The Default Battery Temperature 

parameters controls the charger’s 

estimated value of the battery 

temperature. The optimal charging 

voltage of a battery will decrease 

as its temperature increases. The 

charger uses this value to calculate 

its charging compensation if there 

are no battery temperature sensors 

installed and it cannot obtain real-

time data.
The three settings are 5°C, 21°C and 

38°C and Auto. In Auto, the charger 

measures its own internal tempera-

ture during startup and estimates 

the batteries to be the same. If the 

charger detects the battery tempera-

ture sensor(s) is/are installed, their readings will take precedence.
