About G1100. The NOCO Genius

some of the most innovative and advanced technology on the market, making each charge simple and easy. It is quite possibly the safest and most efcient charger you will ever use. The G1100 is designed for charging all types of 6V & 12V lead-acid and 12V lithium-ion batteries, including Wet (Flooded), Gel, MF (Maintenance-Free), CA (Calcium), EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery), AGM (Absorption Glass Mat), and LIB (Lithium Ion) batteries. It is suitable for charging battery capacities from 2 to 40 Amp-Hours and maintaining all battery sizes.

Mounting. The G1100 has two (2) external holes for

mounting. Mount the charger in a desired location with #6 self-drill screws. Make sure there are no obstructions behind the mounting surface. It is important to keep in mind the distance to the battery. The DC cable length from the charger, with either the battery clamp or eyelet terminal connectors, is approximately 75-inches (1,900mm). Allow for 12-inches (304mm) of slack between connections.

Charging Modes. The G1100 has ve (5) modes:

Standby, 12V NORM, 12V COLD/AGM, 6V NORM, and 12V LITHIUM. Some charge modes must be pressed and held for three (3) seconds to enter the mode. These “Press and Hold” modes are advanced charging modes that require your full attention before selecting. “Press and Hold” are indicated on the charger by a red line. It is important to understand the differences and purpose of each charge mode. Do not operate the charger until you conrm the appropriate charge mode for your battery. Below is a brief description:

Using 6V NORM. [Press & Hold]

Cortesía de www.bateriasdelitio.eu

6V NORM charge mode is designed for 6-volt lead-acid batteries only, like Wet Cell, Gel Cell, Enhanced Flooded, Maintenance-Free and Calcium batteries. Consult the battery manufacturer before using this mode.

CAUTION. THIS MODE IS FOR 6-VOLT LEAD-ACID BATTERIES ONLY.

Using 12V Lithium. [Press & Hold]

12V Lithium charge mode is designed for 12-volt lithium-ion batteries only, including lithium iron phosphate.

CAUTION. USE THIS MODE WITH CARE. THIS MODE IS FOR 12-VOLT LITHIUM BATTERIES ONLY. LITHIUMION BATTERIES ARE MADE AND CONSTRUCTED IN DIFFERENT WAYS AND SOME MAY OR MAY NOT CONTAIN A BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (BMS). CONSULT THE LITHIUM BATTERY MANUFACTURER BEFORE CHARGING AND ASK FOR RECOMMENDED CHARGING RATES AND VOLTAGES. SOME LITHIUMION BATTERIES MAY BE UNSTABLE AND UNSUITABLE FOR CHARGING. MAKE SURE YOU PURCHASE YOUR LITHIUM-ION BATTERY FROM A WELL-KNOWN AND REPUTABLE BRAND.

Connecting to the Battery.

Do not connect the AC power plug until all other connections are made. Identify the correct polarity of the battery terminals on the battery. The positive battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (POS,P,+). The negative battery terminal is typically marked by these letters or symbol (NEG,N,-). Do not make any connections to the carburetor, fuel lines, or thin, sheet metal parts. The below instructions are for a negative ground system (most common). If your vehicle is a positive ground system (very uncommon), follow the below instructions in reverse order.

1.) Connect the positive (red) battery clamp or eyelet

Cortesía de www.bateriasdelitio.eu

terminal connector to the positive (POS,P,+) battery terminal.

2.) Connect the negative (black) battery clamp or eyelet terminal connector to the negative (NEG,N,-) battery terminal or vehicle chassis.

3.) Connect the battery charger’s AC power plug into a suitable electrical outlet. Do not face the battery when making this connection.

4.) When disconnecting the battery charger, disconnect in the reverse sequence, removing the negative rst (or positive rst for positive ground systems).

Begin Charging.

1.) Verify the voltage and chemistry of the battery.

2.) Conrm that you have connected the battery clamps or eyelet terminal connectors properly and the AC power plug is plugged into an electrical outlet.

3.) The charger will begin in Standby mode, indicated by an orange LED. In Standby, the charger is not providing any power.

4.) Press the mode button to toggle to the appropriate charge mode (press and hold for three seconds to enter an advanced charge mode) for the voltage and chemistry of your battery.

5.) The mode LED will illuminate the selected charge mode and the Charge LEDs will illuminate (depending on the health of the battery) indicating the charging process has started.

6.) The charger can now be left connected to the battery at all times to provide maintenance charging.

Understanding Charge LEDs.

Cortesía de www.bateriasdelitio.eu

The charger has four (4) Charge LEDs - 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. These Charge LEDs indicate the connected battery(s) state-of-charge (SOC). See the explanation below:

LED Explanation

25%

Red LED

25% 50% 75% 100%

50%

Red LED

25% 50% 75% 100%

The 25% Charge LED will slowly pulse “on” and “off”, when the battery is less than 25% fully charged. When the battery is 25% charged, the red Charge LED will be solid.

The 50% Charge LED will slowly pulse “on” and “off”, when the battery is less than 50% fully charged. When the battery is 50% charged, the red Charge LED will be solid.

75%

Orange LED

25% 50% 75% 100%

100%

Green LED

25% 50% 75% 100%

Maintenance

Green LED

25% 50% 75% 100%

The 75% Charge LED will slowly pulse “on” and “off”, when the battery is less than 75% fully charged. When the battery is 75% charged, the orange Charge LED will be solid.

The 100% Charge LED will slowly pulse “on” and “off”, when the battery is less than 100% fully charged. When the battery is fully charged, the green LED will be solid, and the 25%, 50% and 75% Charge LEDs will turn “off”.

During maintenance charging, the 100% Charge LED will pulse “on” and “off” slowly. When the battery is topped off and fully charged again, the 100% Charge LED will turn solid green. The charger can be left connected to the battery indenitely.

Understanding Advanced Diagnostics.

Advanced Diagnostics is used when displaying Error Conditions. It will display a series of blink sequences that help you identify the cause of the error and potential solutions.

All Error Conditions are displayed with the Error LED and Standby LED ashing back and forth. The number of ashes between each pulse denotes a potential Error Condition (except reverse polarity and low-voltage battery).

Charging Steps.

Voltage (V)

Step

Current (A)

Step 1 & 2: Analyze & Diagnose

Checks the battery’s initial condition, including voltage, state-of-charge and health, to determine if the battery is stable before charging.

Step 3: Recovery

Initializes the Recovery desulfation process (if needed) for deeply discharged or sulfated batteries by pulsing small amounts of current.

Step 4: Initialize

Starts the charging process with a gentle (soft) charge.

Step 5: Bulk

Begins the Bulk charging process based on the condition of the battery and returns 80% of the battery’s capacity.

Step 6: Absorption

Brings the charge level to 90% by delivering small amounts of current to provide a safe, efcient charge. This limits battery gassing and is essential to prolonging battery life.

Step 7: Optimization

Finalizes the charging process and brings the battery to maximum capacity. In this step, the charger utilizes multilayered charging proles to fully recapture capacity and optimize the specic gravity of the battery for increased run time and performance. The charger will switch to Maintenance if the battery tells the charger that more current is needed.

Step 8: Maintenance

Cortesía de www.bateriasdelitio.eu

Continuously monitors the battery to determine when a maintenance charge should be initiated. If the battery voltage falls below its target threshold, the charger will restart the Maintenance cycle until voltage reaches its optimal state and then discontinues the charge cycle. The cycle between Optimization and Maintenance is repeated indenitely to keep the battery at full charge. The battery charger can be safely left connected indenitely without the risk of overcharging.

Charging Times.

The estimated time to charge a battery is shown below. The size of the battery (Ah) and its depth of discharge (DOD) greatly affect its charging time. The charge time is based on an average depth of discharge to a fully charged battery and is for reference purposes only. Actual data may differ due to battery conditions. The time to charge a normally discharged battery is based on a 50% DOD.
