Most Limiting (#B1 & #B2 Up, factory setting):
charger output falls gradually from full output at no 230V load passing through to no output at full load.
Less Limiting (#B1 Down & #B2 Up):
33% of the Inverter/Charger’s load rating to about 33% of full output at full load.
Least Limiting (#B1 Up & #B2 Down):
66% of the Inverter/Charger’s load rating to about 66% of full output at full load.
No Limiting (#B1 & #B2 Down): No |

certain types of batteries; consult with your battery’s manufac- turer to determine if your batteries could benefit from this process. The charge equalization process is automatic; once started, it can only be stopped by removing the input power.
Setting Procedure
•Move to “Equalize” (DOWN) position for three seconds.
•Move to “Reset” (UP) position and leave it there. This is the factory default setting.
CAUTION: Do not leave DIP switch #3 in the down position after beginning process. Battery charge equalization should only be performed in strict accordance with the battery manufacturer’s instructions and specifications.

B4 Set Battery Charging
Check specifications for your unit’s high-
and
charge at maximum speed. When setting on low charging, you lengthen the life of
your batteries (especially smaller ones).
Battery Charger | Switch Position |
Low Charge Amps | Up (factory setting) |
High Charge Amps | Down |
CAUTION: When switching to the High Charge Amp setting, the user must ensure that the amp hour capacity of their battery system exceeds the amperage of the High Charge Amp setting or the batteries may be damaged or degraded.
Set Battery Charge Conserver (Load Sense)
In order to save battery power, the unit's inverter automatically shuts off in the absence of any power demand from connected equipment or appliances (the electrical load). When the Inverter/Charger detects a load, it automatical-
ly turns its inverter function on. Users may choose the minimum load the Inverter/Charger will detect by adjusting the Battery Charge Conserver Control (see diagram). Using a small tool, turn the control clockwise to lower the
minimum load that will be detected, causing the inverter to turn on for smaller loads. When the control is turned
fully clockwise, the inverter will operate even when there is no load. Turn the control counterclockwise to increase the minimum load that will be detected, causing the inverter to stay off until the new minimum load is reached.
NOTE: The factory setting for the control is fully clockwise. However, based on the threshold load to which you’d like the inverter to respond, you should adjust the control counterclockwise to reduce its sensitivity until the inverter is active only when connected equipment or appliances are actually in use.
