SECTION 5 | Battery Charging in Evolution™ Series
EXAMPLE BASED ON TABLE 5.2.1
Assume that 4-Stage Charging Prole for Equalization was switched on when 3-Stage Adaptive Charging Prole option
“0= 3 Stage Type 0” was active [Column (1), Table 5.2.1]. In this Charging Prole, the last i.e. the 3rd Stage is FLOAT
[Column (2), Table 5.2.1]. After completing the 3
rd
Stage of Equalization, the 4
th
Stage will, therefore, be FLOAT [Column
(3), Table 5.2.1]. The 2
nd
line display “0-Float Stage” [Column (3), Table 5.2.1] indicates:
• “0” for the parameter CHARGING PROFILE set at Option "0=3 Stage Type 0"
• “Float Stage” indicates the last FLOAT Stage of 3-Stage Adaptive CHARGING PROFILE Option "0=3 Stage Type 0"
5.8.3 Automatic Resetting of 4-Stage Adaptive Charging Prole
The 4-Stage Adaptive Charging Prole explained at Section 5.8.2 above will be reset to the First Stage i.e. the Bulk Stage
[Section 5.8.2.1] as follows:
a) If the AC input fails and is restored or, it is disconnected and is reconnected
b) If battery discharges and its voltage falls to the voltage level set by programming parameter "RESET TO
BULK" [For details, refer to Section 4.4.2.15 of EVO-RC-PLUS Remote Control Manual.
Programming range for this parameter is:
i. 10 to 13VDC for EVO-1212F / EVO-1212F-HW (Default value is 12.0VDC)
ii. 20 to 26VDC for EVO-1224F / EVO-1224F-HW (Default value is 24.0VDC)
c) If the charger remains in the Float Stage for 10 days
5.9 SWITCHING ON AND SWITCHING OFF PROCEDURE FOR 4-STAGE ADAPTIVE CHARGING
PROFILE FOR EQUALIZATION
The default charging prole is "3-Stage Type 0" i.e. 3-Stage Adaptive [Refer to (i) Srl. No 1, Table 5.2 and (ii) Section
4.4.2.21 in the EVO-RC-PLUS Remote Control Manual. 4-Stage Adaptive Charging Prole for Equalization is required to
be activated manually as follows:
• Initiating 4-Stage Adaptive Charging Prole for Equalization using ON/OFF Push Button (11, Fig 2.1) on
the Front Panel (only if the Remote Control EVO-RC-PLUS is not connected to the EVO Inverter Charger
or, is not available): When the unit is in Charging Mode (qualied AC Input is available), the Blue LED marked
“ON” (12, Fig 2.1) will be blinking once in 1 sec interval. Press the ON/OFF Button (11, Fig 2.1) for 1 second.
The ongoing Charge Prole will be terminated and Adaptive Equalization will be initiated. The Blue LED marked
“ON” (12, Fig 2.1) will start blinking twice in 1 sec interval to show that the 4-Stage Adaptive Charging Prole for
Equalization is active. The unit will complete Equalization and terminate in the last stage of the charging prole that
was active at the time the Equalization Prole was activated (Section 5.8.2.4). Henceforth, charging will continue in
the initial charging prole that was active before equalization was initiated. At the same time, the Charging Prole
Setting will again be reset to the original and the Blue LED marked“ON” (12, Fig 2.1) will return to 1 blink in 1
sec interval. To terminate Equalization Prole prematurely before its completion, press the ON/OFF Push
Button for 1 second.
