The voltage shown on the Status Screen at the bottom of page 11 will be the voltage of the battery while it's under a load.
Loading often skews the voltage reading, which is normal. A higher load will skew the reading more than a smaller load.
The display can also show voltage curve graphs during charge or discharge. While in the Status Screen, move the cursor to
the "graphs" line at the bottom. Press the dial to highlight the selection, then rotate the dial to set the graph in either "auto"
mode (graph settings automatically set by charger) or "manual" mode (graph settings can be adjusted manually).
"Manual" graph view: Place the arrow next to "graphs", and press
progress for at least 5 seconds before the graph will show). This manual graph mode allows you to manually adjust several
features about the graph display, as explained below:
1352s
00.02A
4.367Vc
R: 0.36V
Rotate dial to adjust zoom
factor in the lower-right.
"x1" = 2 minute screen width,
data updates every second
"x5" = 10 minute screen width,
data updates every 5 seconds
"Auto" graph view: When "auto" is
selected on the setup screen, press
to view the graph. "Auto" will flash
next to "R:" along the bottom of the
screen. Here, only the zoom function
can be adjusted manually. When
adjusting the zoom factor, the voltage
center (Vc) and voltage range (R:)
values will change automatically.
Graphs always moves automatically from right to left. As shown above, the top line of all graphs shows the elapsed time in
seconds in which charge or discharge has been active, the current level in amps and the voltage present at the charger's output
at the time of the last measurement.

Press
anytime while a graph is showing to return to the Status Screen. Press
function completely, and stop the graph from advancing.
When charge ends the Status Screen will flash a message indicating the final result of the function which just ended.
Messages are as follows:
END: DELTA-PEAK:
END: ZERO DELTA-PEAK:
END: CC-CV FULL:

Press dial to highlight "Vc", which
is the voltage at the center point
of the y-axis (vertical). Rotate
dial to change the voltage at the
center point of the graph.
Auto Graph Mode
NiCd or NiMH battery finished charge when battery voltage peaked, then fell to the pre-
determined "peak sensitivity" value set in the main menu.
NiCd or NiMH battery finished charge when battery voltage reached peak while the peak
sensitivity function was set to "0mV".
LiPo or Li-Ion battery reached full charge.
