VOLTCRAFT Charge Manager 420 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 45

The desired programme is selected with the selection buttons "<" or ">". Five different
programmes are available.
"SET CHARGE"
"SET DISCHARGE"
"SET CHECK"
"SET CYCLE"
"SET ALIVE"
• "CHA" ("CHARGE") means that the inserted battery is being charged.
• "DIS" ("DISCHARGE") means that the inserted battery will only be discharged. There is
no maintenance charge.
• "CHK" ("CHECK") means that a charge follows the discharge.
• "CYC" ("CYCLE") means that the inserted battery will be first charged, then discharged
and finally recharged.
• "ALV" ("ALIVE") means that the battery must go through several charge and discharge
cycles. The "ALIVE" programme is used for activating new batteries and batteries that
were stored for an extended period of time.
Depending on the selected programme, the charge or discharge current must be selected:
Charge current input
SLOT1 PROG CHA
SET I-CHA 2000mA
Use the arrow buttons to select first the charge current and then the discharge current.
This is also either assumed by the button "OK" or automatically after five seconds.
If no input is made, the "Charge Manager 420" automatically sets the charge current to
500 mA and the discharge current to 250 mA.
