  • Page 3 Notes Safety and Operating Environment Always use a grounded AC outlet to power the Analyzer X3 & X6. Keep the Analyzer X3 & X6 at least one-foot away from any object to allow for proper ventilation. Do not Analyze Batteries outside the recommended temperature ranges. For good and consistent results, 25°C (Room temperature) is recommended.

    OVERVIEW The W&W Analyzer X3& X6 is a programmable battery tester and battery cycler capable of testing a variety of battery chemistries such as; Lithium Ion, Lithium Polymer, Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride. Most mechanical shapes can be accommodated with a specially designed battery cup. See battery Cup description for more information.

    Learn Mode This mode when selected will allow a battery’s parameters to be created for new battery models. A battery “Adapter Cup” holds a total of 5 battery profiles for parameter storage; four are preprogrammed with OEM information for a particular battery series. The fifth profile can be modified by the “Learn Mode”.

  • Page 7 Charge Mode The Analyzer X3 and X6 applies two types of charge algorithms for the two types of chemistries. For Nickel based battery chemistries, a constant current of 1C (changeable with software option) is applied until the battery voltage peaks and descends negative. A top off current or 0.2C is then applied for 30 minutes to bring the total charge to 100%.

    Getting Started Power Up - Connect the unit to the proper AC voltage and Turn-on power using the switch located on the Back of the unit. WW Manufacturing ONCE THE UNIT HAS BEEN POWERED, THE DISPLAY V3.20P Date: 2.09.03 SHOULD SHOW, AND THEN SHOW EMPTY EMPTY EMPTY...

    Condition Mode The CONDITION CYCLE serves basically two needs of Nickel based batteries, one is to reform the Cells of a battery that hasn’t been used for an extended period of time, say for 3 or more Months. Secondly this mode will eliminate MEMORY EFFECT better known as VOLTAGE DEPRESSION. Usually deep discharging the battery will restore the battery back to normal capacity such as the discharging and charging cycle used in the Analyzer X3 and X6.
  • Page 10: Cycle Mode

    Cycle Mode The Cycle mode will cycle a battery through a charge and discharge cycle, known as Cycle (1). One could Select, Cycle 1, 2 or 3. By selecting cycle 1,2 or 3 all one would be doing is repeating the Charge/discharge number to reflect the chosen Cycle count.
