6.5.2 Charge Current Control (CCC)
Use Charge Current Control to limit the battery recharge current to the battery manufacturer’s specified
maximum value. The Battery Properties section (6.5.7) must be completed to enable the Charge Current
Control feature.
Enable Activiates the Charge Current Control (CCC) feature.
Charge Rate Limit Amount of current that goes into the battery, which is dependent upon
parameter Capacity Rating (C) – see 6.5.7. The Charge Rate amount is
represented in amps (X) or as a C/X value (Capacity Rating/Charge Rate
Amps).
The Charge Rate Amps is recalculated if the Charge Rate C/X value or the
Capacity Rating is modified.
Enable Dynamic CCC A separate set of Charge Rate Limit values can be input for the Dynamic CCC
feature.
Battery Properties
(LCD only) The Battery Properties button at the bottom of the window links to the Battery
