Batteries with high antimony content can typically be charged with a lower absorption voltage
than batteries with low antimony content. (Please refer to our book “Electricity on Board”
downloadable from our website www.victronenergy.com for details and suggestions about
charging batteries). Contact your battery supplier for the correct charge voltages and change
(with VE-configure) the voltage settings if required.
The default charge current setting is 75% of the maximum charge current. This current will
be too high for most applications.
For most battery types the optimal charge current is 0.1-0.2x the battery capacity.
ds5: Inverter frequency off = 60Hz on = 50Hz
ds6: Search Mode off = off on = on
ds7: AC input current limit off = 30 Amp on = 50 Amp
Store the settings by moving Dip switch 8 to “on” and back to “off”.
