4. SETTINGS
Settings may only be changed by a qualified engineer
Carefully read the instructions before changes are made.
Batteries should be placed in a dry and well-ventilated area during charging.

The optimal absorption voltage for flat plate lead acid batteries is subject to mechanical and
chemical properties.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.
