Software revision, power rating, and model number can be obtained from the Signature Display. When the LCD shows the main display screen, press the TEST button on the front panel.

Charging

As with all Anton/Bauer chargers, charging with an InterActive 2000 PowerCharger is fully automatic. Mount any applicable battery to any open Gold Mount position on the charger or charge expansion module and the PowerCharger will automatically determine the appropriate charge routine and execute it.

Applications

All PowerCharger models will charge any combination of Anton/Bauer Logic Series Gold Mount batteries including models: ProPac 13/14, Compac 13/14, Trimpac 13/14, Digital ProPac 13/14, Digital Compac 13/14, Digital Trimpac 13/14, InterActive 2000 HyTRON, and DIONIC batteries.

Each PowerCharger incorporates the exclusive Anton/Bauer InterActive communication between battery and charger, which allows the charger to identify any Anton/Bauer battery attached and determine the precise charge routine for that battery under the prevailing conditions.

When coupled with Anton/Bauer DIGITAL batteries, the PowerCharger has additional information supplied from the battery which includes:

serial number of the battery

the characteristics of the battery, including voltage, capacity and cell chemistry

date of manufacture

temperature of the battery

number of charge and discharge cycles the battery has experienced

amount of self-discharge the battery has experienced since last being charged

“learned” capacity of the battery

This information is communicated to the charger by the battery and is incorporated, through specialized programming and algorithms to optimize the charging of the DIGITAL battery.

NOTE: Due to the specialized communications between the charger and the battery, batteries without the Logic Series construction and communication capability (manufactured by Anton/Bauer before 1989 as well as so-called “rebuilds”) can not be charged with this PowerCharger. The InterActive communication of Logic Series batteries is the key which allows the PowerCharger to safely identify and address new style and chemistry batteries as they are developed. Moreover, this communication ensures that batteries contain the quality cells, workmanship and safety of genuine Anton/Bauer products. If non- Logic Series batteries are placed on the PowerCharger, a message will appear accompanied by alternating flashing red and green LED indicators. This indication means that the battery cannot communicate its identity to the PowerCharger and is not charging.
