greater than the minimum current at which the charger

maintains the battery, or stops charging.

F04

Charged parameter time. This is the time the charged

parameters (as described in F02 and F03) must be met in

order to consider the battery as fully charged.

F05

Low-battery alarm ON (discharge floor). When the state-

of-charge percentage has fallen below this value, the

alarm relay will be activated and the CHARGE BATTERY

indication will flash on the display to indicate the battery

must be charged. The time-to-go calculation and the

state-of-charge bar graph are also linked to this value. It

is recommended to keep this value at or around 50.0%.
