CHARGER SETUP
This screen allows changes to the MX60’s recharging voltage set points (Current Limit,
Absorb, Float):
The presently selected numerical value will have an asterisk “ * ” to the left of it.
Pressing selects the value to be changed.
You may need to re-enter the password to change these settings.
The default charger output current limit setting is 60 amps and is adjustable up to 70 amps. At
70 amps, a 70A or 80A breaker must be used between the battery and the MX60.
Change Absorb and Float set points using this screen if the battery manufacturers recommen-
dations are di erent than the default values. Otherwise, see page 79 for suggested recharging
voltage set points.
If a battery remote temperature sensor (RTS) is used, its compensated voltage values can be
viewed in the MISCELLANEOUS (Misc) screen under the Tmp Comp heading.
Please Note: If an RTS is used, set the ABSORB
and FLOAT setting voltage based on a 25°C / 77°F
setting. These are typically the manufacturers set
points (always consult the battery manufacturers
recommendations). If an RTS is not in use, please
see the Non-Battery Temperature Compensated
System values (page 85) and adjust the ABSORB/
FLOAT values accordingly.
