If the SIDE BARS (only)flash, AND other icons are lit and not flashing,
this indicates the battery has requested to be fully charged and
discharged in order to update its “learned capacity”. This “learning”
should typically occur during normal equipment operation. However, if
the battery has not been fully charged and discharged for some time, this
indication will appear.
To remove the flashing SIDE BARS, fully charge the battery (STEADY
GREEN indication) on the InterActive 2000 charger. Then either:
(a) Discharge the battery on a camera in normal operation continuing
to keep the camera “hot” until it shuts down. Then return the
battery to the charger. When the battery is full remove it from the
charger.
(b) This can be done automatically with an InterActive2000
PowerCharger with a DDM (Diagnostic Discharge Module
installed. This unique feature is called “AUTOCAL” and is
included as standard on QUAD 2702 and DUAL 2722
PowerChargers. (Please reference the appropriate PowerCharger
Owner’s Manual.)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The flashing SIDE BARS indication is not a
warning indication. The battery will operate perfectly normal while
awaiting a “learning” cycle. Rather than relying on an “assumed”
capacity, as with some imitation fuel gauges, the DIGITAL PROPAC
and DIGITAL TRIMPAC batteries rely on the Digital Battery
electronics to update capacity information as the battery sees different
operating conditions and ages normally. The flashing bars are merely an
indication that the battery has not updated this information for some time
and is requesting a confirmation of its “learned” capacity.
