included MP D•LINK2 harness to connect to and customize the throttle profiles in the
Cyclone C2 and TC2

Refer to instruction sheet 2 for Pit Wizard software operation.
RECOMMENDED CHARGE SETTINGS

ups into the Millennium Pro's five charge profile locations. The following is our complete list of
recommendations for charging different packs, cell sizes, and types of batteries.

RE-PEAKING BATTERIES
Ni-Cd CELLS
If you prefer to re-peak your Ni-Cd cells after charging, wait a short amount of time after the
initial charge is complete to allow the individual cells to equalize, then re-start the charger to
bring all the cells up together until they peak.
Ni-MH CELLS
We DO NOT recommend re-peaking Ni-MH cells. Use these immediately after initial charge.
