Motor Run Mode - Competition Electronics Turbo35 SE Operating Instructions Manual

T35 Stealth op inst.
Automatic cycle mode is a way to run one or more charge/discharge cycles on a cell or battery pack. It allows for a
cooldown time between each charge/discharge cycle. You must use this mode to obtain relative I.R.
To get to this mode, push the (CYCLE) button. The message 'CYCLES X CELLS X' appears. The 'CELLS X' indicates
the number of cells to be cycled. The 'CYCLES X' indicates the number of cycles to be run. Set the number of cycles and
cells by using the (LEFT ARROW) button and the (UP ARROW/OFF) button. The cool down minutes between cycles
for more than one cycle can be set in the CYCLE MENU by pressing the (CYCLE) button. The message 'COOL DWN
MIN XXX" appears. Press the (CYCLE) push button again to get back. The TURBO35 will use the charge amps, delay
times, no. of peaks and peak detect drop-back volts set up in the charge mode. It will also use the cutoff volts and
discharge amps set up in the discharge mode.
To start this mode, push the (START) button. The message 'CYCLX CHGX XX.XX' will appear. The 'X' in 'CYCLX'
indicates the cycle number being run now. 'CHGX' tells that the TURBO35 is charging and that it is working on the the
1st,2nd or 3rd peak. The 'XX.XX' is the supply volts. The first line on the display will show the actual charge time in
seconds, the cell voltage and the charge current.
The display 'CYCLX DLYX XX.XX' indicates that it is in delay number 1,2 or 3 as designated in 'DLYX' by the 'X'
digit. The delays are set up in the charge mode. There is a 15 second delay between the last charge peak and discharge.
The display 'CYCLX DSCG XX.XX' indicates that it is in the discharge mode.
The display 'COOL DOWN CYCLEX' indicates that it is in the cool down period between cycles. The 'X' in 'CYCLEX'
designates the next cycle to be run. The number in the upper left hand corner is the time that has past in minutes for the
cool down period.
The cycle mode follows the sequence below.
*Charge battery - using charge mode setup
*Delay 15 seconds between charge and discharge
*Discharge battery - using the discharge mode setup
*Cool-down or completed depending on number of cycles set
DATA OBTAINED DURING AN AUTOMATIC CYCLE
After an automatic cycle has been run, the user may examine the data gathered on the battery pack.
All data gathered during individual charge and discharge cycles will be available after an automatic cycle is run. In
addition, relative internal resistance will be calculated and displayed.
RELATIVE INTERNAL CELL RESISTANCE DISPLAY
After the cycle mode has been run, the relative internal resistance of the cell can be displayed. Just push the (DATA)
button until the message 'REL INT RES XXX' is displayed. The method of calculating the internal cell resistance was
developed by Jeff Pack.
The lower the internal resistance the more punch the cell will deliver. Another effect the oval racers find is that the lower
resistance packs have more speed at the end of the run. The RC-1700/2000 will have a range from 25 to 40 for a single
cell.

MOTOR RUN MODE

The motor run mode will allow you to break in new brushes on a motor, or run a motor lathe, for example.
To get to this mode, push the (MOTR) button. The 'X.XX' indicates the volts you wish to run the motor at. Set the volts
desired by using the (LEFT ARROW) button and the (UP ARROW/OFF) button. The motor run time in seconds can be
set in the MOTOR MENU. To get there, just press the (MOTR) push button. Press the (MOTR) push button again to get
back.
