Charge Control or Diversion Control Indications (Green)
The flashing rate of the LED indicates the controller’s stage of operation and approximate battery voltage.
•One to four flashes indicates the controller is in the Bulk stage. As the flashing rate increases, the batteries are progressively closer to the Bulk voltage. Table
•Five flashes indicates the controller has reached Bulk voltage and is in the Absorption stage.
•Solid green means the controller is in the Float stage and is regulated at the Float voltage.
