NiMH/NiCd Battery Program
NiMH/NiCd Cycle Mode:
The B6 V2 makes cycling of NiMH/NiCd batteries easy. The process of
discharging and recharging (cycling) can be performed automatically
with one simple step and will improve the performance of NiMH/NiCd
batteries. We strongly recommend cycling any battery that has been
discharged and stored for a period of time. This will increase the
remaining usable battery life and also improve the battery
performance.
After selecting the correct battery type, use
the INC or DEC button to select the “CYCLE”
mode. The Cycle Mode gives you two cycling
options: “DCHG>CHG” or “CHG>DCHG“. The
“DCHG>CHG” option will first discharge the
battery and then recharge the battery.
The “CHG>DCHG” option will first charge the
battery and then discharge the battery. If this
screen does not show your desired cycling
option, press the START button once and this
setting will begin flashing. Use the INC or
DEC button to change this setting.
Pressing the START button again will cause
the cycle count to begin flashing. Use the INC
or DEC button to change this to the number of
cycles you want the B6 V2 to run. The B6 V2
can cycle the battery a maximum of 5 times
consecutively.
Press and hold the START button for 3
seconds to start the Cycle Mode.
Once cycling has commenced, the charger will
display the following real-time information:
battery type, charging/ discharging current,
battery voltage, working mode
,
elapsed time
and charged/discharged capacity. You will also
Once the cycling process is complete, the screen will read “DONE”
and the charger will emit a ringing sound. The B6 V2 will display the
charged/discharged capacity for each cycle. Using the + and -
buttons, you can scroll through this data for each cycle.

see “D>C“ or “C>D“. This will indicate which
cycling order you have chosen.
Either “D“ or “C“ will be flashing. This flashing
