Features - HITEC X2 AC Plus Operation Manual

Features

Dual Input and Power Distribution:
The X2AC Plus has a dual AC/DC input comprised of AC 100-240V and DC 11-
18V. In DC mode, the power of each channel is 100W with an overall power of
200W. Power distribution is supported in AC mode. For example, if Channel A is
70W and Channel B is 30W, total power is 100W.
Optimized Operating Software:
The X2AC Plus features an AUTO function that sets the feeding current during
charging or discharging. For lithium batteries especially, this function helps
prevent overcharging and its consequences. It can also disconnect the circuit
automatically and sound an alarm if an abnormal reaction has been detected.
Each programming feature of your X2 AC plus is controlled by two way linkage
and communication and is completely customizable to the user's preferences.
Battery Memory (Data Store/Load):
The charger can store up to 10 unique charge/discharge profiles for each
channel and lets you recall the data from each program setting at any time.
Terminal Voltage Control(TVC):
For experienced users, the charger's end voltage can be reset.
PC Control Software "Charge Master":
Equipped with free "Charge Master" software, the X2AC Plus gives you
unparalleled ability to operate the charger via your personal computer. You
can monitor pack voltage, cell voltage, and other data during battery charging
or view the charge data in real-time graphs. The "Charge Master" gives you the
option to initiate and update firmware as well.
With the "Charger Master" software and a single computer connection, you are
able to operate and update two channels at the same time.
Smart Phone Control via Wi-Fi Module (iOS and Android):
Finally, a battery charger with its own apps! This charger can be operated using a
smart phone with Wi-Fi connectivity (optional part 44228).
Internal Independent Lithium Battery Balancer:
Hitec's X2AC Plus employs an individual cell-voltage balancer. It is not necessary
to connect an external balancer for balance charging.

Re-Peak Mode of NiMH/NiCd Battery:
In re-peak charge mode, the charger can peak charge the battery once, twice,
or three times in a row automatically. This function is useful for ensuring a full
battery charge.
Delta-Peak Sensitivity for NiMH/NiCd:
This automatic charge termination program is based on the principle of the
Delta-peak voltage detection. When the battery's voltage exceeds the threshold,
the process will be terminated automatically.
Cyclic Charging/Discharging:
1 to 5 cyclic and continuous charge > discharge or discharge > charge sessions
are optimal for battery performance and balancing.
Automatic Charging Current Limit:
You can set the upper limit of the charging current when charging your NiMH
or NiCd battery. The 'AUTO' charging mode, however, is recommended when
charging NiMH batteries with low impedance and capacity.
LiPo Battery Meter:
The user can check the battery's total voltage, the highest voltage, the lowest
voltage and the voltage of each cell.
Battery Internal Resistance Meter:
The user can check the battery's total internal resistance and the internal
resistance of each cell.
Capacity Limit:
The charging capacity is always calculated as the charging current multiplied by
time. If the charging capacity exceeds the limit, the process will automatically
terminate according to the maximum value previously set.
Temperature Threshold*:
The battery's internal chemical reaction will cause the temperature of the
battery to rise. If the temperature limit is reached, the process will be terminated.
* This function is available by connecting an optional temperature probe which
is available as a separate purchase.
Processing Time Limit:
Protect your battery by setting a maximum time limit for charging and discharging.
