Additionally, the entire charging procedures can be recorded and generated into a charging curve for you to check on the screen. R1 comes with a memory module. Users can edit and save parameters of different batteries. Once the battery parameters are edited, the shortcut for parameters will be generated on the screen, which provides a simple on-click interface for users.

WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES Charging During charge process, a specific quantity of electrical energy is fed into the battery. The charge quantity is calculated by multiplying charge current by charge time. The maximum permissible charge current varies depending on the battery type or its performance, and can be found in the information by the battery manufacturer.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Depends on different battery types, the operating programs are different Operation Battery Description Program type This charging mode is for charging LiPo/ LiFe/ Lilon/ LiHV Balance Charge battery in normal mode. This program is for discharging LiPo/ LiFe/ Lilon/LiHV Storage LiPo battery which will not be used for long time.
OPERATION PROGRAM 1.Touch Screen Operation 1). Press the Left and Right Arrows on the LCD Touch Screen to scroll through the main menu screens. 2). Press the action at the button of the LCD Touch Screen to enter that menu. 3).
The following describes the action process of the charger, in order to lithium polymer battery charging program as an example. 1) Connecting power You can attach R1 directly to a 11-32V output power supply via the XT60 input cable. 2) Connecting The Battery Important!!! Before connecting a battery it is absolutely essential to check one last time that you have set the parameters correctly.
OPERATION PROGRAM 3.Charge program In this program, user can set the cell count, battery pack voltage, battery capacity, charge current, end voltage and charge mode, press Enter for more than 2 seconds to start charging. Notice: According to the battery capacity setting, charger will automatically set the charge current at a rate of 1C.

OPERATION PROGRAM 5.Storage Program for Lithium Battery “STORAGE” is a function which is specialized for Lithium battery storage, its operation is same as the discharge program. To store for a long time and protect useful time of the battery, it automatically charge/ discharge the battery to a safe voltage.
OPERATION PROGRAM 6. Battery Memory The charger can store up to 20 different charge/discharge profiles for your convenience, and the stored profiles can be recalled quickly without having to go through the setup process. 1). Save When you finish setting the charging/ discharging/storage parameters, please press ESC to return to the main menu screen, and go to MEMORY screen.
OPERATION PROGRAM 7.Data view With this program, user can check the battery cell voltage, internal resistance, input voltage, output voltage, inner temperature and external temperature. Please connect the battery to charger output port. (both main output and balance port). Input voltage Output voltage Internal temperature External temperature...
OPERATION PROGRAM 8.Lithium battery balancer This function is for unbalanced lithium battery pack, set the correct battery type when using this program, or it will damage the battery. The equalizer circuit will work independently and reduce the voltage difference to below 0.02V,which can prolong the lifetime of battery and reduce risks due to over discharge.
OPERATION PROGRAM 9.Digital Power In this mode, charger can provide a output power of DC 3.0V-24V for other device. Set output voltage Set output current Set output power Press Enter>2S=Start Real time output voltage Real time output current Real time output power A0: It shows the last setting here, press Start for more than 2 seconds to start if do not need any changes.
OPERATION PROGRAM 10. Forming Charge For long time not used NiMH/NiCd battery, charger will charge the battery pack by a low current for a long time, which can depolarize and reactive battery. Capacity Current, ranges from 10mA to 1000mA Time limit,ranges from 1-24 hours Trickle,OFF/AUTO/50mA-200mA Press Enter>2S=Start...
SYSTEM SETTING Notice: Please set the parameters in Setup menu when charger is powered on for the first time. This charger can recognize battery cell count automatically. It has a precharge function which can reactive the slightly over discharged battery. user can set the precharge time(normally 2 minutes) in the menu.
