PROGRAM
User setup starting screen.
The screen displays the nominal voltage of Lithium
battery. There are three kinds of Lithium battery;
LiFe(3.3V),Lilo(3.6V) or LiPo(3.7V). This is very
important so you have to check the battery carefully
and set it up correctly. If it is different from correct
value the battery can explode during charge process.
A8 recognise the cell count of Lithium battery
automatically at the beginning of charge or discharge
process to avoid from erroneous setting by user. But
deeply discharged battery can be perceived incorrectly.
To prevent the error, you can set the time term to verify
the cell count by the processor. Normally, 10 minutes
are enough to perceive the cell count correctly. For
the battery of larger capacity, you may extend the
time term. But if you set the time term too long for the
battery of smaller capacity, the charge or discharge
process can be finished within the time term with the
erroneous cell count. This may cause the fatal result.
If the processor recognises the cell count incorrectly at
the beginning of charge or discharge process, you may
extend the time. Otherwise, you had better use with
the default value.
