AGM batteries are only one type valve regulated lead acid batteries (VRLA). The chemistry is identical to flooded, lead acid batteries so no changes are needed. A few chargers have settings for different battery manufacturers voltage recommendations which raise the voltage during the absorptive charging stage above that recommended for flooded batteries with antimony strengthened plates. If you can adjust the absorptive voltage of your charger, you should use the battery's manufacture's recommendations.
