3.4. Power supply mode
The charger can be set to operate as a DC power supply.
In this mode, the charger functions as a constant voltage source:
1. an adjustable output voltage of 8.0 to 15.9 V (12 V type) resp. 16.0 to 31.8 Volt (24 V type)
2. a maximum output current of 60A (12 V type) resp. 30A (24 V type).
3.5. Temperature compensation (dV/dT)
The temperature sensor should be connected to the plus or negative pole of the battery.
The temperature compensation is a fixed setting, see table and fig. 4, and applies to all charge states.
