Default reduce charging rate

My 2001 has a ProSine 3000. When connected to 30amp service, I would like to change the charging rate to 15 or 5 amps, but my manual does not give a clue how to do it. Now sure I can reduce the rate. Would appreciate advise.

what is selectable on mine is to select the incoming power. i dont think i remember that you can select anything else regarding the charging rate other than the type of batteries and size of battery bank

On my last two coaches with Heart Interface, you could change the charge rate when connected to 30 amp service. Apparently not so on the Newell.

Chester,

I have a Links 2000 control that operates my Heart 2500 inverter/charger. I adjust the charging amps down from 30 amps down to 5 amps when I am using a 30 amp plug in.

Do you have a Links 2000 control head inside your coach?

Tuga, mine is a Statpower control head. Perhaps that is the limitation.
