Immediately following connection to a battery there may be a 1-2
STEP 2
second delay before charging progresses, during which time:
Battery State Of Charge is measured to determine charge requirement
and duration of the State Of Health test in STEP 9. A low battery will be
tested for 12 hours.
The battery SAVE mode engages if the battery is less than 50% charged

IMPORTANT: Read the section VERY FLAT NEGLECTED BATTERIES on

A very flat battery should progress to STEP 6 within 4 hours, unless

damage has been detected, then charging will be suspended and TEST

permanent damage or a professional assessment is required.
A deep discharged battery may not hold sufficient voltage to power its
own BMS system. The charger will attempt to automatically reset the
BMS during SAVE mode and continue charging. If charging did not
continue, use the MANUAL RESET: place and hold finger on BMS reset
button for 10 or more seconds, until the program continues to STEP 4.
VERY LOW VOLTAGE SAVE : Current starts at 125mA and will increase
STEP 3
to 325mA depending on charge progress. If the voltage did not rise
above 8.8V within 2 hours, charging will be suspended and the TEST

LED #8 (red) will flash, indicating the battery may have suffered

permanent damage or a professional assessment is required.
LOW VOLTAGE SAVE :

Maximum current is set to 1.25A. The battery's charge acceptance is
monitored for unusual behaviour.

The ampmatic™ CHARGE program automatically determines
the most efficient rate of charge current for the connected battery,
according to its state of charge, state of health, and electrical storage
(Ah) capacity. The delivered current may be anywhere from 1.25A to
2.8A. For batteries with an electrical storage (Ah) capacity less than
10Ah charge current is automatically adjusted lower to an average
equal to battery Ah capacity, e.g. a 2.5Ah / 2500mAh battery receive an
24-7 24-7
average of 2.5 Amps.

NOTE: For safety reasons there is an overall charge time limit of 24
hours up to STEP 6.
This final charge mode starts when the voltage has reached 14.4V for
the first time during STEP 6.
The ampmatic™ current control program now delivers pulses of
current to equalise the individual cells within the battery and optimizes
charge level.
Minimum charge time is influenced by initial State Of Charge as
measured during STEP 2, varying between 10 minutes for a battery with
80% or higher state of charge to the maximum of 120 minutes for a
4
battery with 40% or less.
