Safe timer calculation
When charging NiCd or Nimh batteries, divide the capacity by current, then divide
the result by 11.9, set this number of minutes as the value for safety timer setting. If
the charger stoppied at this time threshold, about 140% of the capatity will have
been fed into the battery.
For example:
Capacity Current Safety Time
2000mAh 2.0A (2000/2.0=1000)/11.9=84 minutes
3300mAh 3.0A (3300/3.0=1100)/11.9=92 minutes
1000mAh 1.2A (1000/1.2=833)/11.9=70 minutes
Lithium (LiIo/LiPo/LiFe) program
The program is only suitable for charging/discharging Lithium-polymer batteries
with a nominal Voltage of 3.3/3.6/3.7V/cell. Different batteries have different charge
technique. There are two methods termed as constant voltage and constant
current. The charge current varies according to battery capacity and specification.
The final voltage is very important; it should precisely match the voltage of the
battery: LiPo is 3.6V, LiLo is 4.1V, and LiFe is 3.6V. The current and voltage of the
battery should be correctly set.
When you want to change the values of parameters, please press START/ENTER
key to make it blink and then use DEC or INC to change the value. Then press
START/ ENTER key again to store the value.
