Programming Battery Adapters
1. C-Code Definition
The C-Code is a set of battery parameters stored in the
Battery Adapter. When the Battery Adapter is installed,
the analyzer reads the C-Code and configures the
Station to the appropriate battery parameters. The C-
Codes can be altered by the user. There are two C-
Codes stored in the adapter: the
Factory C-Code and
the User C-Code.

Factory C-Code
User C-Code
The Factory C-Code is programmed to a certain battery
type and is non-erasable. The C-Code number and
battery type are indicated on the label attached to the
Battery Adapter. To read the label, the Battery Adapter
must be removed.
A Universal Battery Adapter, such as the Smart Cable,
uses a NULL CODE as the Factory C-Code. To activate
this Battery Adapter, a C-Code specific to the battery
must be entered.
The User C-Code is entered by the user. By doing so,
the User C-Code becomes the dominant code and the
Factory C-Code moves to the background.
The Factory
C-Code can be reinstated with the Utility menu (refer to
CHAPTER 8 -
UTILITIES).
Note The Battery Adapters can be reprogrammed up to
100,000 times. The code is retained when the analyzer
is off or the Battery Adapter removed.
