ProSportHD LED Display and Charge Monitor
The ProSportHD Charger includes 6 LEDs for operation status, up to 3 battery bank trouble LEDs
depending on model and a battery gauge Charge Monitor.
Blue AC Power LED
Power Indicator Illuminates when AC power is present.
System Check OK (Green LED):
If all tests pass, the System Check OK indicator will illuminate
green, providing positive confirmation your charger is installed
properly and your batteries are capable of being charged
followed by the charging process.
Completion Status Monitor
The Charge Monitor has 4 green LEDs and 1 dual color
green/red LED. When the batteries are low, the first LED
bar illuminates. During the Charge process the first
Completion Status LED will transition to green. As the
charging process progresses, the other Completion Status
LEDs will turn on until all 5 LEDs are on and the batteries
are fully charged.
This feature provides at-a-glance charge status so you can
see the charge level of the lowest battery.
Dual Mode Battery Status
Depending on the model, up to 3 LEDs can illuminate red
indicating a wiring problem or fault with any of the individual
battery(s) connected to the charger, including batteries that
are under 2.5 VDC that should be tested by your local
battery dealer before trying to charge them. See page 27
for further details.
As each bank completes its charge cycle, the dual mode
status indicator will illuminate green to let you know the
corresponding bank has completed its charge cycle.
Note: These will be off during charge and conditioning
Distributed-on-Demand™ vs. Traditional Charging Output
ProSportHD's Distributed-On-Demand
™
feature will automatically distribute 100% of its
available charging amps of 8, 10, 12, 15 or 20 amps (model specific) to any one battery
or combination of all batteries. This feature ensures all available charging amps are used,
unlike other 2 and 3 bank on-board chargers with a fixed amp limit per charger bank /
DC output cable. See below for the Distributed-On-Demand
versus leading fixed amp per bank chargers.

Charging Technology
ProSportHD's Distributed-On-Demand
™
Charging
Technology ensures 100% of the available charging
amps are fully utilized to meet the demand of each
battery on-board. For example, if your engine start
battery only needs 2 amps from your ProSportHD
12 (6/6) 2 bank charger; the unused 4 amps will
™
be automatically Distributed-On-Demand
provide a total of 10 amps to the trolling motor
battery versus only 5 amps that the conventional
5/5 charger would provide.
Typical Leading Competitive Charging
Leading Competitor's Charging Technology
Competitive chargers have an amp limitation per
bank. As illustrated the (5/5) 10 amp charger
cannot transfer the unused 3 amps not required
by the engine start battery, leaving only a maximum
of 5 amps for the trolling motor battery.
Note: Above illustration reflects typical battery usage after a day of fishing. Trolling motor
batteries are 50% discharged and not usable. Engine start battery is 90% charged from the
engine charging system.
