Basic Programming
Programming The Belt Load Manager
The MC-614 provides the ability to manage regulator field potential, making it possible to govern the horsepower loads
placed on the drive belt(s) by the alternator. The Belt Load Manager can also be used to protect the alternator from extraor-
dinary load created by a battery load that's too large for the alternator's capacity. The Belt Load Manager is accessed in
the basic programming mode, directly after the battery type programming mode. The Belt Load Manager can be accessed
at the same time the battery program is set, or by itself. To program the Belt Load Manager
When activating the programming mode, keep in mind that the regulator will scroll through the basic programming mode
three times before saving and returning to the operational mode. To adjust the regulator for your battery type:
1. Turn on the regulator. This may be accomplished by turning the ignition switch at the panel to the ON position. If the
regulator's BROWN ignition wire is connected to an oil pressure switch, it may be necessary to start the engine to
activate the regulator.
2. If the battery type program has been adjusted, TOUCH / HOLD when entry into the Belt Load Manager is indicated by
the bEL display on the regulator's LED.
3. If you don't wish to adjust the battery programming, TOUCH / HOLD the RED dot when the regulator is activated.
RELEASE when the Pro display is indicated. The regulator will indicate bA, for battery type, and will cycle to bEL.
4. TOUCH / HOLD. The regulator display will indicate b-0 (indicating that the Belt Load Manager is off). Continue to
HOLD. The regulator display continue to scroll through seven settings. Each setting decreases the field potential by
approximately seven percent.
5. RELEASE when the display indicates your desired level of field reduction. The display will cycle to bEL. You can re-
activate to change your selection, or wait until the regulator cycles to the next programming mode.
6. The display will cycle to Ab2, indicating the selection mode where the user can toggle between a secondary alternator
temperature sensor or a secondary battery temperature sensor on terminals #14 and #15.

Programming For Short Or Long Display Mode
You can choose the amount of information displayed on the regulator. The information displayed on the short or long dis-
play is detailed on Page 8 of the manual. To adjust the regulator for short or long display:
1. TOUCH / HOLD when entry into the short/long display selector is indicated by dSP on the regulator's LED.
2. The regulator display will indicate codes Sd (for short display) or Ld (for long display).
3. RELEASE when the display indicates your desired display mode. The display will cycle to dSP. You can re-activate to
change your selection, or wait until the regulator cycles to the next programming mode.

Programming For Alternator Failure Advisory Mode (BDL)
The regulator provides a ground signal on the dash lamp terminal when the following conditions occur: low battery volt-
age (<12.7V), high battery voltage (>15.5V), high battery temperature (>52˚C), or high alternator temperature (105˚C). In
addition, the user has the option to send the dash lamp to ground in the event that the stator output drops to zero volts.
The Regulator's Default bdL setting is ON. Monitoring stator output is an optional function which can be turned on or off
in the basic programming mode. The regulator's default setting for the bdL mode is ON, meaning that the stator output is
being monitored. This function can be used in conjunction with a relay to control a charge indicator lamp.
To enable or disable the stator monitoring function, activate and hold when the bdL mode is indicated. Release when the
desired setting is shown. NOTE: Stator wire must be connected to the regulator's Stator-In terminal to use this function.

Regulator Operation
The MC-614 regulator's microprocessor controlled charging system uses a sophisticated, multi-stage profile to deliver
maximum charging output, while protecting the batteries from overcharging damage. When the regulator is first turned on,
the processor performs a quick one-second self diagnostic assessment. Following that diagnostic, the MC-614 initiates a
charge program as follows:
1. Start Delay - Factory set at one second. Can be user-adjusted to a maximum of 999 seconds in the regulator's ad-
vanced programming mode. See Advanced Programming section for adjustment instructions.
2. Soft Ramp - Gently increases voltage to bulk preset levels based on battery program selected.
3. Bulk Charge - The most aggressive of the charging stages. Voltage is held at a pre-set level, specified by battery
program selected, for a set time period. Factory-set bulk time is 18 minutes. Adjustable in 6-minute increments.
4. Calculated Bulk Charge - Holds voltage at bulk level for six minutes, then calculates battery condition by comparing
existing voltage, time at voltage, and field percentage to target values. If values are met, the regulator advances to
the next stage. If values are not met, the regulator continues to bulk charge and compares real-time to target values.
This will re-occur until all values are met.
5. Ramps down to Absorption voltage.
6. Absorption Charge - Regulator continues to control the alternator's output voltage for an additional 18 minutes at
approximately 2/10's of a volt below bulk charging voltage. Adjustable in 6-minute increments.
7. Calculated Absorption Charge - Holds voltage at absorption level for six minutes, then calculates battery condition
bycomparing existing voltage, time at voltage, and field percentage to target values. If values are met, the regulator
advances to the next stage. If values are not met, the regulator extends the absorption charge and compares real-
time to target values. This will re-occur until all values are met.
8. Ramp down to Float.
9. Float Charge - Regulator continues to control the alternator's output voltage for an additional 18 minutes, typically
at a volt less than bulk voltage (based on battery program presets). After that initial fixed time period, the regulator
can respond to increased charging demand by cycling to absorption voltage. After 12 hours of continuous operation,
the regulator will automatically revert to absorption voltage through calculated absorption and back to float charging
stage.
