Note: About confirmation of charge/discharge function
We can get the current capacity of the battery by pressing the refresh button. it means that we can check
the discharge/charge function of the battery. If we want to check the discharge/charge function, we need
to control the time of DC in/out for testing by ourselves.
a. To check the discharge function of the battery: unplug the DC, wait some times and then click the
refresh button to see if the battery capacity reduced by 1%, wait and click again if it hasn’t reduced.
b. To check the charge function of the battery: when above discharge function checked OK (battery
capacity reduced), you can plug-in the DC back, wait some times and then click the refresh button to
see if the battery capacity increased by 1%, wait and click again if it hasn’t increased. Charge function
is OK if the battery capacity can be increased.
