Delay
Delay appears on the "Peak 2" page of the charge mode screens. Use it to set the number
of seconds between the first and second peak functions. One reason to use the delay is to
let the pack rest after the first peak.
Interpreting the Results
Much of the data collected and calculated during the charge cycle is displayed on the
pages of the data mode screens. Where that is the case, it will be indicated in the text
below.
Peak Volts
Peak volts is related to the charge function but it is located on page 1 of the data mode
("dat mode") screen. This is the highest voltage recorded across the pack during the
entire charge cycle. Seen on page 1 of 2 of the dat mode screens.
mAHr
Charge mAHr is the measure of the power delivered into the pack. Seen on the main
charge screen.
Charge Time
This tells you how long it took to charge your pack. It is found on the main charge screen.
Other Features
Moving from "Peak 2" to the "3 of 3" page exposes several miscellaneous functions,
described below.
Trickle Charge
After the main portion of the cycle is through, setting Trickle Charge to ON will enable a
fixed 100mA current into the pack for the purpose of trickle charging.
The trickle charge will be automatically disabled if the charge current is set below 2
amps.
Trickle, if enabled, will continue until the user stops the cycle.
Delayed Start
Wouldn't it be nice if you could time your charge cycle so it would finish just before the
race? That's what this feature is for. Dial in the number of minutes for the delay; then
press start. Your charge cycle will begin that many minutes after you press start.
Miscellaneous Features and Functions
Adjusting Charge Rate during a Charge Cycle
The T35-GFX allows you to adjust the charge rate while the charge cycle is active. One
use for this feature is to speed up the charge if you see that it won't be done soon enough.
Do not use this if you want accurate readings; it's just a convenience to shorten charge
time.
