Step 2
On each Charge port you will see a small slider switch. This slider
switch determines what battery chemistry and charge voltage is
applied to each charge port. You will see that the charger accom-
modates LiPo, Lion and LiFe.
Slider Switch
PLEASE NOTE:
BEFORE CONNECTING THE BATTERY OR 12volt POWER please set
the slider switch to match the battery chemistry. Failure to do
so could result in the battery pack receiving an incorrect charge
voltage and might damage the battery pack.
I Charge is designed to use with batteries that have an internal
battery balancing charge circuit.
If you are an advanced user then you know that some battery
chemistries do not require charge balancing however Advanced
Radio states that I Charger should be used only with self balanc
-
ing batteries.
Step 3
On the opposite end of the charger you will notice that there are
three sets of plug in pins per port or board.
On the right you have the battery pins (BAT) , next is the F-Bus
pins and finally the TMP or temperature sensor pins. You can plug
your battery into the bat pins either way as the center is positive
and both outside pins are negative.
The F-Bus is for future developments.
The TMP port can be used with the optional temperature sensor.
These can be placed on the battery to warn of excessive tempera-
ture.
