Lithium battery in monitoring mode 

When  you  use  other  devices  to  charge  or  discharge  Lithium  pack,  the 

iCharger

  can  monitor  each  cell’s 

voltage,  battery  temperature,  charge  time  and  so  on,  if  one  of  the  batteries  appears  over-charged, 
over-discharged, over-hot, over-capacity or over-time ,the 

iCharger 

will alarm with noise 

“Di…..” 

and blink 

the raleted information. 

 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Charging/discharging cycle mode of Lithium battery.   
The left side of the first line shows the type of battery  you selected in the 

user  setup

  (LiPo,Lilo  or  LiFe)and  the  right  side  shows  the  cycle  number. 

The second line shows the cycle direction you selected : (C:x.xxV->D:x.xxV) 
or  (D:x.xxV->C:x.xxV),  the  value  of  the  second  line  sets  the  final 
charge/discharge  current.  After  setting  the  current  and  voltage,  press 

Start/Enter

  button  for  more  than  3  seconds  with  a  sound  ”Di”  to  start  the 

next process.   

Cycle number: 1 – 10 
Voltage: LiPo(3.00 – 4.20V), Lilo(2.50 – 4.10V), LiFe (2.00 – 3.60V) 

 
The number of cells you set and the processor detects. The left side of the 
first line ’R:xxSER’ shows the number of cells detected by the 

iCharger

 and 

the right side of the first line ’S:xxSER’ is the number of cells set by the user. 
If  the  numbers  are  different  you  should  make  sure  that  the  configured 
number and the actual number for the battery are the same and then you 
can start charging by pressing 

Start/Enter

. If not, press 

Batt type/Stop

 to 

go back to the previous screen and adjust the setting. 
 
Charging/discharging cycle mode of Lithium battery.   
In  this  process,  you  can  stop  the  cycle  at  any  time  by  pressing  the 

Batt 

type/Stop 

button.  In  the  process  of  C>D  or  D>C,  the  blink  “C”  indicates 

charging,  while  “D”  indicates  discharging.  Press 

Inc

 

button  to  display 

each  cell’s  voltage  and  its  past  cycling  current  (see  the  balance  voltage 
information&  cycling  information)  and  press 

Dec
