LED үзүүлэлтүүд

LED үзүүлэлтУтга
Green (Test)Battery is undergoing initial testing or voltage retention test.
Red (Save)Battery is deeply discharged and undergoing recovery.
Yellow (Charge)Battery is actively charging.
Green (Maintain)Battery is fully charged and in maintenance mode.
Red/Yellow/Green (Test/Maintain)Indicates battery health during maintenance. Green is excellent, Yellow is good, Red indicates a weaker battery.
Reverse Polarity / FaultIndicates incorrect connection or a severe battery fault.
