Cutoff Voltage
The discharge cycle is terminated when the pack voltage reaches the cutoff voltage
setpoint for the discharge cycle. Changing the cutoff voltage setting will affect the cutoff
voltage only for the number of cells selected.
AIR ON/OFF
This will turn the actual internal resistance measurement on or off. One result of this is
that the momentary discharge current alterations made for the actual internal resistance
measurement will not appear in the discharge graph, because they are not made when
AIR is OFF. This will give you a nicer looking discharge graph, if desired.
Interpreting the Results
Much of the data collected and calculated during the discharge cycle is displayed on the
pages of the data mode screens. Where that is the case, it will be indicated in the text
below.
Discharge or Run Time
This is simply the time it takes for the pack to reach the cutoff voltage at the discharge
rate setpoint. Use this to make pack comparisons. Seen on the main discharge screen, and
on page 2 of 2 of the dat mode screens.
mAHr
mAHr is a measure of the current that has been drawn out of the pack over time. It should
closely match the rating on the cell or pack when the cells are in good shape. Later, as the
packs deteriorate or the matching gets out of synch, mAHrs delivered will decline. Seen
on page 2 of 2 of the dat mode screens, and also on the main discharge screen.
mWHr
mWHr is a measure of the power that has been drawn out of the pack. See the section on
"Learning about Cells and Packs for R/C Racing" above for a more detailed explanation
of this parameter. Seen on page 2 of 2 of the dat mode screens.
Average Discharge Volts
The T35-GFX periodically measures the voltage across the pack while it keeps a running
total of the number of measurements made. From this, it calculates the average voltage
for the discharge process. A higher number means that the pack consistently delivered
more voltage over the course of the discharge process. Seen on page 2 of 2 of the dat
mode screens.
Average Discharge Volts at 1 Volt
The same as above, except the T35-GFX stops measuring when voltage per cell reaches 1
volt. Seen on page 2 of 2 of the dat mode screens.
