Error Indicators - Multiplex MULTIcharger LN-3008 EQU Instructions Manual

automatically terminates the charge process
using the Delta-Peak cut-off method, but in
any case after a maximum of one and a half
hours (Safety Timer).
• Hold the START/STOP button pressed in to
initiate the charge process. The unit now
automatically detects the cell-count of your
battery, and charges the pack. During the
charge process the CHARGE LED and the
LED for the set battery type light up. If you
have connected the Balancer socket of your
LiXX battery to the EQUALIZER Port, the
LED for the set LiXX battery type flashes to
indicate that the EQUALIZE process is
running simultaneously.
• As soon as the battery is fully charged, the
unit automatically terminates the process
and beeps repeatedly to warn you of this. At
the same time the CHARGE END LED lights
up.
• You must press the START/STOP button
again before you charge the next battery;
this action returns the charger to stand-by
mode.
• You can interrupt the charge process at any
time, i.e. before the battery is fully charged,
by pressing the START/STOP button.
6.2. Equalizing Lithium batteries
This function is used to match the individual
cell voltages of your LiXX battery without
charging the pack at the same time.
• Connect your charge lead to the charger (
NiXX/LiXX Charge), then connect your
Lithium battery to the charge lead. Take care
to maintain correct polarity (red = positive
terminal, black = negative terminal)!
• Always connect the Balancer socket of the
LiXX battery to the charger's EQUALIZER
Port at the same time, again taking care
over correct polarity.
• Select the desired Lithium battery type by
pressing the BATT TYPE button; the
associated LED lights up to indicate the
currently set battery type.
• The position of the CHARGE CURRENT
rotary knob has no effect during the
EQUALIZE process.
• A brief press on the START/ STOP button
initiates the EQUALIZE process. During the
EQUALIZE process only the LED for the set
LiXX battery type flashes; the CHARGE LED
remains off.

Operating Instructions - MULTIcharger LN-3008 EQU
• As soon as the voltages of the individual
cells of your LiXX battery are properly
matched (balanced), the charger indicates
this by emitting multiple beeps; at the same
time the CHARGE END LED lights up.
• During the EQUALIZE process you can
press the START/STOP button to interrupt
the process before the balancing of the
individual cell voltages is complete.

7. Error indicators

Errors are indicated by the charger beeping,
and by the CHARGE and CHARGE END
LEDs flashing repeatedly.
Error type
Input voltage below 11 V or
above 15 V
No battery connected to the charger,
or error in the connection between
charger and battery
Battery connected to the charger with
reversed polarity
NiXX battery with fewer than 4 or
more than 8 cells, or LiXX battery
with fewer than 2S or more than 3S
cells connected to the charger
The balancer connector of an LiXX
battery was not connected to the
EQUALIZER PORT when the
EQUALIZE process was initiated
or the Balancer socket of an LiXX
battery was disconnected from the
EQUALIZER Port during the charge
or EQUALIZE process, or the
balancer plug of a LiXX battery is
connected to the EQUALIZER port,
but the charger is currently in NiXX
mode, or the voltage of one individual
LiXX battery cell is too low:
- LiPo packs: below 2.75 V per cell
- LiIo packs: below 2.75 V per cell;
- LiFe packs: below 2.00 V per cell;
Or too high:
- LiPo packs: above 4.30 V per cell
- LiIo packs: above 4.20 V per cell
- LiFe packs: above 3.90 V per cell
Problem within the charger, or the
Safety Timer has tripped (1.5 hours
with NiXX batteries; 3 hours with LiXX
batteries)
