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.

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.
