- End current:
Set the final charging current at termination. The end current should be
less than the initial charge current. (Auto, 60-500mA)
Auto : The process will be terminated when the charging current go to 1/10 of its initial
value. Otherwise the charge current will be decreased until the designated value has been
reached.
- Chk time:
E6D recognizes the cell-count of Lithium battery automatically. But the battery
which has been discharged deeply can be perceived the cell-count incorrectly. The charger
will work on the cell-count anyway during the check time. But if the charger finds the wrong
cell-count at the end of check time, the process will be terminated with an error message.
Normally, 10 minutes are enough to perceive the cell-count correctly. For the battery of
larger capacity, you may extend the time term. (5-250min)
- CV Hold:
The charger will try to keep the final voltage of battery after finishing charge
process, if this sets 'ON'. When you let the battery remain connecting to charger, the
charger will keep working on charging with very small feeding current and the voltage
never drop below the final charge voltage. The balance job also will be kept on, if the
balance plug is connected. How long the battery remains in connection to charger, the job
will last until the battery is pulled out from charge leads (ON/OFF)
Safety programs for all types of battery
- Safety temp:
This is a feature using temperature probe contacting the surface of battery,
which can monitor the temperature of battery. The recommended maximum temperatures
are 45-55C(113-130F) for NiCd, 43-52C (110-125F) for NiMH and 32-35C (90-95F) for
Lithium. Once the battery reaches this temperature during the process, the program will be
terminated forcibly to protect the battery. If the battery reaches the temperature during
discharge, the discharge process the will temporarily pause to allow the battery to cool
down to a safe temperature. Then ,discharge process will automatically resume when the
battery's temperature drops about 4
℃
below the battery to reach during charge or
discharge process. (20-80C)
- Safety timer:
When you start a charge process , the integral safety timer automatic
starts counting. This is programmed to prevent over-charging or deep-discharging the
battery, when the charger or battery is proved to be fault, or the termination circuit cannot
detect the end of process. The value for the safety timer should be generous enough to
allow the full-charging.(10-1380min)
- Max capacity:
You can define the maximum capacity which can be charged or
discharged by the form of a percentage of battery capacity set in the top of display. If full-
charge has not been detected for any reason, the charger limits the quantity of feeding
energy by the value and terminates the process as on the value is reached. This is safety
feature programmed to protect the battery from over-charging or deep-discharging
condition.(50-120%)
