This mode is used for discharging 2 to 20V lead acid batteries.
Discharging is typically used to determine the residual capacity of the battery or
to lower the voltage of the battery to a pre-defined level.
We don’t recommend discharging a lead acid battery any lower than 80% of
its stated capacity or damage to the battery could result.
1) Connect the charger to its power source, plug the output power adapter cord
into the power outputs of the charger, then connect the output power adapter
cord to your lead acid battery, making sure the polarity is correct.
2) Press the STOP or DEC buttons to scroll to the
PROGRAM SELECT PB BATT menu, then press
the ENTER button to open the menu. Press
the DEC or INC buttons to scroll to the DISCHARGE menu.
