displays when the calibration procedure has been started
but the DC plug was removed before the end.
Idle
displays after the next MaxTester cold boot.
Gas Gauge Accuracy
indicates the estimated battery gas gauge
accuracy.
Below 10 % accuracy error is
Very Good
.
Between 10 % and 20 % accuracy error is
Good
.
Over 20 % accuracy error is
Poor
and a gas gauge calibration is
needed in order to get optimal accuracy.
The following on-screen messages may appear:
Calibration Completed
is displayed after the procedure has been
started and successfully completed.
Calibration In Progress
is displayed when the procedure has been
started and not yet completed.
Calibration Aborted
is displayed when the procedure has been
started but the DC plug was removed or a power failure occurred
before the end, or if you terminate the calibration.
To start the gas gauge calibration:
1.
Select the
Calibration
button. Completion time is up to 20 hours
depending on the MaxTester's initial battery level and current power
consumption.
2.
Make sure the DC plug always stays connected and the unit is not
turned off until completion. Failing to do so will abort the procedure
and previous calibration parameters will be kept.
Note:
No other activity can be performed on the unit during calibration.
Note:
Going through this calibration does not affect the MaxTester's battery
capacity.
