   * **Minimum charge rate:**  not stated in our example, but typical minimum charging values are ~C/10 for lead chemistries.    * **Minimum charge rate:**  not stated in our example, but typical minimum charging values are ~C/10 for lead chemistries. 
   * **Temperature compensation** - how the voltage setpoints are adjusted for temperature.  While this is sometimes configurable, generally the compensation factor is close enough between manufacturers that it can be left at the default.    * **Temperature compensation** - how the voltage setpoints are adjusted for temperature.  While this is sometimes configurable, generally the compensation factor is close enough between manufacturers that it can be left at the default.
