The output is connected to a battery with incorrect polarity 
 
 
This  will  be  displayed  when  an  interruption  of  the  connection  between 
battery  and  the  charger  output  has  been  detected  during  charging  or 
discharging. 
 
 
A short-circuit at output. Please check the charging leads. 
 
 
 
The input voltage is below the limit set in the USER SET menu. 
 
 
 
The input voltage is over the limit (18V). 
 
 
The voltage of one of the cells in the Lithium battery pack is too low. 
Please check the cell voltages one by one. 
 
 
The voltage of one of the cells in the Lithium battery pack is too high. 
Please check the cell voltages one by one. 
 
In Balance charge mode, no battery is connected to the charger’s balance 
port. 
 
 
Without  using  the  balance  port,  the  cell  count  detected  by  the  charger  is 
less than that set by the user. 
Please check the cell count of the battery pack. 
 
Without  using  the  balance  port,  the  cell  count  detected  by  the  charger  is 
higher than that set by the user. 
Please check the cell count of the battery pack. 
 
The internal temperature is over 65

F). Cool down the unit. 

 
 
 
The  external  temperature  sensor  detects  (battery)  temperature  above  the 
limit. 
 
 
The  capacity  (mAh)  charged  or  discharged  reached  the  configured 
protection limit.
