Y. 11796 TEL: in NY 631-567-0314 TOLL FREE: 800-346-0857 FAX: 631-567-5826 INTRODUCTION The AUTO CHARGE 1200 is a compact, completely automatic, single channel battery charger designed for vehicles with a single battery system. [. . . ] During this brief interval the Auto Charge 1200 measures and stores the battery voltage. This battery voltage is compared to a standard and any error is detected and used to control the charger output at the desired level. Their is no "trickle charge" and therefore no danger of overcharging and water boil-off. Automatic Current Limiting When batteries are severely discharged, some battery chargers can be overloaded due to the high charging current required. The Auto Charge 1200 contains an automatic current limit. This circuit limits the output current to the rated 40 amperes when charging a deeply discharged battery or if the starter cranks the engine while charging. The current limiter thus eliminates the need for an ignition interlock circuit. Battery Charge Condition Indicator This indicator shows the charge condition of the battery in 10 levels from "LOW CHARGE" to "FULLY CHARGED". This device indicates a defective battery when a bar graph does not rise to the "FULLY CHARGED" level after an extended period of charging. NOTE: If a battery is being charged with an external load of 4 to 10 amperes across it's terminals, the bar graph may move down 1 or 2 levels. This does not indicate a defective battery.
