the over-voltage condition is remedied ultimately reducing the voltage to a user defined
charging voltage.
Equalization Voltage—equalization voltage is a corrective over-charge of the battery.
The user should consult their battery manufacturer regarding specific battery equalization
capacity. This parameter sets the equalization voltage to set the battery at when it reaches
the equalization state.
Boost Voltage—users should check with their battery manufacturer for proper charging
parameters. In this stage, users set the boost voltage where the battery will reach a
voltage level and remain there until the battery undergoes an absorption stage
Float Voltage—once the charge controller recognizes the set float voltage, it will
commence floating. The battery is supposed to be fully charged in his state, and the
charge current is reduced to maintain battery stability levels.
Boost Return Voltage—if at any point, the battery voltage levels registers to be below
the boost return voltage for an extended period amount of time, then the charge controller
will commence the boost stage once again.
Low Voltage Reconnect—this parameter allows loads connected to the system will be
able to operate (not fully) again.
Under-voltage Recover—deals with the loads connected to the system. When batteries
are determined to be low due to them approaching low voltage disconnect, then the loads
will be shut off to give the batteries time to recover. This parameter sets the controller to
shut off the loads until it can reach the low voltage reconnect stage.
Under-voltage Warning—this parameter deals with the batteries themselves
approaching the under-voltage recovery state. The user should minimize loads before the
charge controller approaches a level where it will do this automatically to protect the
battery from discharging
