charge, the same slide switch can be set in ON position. In case of doubt leave the setting in OFF position.

This will allow an equalizing cycle (higher end of charge voltage) during the next charge process. Since then equalizing will occur every 25 usual cycles.

3.6.1Connection to battery 3.6.1.1 On the appliance side

Mount the supplied glands on the battery cable before the setting of the cable terminal. Set the cable terminal and mount the glands on the appliance. Repeat the process for the second battery cable.

Connect the red cable (+) on the “+ Battery” appliance

connection point according to the plan below.

Connect the black cable (-) on the “- Battery” appliance

connection point according to the plan above.

The supplied fuse (except with the HPC 2800-12) must be mounted according to the plan below.

3.6.1.2 On the battery side

Caution: before connecting the battery, check carefully the voltage and the battery polarity with a voltmeter. A polarity reverse will seriously damage the inverter (for example: connecting a HPC 2800-12 to a 48V-Battery).

Get the batteries ready for connection: suitable terminals, fuse on one of the connection points, cable in good shape with, if necessary, terminals rightly set. Mount the red cable on the positive (+) pole, and the black cable on the negative (-) pole of the battery.

While connecting the second cable, a spark due to the charge of the capacities at the input stage is normal. In the same time an acoustic signal tells that the control processor has started. All LED’s of the synoptic light during a short time, then the synoptic shows that the appliance has stopped. The LED “OFF” (13) must be turned on.

After the battery connection, the battery state-of-charge LED shows a 100% capacity during 1 to 2 minutes, the necessary time for the processor to compute again the current state-of-charge of the battery.

If the LED “Battery Low/High” (12) is lighting, the battery voltage is too low. If it is blinking, the battery voltage is too high. Caution: a battery voltage too high or inappropriate can seriously damage the HP-COMPACT. For instance the connection of a 24 V battery with the HP-COMPACT 2800-12.

If by mistake the HP-COMPACT has been wrongly been connected (reverse battery polarity) it is likely that the internal protection fuse has melted and has to be replaced. In that case it is necessary to disconnect all connections to the HP-COMPACT,
