pressed in for at least two seconds. The various modes (CHARGE,
DISCHARGE, STORAGE, FAST-CHARGE, BALANCE, etc.) are
then displayed.
The procedure is identical to that required for starting a process for
one of the twenty memories ("Memory name" menu). The same
set-up facilities and parameters are available.
After highlighting the desired process using the "+" or "-" but-

If you wish to read out the saved data, you must first press the
"STOP / ESC" button. This display now shows the maximum
charged-in and discharged capacity of all the charge / discharge
processes involving this battery.
Note:
The data cannot be displayed if any process (charging, dischar-
ging, etc.) is currently active.
The illustration shows a typical screen display, which gives you a
means of estimating the values for your battery, and accurately
assessing the overall state of the pack . No additional equipment,
such as a PC with the appropriate software, is required.
