The FLEXnet DC’s LEDs indicate the SOC by their individual ON/OFF states. Excluding the RED or last LED, when viewing the remaining four LEDs—GREEN, YELLOW, YELLOW, AND YELLOW— the following are true:

• All LEDs on = 90-100% SOC

GREEN LED blinking—charge parameters met

Solid GREEN LED—SOC is above 90%

All but top LED on = 80-89% SOC

All but top two LEDs on = 70-79% SOC

Bottom yellow LED on = 60-69% SOC

When viewing the last (RED) LED:

Bottom RED LED on = 50-59% SOC

Bottom LED blinking = less than 50% SOC

NOTE: The bottom LED is always off unless the SOC is less than 60%

5.When the SOC is less than 90%, enough of a discharge has taken place that the FLEXnet DC’s data can be used to determine, among other things, an accurate Battery Charge Factor. A battery amp- hour charge factor* and the battery kWhr efficiency factor** for the last cycle are calculated using the stored values from the previous charge cycle (if the SOC is higher than 90%, the values aren’t reliable enough for these calculations). The battery must cycle at least twice for these values to be valid.

*Battery amp-hour charge factor = amp-hours removed/amp-hours charged ** Battery kWh efficiency factor= kWhs removed/kWhs charged
