Rebulk Voltage (Advanced Menu)
In the Float stage, if the battery voltage falls below the ReBulk Voltage set point for at least
90 seconds, the FLEXmax will automatically initiate a new charge cycle.

Vbatt Calibration (Advanced Menu)
A quality, calibrated voltmeter will provide even more accurate FLEXmax battery readings if an
undesirable voltage drop occurs. When measuring battery voltage, ensure a good connection is
made to the four wire lugs. Check the battery temperature compensation voltages if the
voltages are much different than expected from the charger setup Absorbing and Float
voltage settings.
Figure 43 Vbatt Calibration
RTS Compensation (Advanced Menu)
The RTS Compensation screen allows the user to control the Absorbing and Float voltage
limits during charging when using a Remote Temperature Sensor (RTS). The RTS adjusts
charging voltage depending on battery temperature. (See page 99 for the amount of
compensation per degree.) However, some conditions can make compensation less than
optimal, such as extreme weather (hot or cold), or charging restrictions from the battery
manufacturer. Therefore, the RTS Compensation screen allows the user to control the limits
used by the compensation feature.
