Q: Can I use the REC12-690 in parallel with another unit for more current? A: Consult Section 6.4 of the manual. Yes, but only if your specific sub-model includes "current share" terminals. Without active current sharing, one unit will bear 90% of the load.
Q: The manual mentions "slew rate". What should it be set to? A: For battery charging applications, set the slew rate to 10 V/sec. For inverter bus applications, set it to 100 V/sec. The factory default of 50 V/sec is a safe starting point.
Q: Is the REC12-690 DC compatible with lithium batteries? A: Only if your manual revision includes "Li-ion mode" in the DIP switch settings (SW2-4 = ON). Otherwise, the float voltage (13.8V for lead-acid) will damage lithium cells. rec12-690 dc manual
