Rotate the 

Jog dial

 to go to the LiPo FAST CHG screen and set charging param-

eters. The charging amperage 

(A)

 can be set between 0.1 and 10.0A. Voltage 

(B)

 

is dependent on the number of cells in series. For example, with Li-Po batteries 
these values can be from 3.7V (for 1S batteries) to 22.2V (for 6S batteries).
Near the end of a standard charging cycle, the charger switches from Constant 
Current (CC) mode to Constant Voltage (CV) mode to slowly “top off” the current in 
the battery as close as possible to the maximum capacity.
In Fast Charge, the CV mode is eliminated in order to greatly shorten the charging 
time; however, the final capacity of the battery will be less than what you would get 
using the standard charge method.

   LI BATTERy VOLTAGE CHECKER OPERATION - USING THE BALANCE AdAPTER PORT

The Passport™ Ultra Duo charger has the capability to read and display the indi-
vidual cell voltages of a Li-Po, Li-Fe or Li-Io battery. This voltage checking function 
can only be used when the charger is powered ON and not charging a battery.
To use the voltage checker, connect the balance port connector of your Li-Po, Li-Fe 
or Li-Io battery to the balance adapter board connected to the Balance Circuit

0.00  0.00  0.00 V

This example is for a 2S battery, so only the voltages for these two cells are 
displayed. The data is presented in this format:

1–1    1–2    1–3 V

REST TIME

Use this menu to set the Rest time during each step in a cycle.When a Ni-MH 
or Ni-CD battery is cycled (charged, discharged and charged again) it will get 
hot, therefore it is necessary to set a rest time interval during each step of the 
process to make sure the battery and charger are completely cooled before 
moving on to the next part of the cycle. Default time is 10 minutes, but this 
can be set between 1 and 60 minutes. To select a value other than the default 
parameter:
•  Press the

SAfETy TIMER

Use this menu to set a time limit for charging a battery. When a charge cycle 
is started, a clock inside the charger will begin recording the elapsed charge 
time. If the SAFETY TIMER function has been turned ON, the charger will stop 
the charging process once this time limit has been reached to avoid damage 
caused by over-charging the battery. This time value can be set between 1 and 
720 minutes.
