Configuration

Charger Type	Choose one of the three charger types listed below. For information about multi-
	stage charging, see Application Note: Battery Banks for Inverter Systems (976-
	0114-01-01).
	p	3-step
		The PROsine will perform the Bulk, Absorption/Overcharge, and Float steps
	p	2-step
		The PROsine will only perform the Bulk, Absorption/Overcharge, and
		Standby steps. Some battery manufacturers and users believe that batteries
		should not be Float charged.
	p	CVCC
		Constant Voltage Constant Current mode (also called “Constant Mode”). This
		mode is not intended as a standalone battery charger. It may be used as a
		power supply mode but still requires the presence of a battery in the system.
Charger Hi V	This is an offset voltage ranging from 1.0 to 4.0V. If the battery voltage exceeds
Warning Offset	the sum of the Maximum Voltage in the present charging stage and the Charge Hi
	V Warning Offset the PROsine will sound a warning. If there are other sources
	charging the battery this value can be increased from the default 1.0V value to

prevent nuisance warnings from the PROsine. High voltages can reduce the life of the batteries and pose a safety hazard; the charge high battery voltage warning is intended to warn of an unsafe condition.
