    1. Features Optimized operating software The 'AUTO' function can set the current automatically when charging or discharging. Especially for Lithium battery, it can prevent over-charging which might lead to an explosion. Every program in the unit is controlled with mutual links and communication which guarantees the maximum safety for every possible error.

    Input voltage monitor: To protect the battery which is used as input power from being damaged, the charger will monitor the voltage. If it dorps below the lower limit the process will be ended automatically. ※ Automatic cooling fan: The electric cooling fan comes into action automatically when it starts to charge or discharge.
  • Page 5: Warnings And Safety Notes

    3. Warnings and safety notes · Never leave the charge unsupervised when it is connected to its power supply. If any malfunction is observed please terminate the process immediately and refer to the Manual. · Keep away the unit from dust, damp, rain, heat direct sunshine and vibration. Do not drop it.
  • Page 6 Discharge · The typical purpose of discharge is to confirm the residual capacity of the battery or to lower the voltage of battery to a defined level. When you discharge the battery you also have to pay attention to the process. To avoid over-discharging, please set the nominal discharge voltage correctly.

    It shows the current state of ‘FAST’charging. Press Batt Type/Stop to stop charging. 6.5 Discharging Lithium battery For a maximum safety, the value of discharge current on the left side should not exceed 1C. And to avoid over discharging, the nominal voltage on the right side should not be lower than the voltage level that is recommended by the manufacturer.

    The screen displays the current state of charging. Press Batt type/Stop to stop the process. The audible beep indicates you the end of charging process. 7.2 Discharging NiCd/NiMH battery Set discharge current on the left side and nominal voltage on the right.
  • Page 13: Charging Pb Battery

    8.1 Charging Pb battery Set charge current on the left side and nominal voltage on the right. The charge current ranges from 0.1 to 6.0A. The voltage should be matched with the charging batteries. Press Start /Enter for 3 seconds to start the charging process.
  • Page 14: Load Data Program

    Set up discharge current and final voltage. Set up the sequence of charge and discharge, and the cyclic times. Save the data. 10. Load Data Program This program can call back the data that was stored at 'Save Data' program. The number area will blink when press Start/Enter, then you can press DEC/INC to choose the value, Choose the data number you want to call back, then it will be displayed.
