Setting the delta peak charging method
Progr:1 L 5.0A
Peak 0.15V 0min
Selecting the delta peak charging method
Peak
at the bottom left of the setup display allows you to
set the value of the voltage peak (default value: 0,1V). Excessive peak voltage can overload and
destroy a battery pack.
In addition, a delay time can be set. Here the battery pack voltage is tested for a voltage drop only
after the set time. This enables charging even old battery packs with poor voltage characteristics
using the delta peak method. CAUTION: the delay is not suited for recharging (repeaking) battery
packs.
Setting the temperature charging method
Progr:1 L 5.0A
Temp 42C 3000mAh
Selecting the temperature charging method
Temp
at the bottom left of the setup display allows you
to set the cutoff temperature and the maximum charged capacity; i.e., charging is terminated when
the preset battery pack temperature or the preset charged capacity is attained. If the temperature
probe is not connected properly, the set maximum charged capacity still largely protects the battery
pack against overloading. The setting for charged capacity must accommodate the respective battery
pack type. This value can be determined via several test charges, where the highest possible capacity
value is used. Experience puts the values for Sanyo battery packs at ca. 2500-2800 mAh and for
Panasonic battery packs at ca. 2600-3000 mAh.
