Use this menu to set a time limit on a lithium battery check. The battery charger can
automatically identify the number of series cells in a lithium battery pack. Normally
this checking process is very quick; however, it will not work properly if the battery
pack is damaged or over-discharged. Very large capacity packs will also take longer
to check. To prevent errors, the charger default is to spend up to 10 minutes to
identify the number of cells. Time limit can be between 5 and 60 minutes.

NiMH Sensitivity

D.Peak Default

Use this menu to adjust the peak voltage level (D.Peak) at which charging stops
for a Ni-MH battery pack. The D.Peak value is adjustable between 5mV/Cell and
20mV/Cell. generally, 8mV/Cell is a good choice for Ni-MH batteries. When this
value is set too high, a battery may be over-charged. When this value is set too
low, the charger will not charge a battery to full capacity.

Waste Time

CHG>DCHG 1min

Use this menu to set waste 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 waste 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 1 minute, but this can be set between 0 and 60 minutes.

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 10 and 720 minutes.

PROGRAM SELECT

Pb BATT

The nature of a Lead-Acid or Sealed-Lead-Acid battery is very different from that of
Lithium, Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries. The output current of a Pb battery is lower than
other batteries relative to their capacities. Furthermore, lead-acid batteries can’t be
charged at a level greater than 1/10 their capacity. For example, a 5000mAh lead
acid battery can’t be charged at a rate greater than 0.5A. For more details on the
charge and discharge capabilities of your battery, please refer to the charging data
supplied by the battery manufacturer.
Press the
