wow never seen that one before.

What does the absorb time say on MNGP display
Look at Battery Menu
ChgTime
Then press top right button with up arrow on it
you should see
Timer View HRS:MIN

Does the Absorb time on that also show bad number ?

If not maybe you should try uninstall Local Status App from your computer and then reinstall it

Just start clicking on the down arrow for the absorb time, that should highlight the digit field and you can type in a more reasonable number.   and then scroll below the FLOAT setting, to be able to click the upload button to the right 
If that does not work, sounds like a warranty claim

I've done that before if you are talking about the Absorb time being 71582788:07

Yeah I did something like that once,  You just have to click the large hour number and enter in, say,  04 once the 71582788 is highlighted.  I have no Idea how I did it,  but I have seen my time get all out of wack like that,  you just have to get the hour time back down to  normal range.

So, in that video, I do not see how you scroll the display down, and how you are writing to the classic.  how do you press the button I circled, when your mouse is on center of screen ??

If you are using keyboard keys - that could be the issue, use mouse clicks on the button

I doubt this is a defect in the Classic, I am sure it is software in the local app. Try going to the classic itself, push the main menu a few times until "Charge" is highlighted and press enter, Scroll to charge time and press enter. What do you see here for absorb time? if it is an odd value try setting it here for the desired time like 2:00 for example for 2 hours. If it is way off you can hold the upper left button (Left soft key) to speed the change up as you hold the up or down arrow.

The Local App software on the PC does not constantly read the status of the Classic's settings.

Pretty much the front panel numbers and meters are read every couple of seconds I think.
