Newer firmware (version 46-329187G1/46-329188G1 and after) limits the charge

 Set for French or English Operator Messages

Selection of French or English operator messages is determined by position 6 of DIP

switch S75 on the AMX Controller (CPU) Board.

1. Look at the operator messages displayed to determine if they are in the desired
language.

2. To change the language of the operator messages, set Position 6 of DIP switch
S75 on the CPU Board in accordance with Illustrations 2 and 3.

 The other positions of S75 are shown for reference, but should not require
changing.

The new Genesis batteries were thoroughly tested prior to being packed for this batĆ

3. Measure each cell (no-load) and record the output voltage in Table 4.

4. Add the NO-LOAD VOLTAGE values for each battery.

5. Divide the Step 4 sum by 9 (to establish the pack average).

6. Compare the individual NO-LOAD VOLTAGE values to the PACK AVERĆ

Batteries more than 0.2 volts lower than the pack average fail the no-load test. Order
individual cells (2172339) if required.

The battery pack is good and can be installed.

!       

1. Read the test date on the batteries. If the battery PACK is:

D MORE than two years old, go to Section 3Ć4

D LESS than two years old, order individual replacement cells (2172339)

!      

1. Replace entire battery set with a new FULLY-CHARGED battery set.

2. Mark ALL nine batteries of the old set as defective. Return defective battery
pack.

Route the terminal block cable through the unit and mount the terminal block
as follows:

a. Open top cover of AMX-4.

b. Route connector end of furnished terminal block cable through grommets

in chassis as shown in Illustration 21.

c. Drill two holes 0.140 inches (9/64 inch) diameter, 2.65 inches apart, and atĆ
tach terminal block using hardware as shown in Illustration 21.

d. Secure terminal block cable to existing harness using furnished Ty-rap

straps. Connect other end of cable to the test terminal board connector J11.

#' The terminal block is a test point, and is only connected to the harness.

e. Measure the individual battery voltages across terminals of terminal block.

Position 1 to Position 2 of terminal block measures Battery #1, Position 2 to
Position 3 measures Battery #2, and so forth. Voltage of each battery should
be greater than 12.0 Volts. The actual value will depend upon battery state
of charge.
