When NiMH&NiCd batteries are deeply discharged or left unused for a long 
time,  they  will  produce  a  false  -

V  which  stops  charging  early.  You  can 

disable -

V testing to avoid this problem. 

Range: 0 –

 

30min (0, default) 

 
 
Battery upper temperature limit. The battery temperature can be monitored 
with  the  attached  temperature  sensor.  In  order  to  protect  the  battery  from 
damage  due  to  high  temperatures  the 

iCharger

  will  stop  charging  or 

discharging  immediately  if  the  temperature  exceeds  the  cut-off  setting. 
Users can choose

o

F = (9/5)×

+32. 

 
Charging  time  upper  limit.  The  charging  process  will  stop  immediately  if  it 
exceeds the set value. 

Range: 1 –

 

999min 

 
 
 
 
Capacity protection. The charging/discharging process will stop immediately 
if the calculated charge input/drained exceeds the set value.   

Range: 100 –

 

99900mAh 

 
 
 
 
Input  voltage  protection  lower  limit.  The  charging/discharging  process  will 
stop immediately if the input voltage falls below the set value.   

Range: 10.00 –

 

15.00V (10.00V, default) 

 
 
 
Charge/Discharge  power  limit.  The  maximum  charge/discharge  power  of 

iCharger

  can  be  adjusted  in  order  to  limit  internal  temperature  and  to

 

protect the input current from over-loading

. When the limit is set to AUTO 

the 

iCharger 

can  adjust  the  output  charging  power  according  to  the  input 

capability.

Key confirmation and alert tone. If the keyboard sound is ON there will be a 
beep when you press any key. If the buzzer is ON the 

iCharger

 will 

generate an alert tone for certain events. 

Key Beep: OFF&ON: (ON, default) 
Buzzer: OFF&ON: (ON, default) 

 
Process completion tone. Controls the tones generated at end of charging 
or discharging and the cyclic charging/discharging indication. 

Options: Beep 5 times, Beep 3 minutes, Beep always (continuous until 
user presses STOP), Beep OFF   
(Beep always, default) 

 
Back-light and cooling fan control. Adjust the

 

LCD backlight brightness. 

There are three cooling fan modes: ON, OFF, AUTO. In AUTO-Mode,

 

iCharger 

adjusts the fan automatically to control its internal temperature.
