The display appears in standard mode.
The display shows the charger paramet-
ers:
- Type of battery (e.g. wet)
- Charging characteristic (e.g. IUI)
- Nominal voltage (e.g. 48 V)
- Capacity (e.g. 300 Ah)
- Day of the week, date and time
The charger parameters can be set individually. More information on the charger para-

During the charging process the display shows the following values:
- Current charging current (A)
- Current charging voltage (V)
- The charge already input (Ah)
- Battery temperature with the "temperature-controlled charging" option
- The time (hh:mm) since charging started
