SYNCHRONIZING YOUR LINK 2000
TO A CHARGED BATTERY
A charged battery has zero Ahrs removed. Synchronizing your LINK 2000 to read
zero when the battery is charged ensures that you always know the net number of amp hours
removed. The charged parameters on the previous page indicate when a charging system
has put as much energy into a battery as it normally can and the battery can be considered
charged.
Your LINK 2000 must be synchronized at this point!
TWO WAYS TO SYNCHRONIZE
There are two ways to synchronize your LINK 2000 to a battery that has met the
charged parameters:
1) Install the LINK 2000 on a charged battery and it will
automatically be in sync.
2) If the LINK 2000 is installed on a partially charged battery, simply charge until
the charged parameters are met. The LINK 2000 will begin counting up and will display
charging amp hours as positive. When the battery is charged, turn off the charging source.
After discharging begins the LINK 2000
automatically resets to zero, starts counting down,
and is in sync.
If the LINK 2000 should ever get out of sync with the battery state of charge
it must be re-synchronized. The best way to do this is to be sure the battery is
discharged at least 10% of the declared battery capacity and then recharge until
the charged parameters are met. At this point the meter should
automatically reset
to zero.
Remember, a battery should be fully charged, and float charged if possible, when
leaving it for extended periods of time for best battery life. This will automatically ensure
that the Link 2000 stays in sync. Some things that will cause the Link 2000 to not stay in
sync are: 1) discharge cycle is less than 10% of battery capacity, 2) battery not fully charged
to 100%, 3) charged voltage set too high for the charging system, 4) charged current % of
battery capacity set too low for the charging system, 5) battery is never charged long enough
for 100% charge.
MANUALLY RESETTING AMP HOURS TO ZERO
If you want to manually reset your LINK 2000 amp hours display to zero:
1) First select the battery you wish to reset.
2) Press the SETUP button for five seconds. When the LED begins flashing,
release the button.
3) Press and hold the RESET A hrs button for three seconds (until the normal
display returns) to reset the amp hours of the selected battery to zero.
