BATTERY CHARGED, MAINTAIN ONLY: If the battery is sufficiently charged, LED #4 will immediately light together with LED #1
(flashing).
BATTERY NEEDS CHARGE: If the battery needs further charging LED #2 or 3 will light together with LED #1 (flashing).
When the solar panel stops delivering power (sun has gone down in the evening or cloud covers sun) the OptiMate Solar controller
changes to BATTERY MONITOR mode and will continue to indicate battery condition every 3 seconds.
MULTI-STEP CHARGE MODE: The OptiMate Solar controller automatically alternates between pulse and continuous current mode
to always deliver the most efficient and fastest charge. The selected method of current delivery depends on
1) Condition of the battery – PULSE : Pulse mode is more effective in saving a battery.
2) Power delivered by solar panel –
a. PULSE: when the power is low (weak sun / cloud cover) pulses of effective charge current is delivered. Current pulses of 3
– 5 Amps may be delivered, at minimum every 2 seconds.
b. CONTINUOUS: when the power received from the panel is sufficient the controller delivers continuous charge current to the
battery during the BULK CHARGE mode (LED #3).
NOTES:
1.
Choosing the right size of solar panel: 12V solar panels are rated according to the maximum output it is able to deliver in direct
and full sunlight to a fixed 12V load. Maximum power is rarely achieved; output can drop below 20% in indirect sunlight (e.g.
cloud cover).
For effective long-term battery maintenance choose a panel that will deliver sufficient current to overcome the parasitic draw of
the vehicle circuitry (such as alarm, clock, engine control unit) and return charge lost overnight. Typical parasitic drain: 10-20mA
for a motorcycle / power sport vehicle and 30-50mA for a car or pick-up truck fitted with a 12V battery.
2.
Speed up recovery of a neglected battery – Use an OptiMate 3, 4, 5 or 6 that connects directly to AC power to recover the
battery. Find the appropriate OptiMate charger at www.optimate1.com
3.
Test a battery – Find the appropriate OptiMate tester at www.optimate1.com
4.
The OptiMate SOLAR will maintain a battery whose basic condition is good, for months at a time. At least once every two weeks,
check that the connections between the charger and battery are secure, and, in the case of batteries with filler caps on each cell,
disconnect the battery from the charger, check the level of the electrolyte and if necessary, top up the cells (with distilled water,
NOT acid), then reconnect. When handling batteries or in their vicinity, always take care to observe the SAFETY WARNINGS
contained in this manual.
