The value of discharge current on the left side of
screen may not exceed 1C for a maximum safety
and the final voltage on the right should not be
under the voltage level that is recommended by
the battery manufacture to avoid deep
discharging.
To start to discharge press
Start/Enter
key for
more than 3 seconds.
(Discharge current:0.1~5.0A)
This shows the present state of discharge. To
stop discharging press

Discharging of lithium battery
Discharging of lithium battery
The processor monitors the voltage of individual cells during 'storage-mode' and
'discharge' of Lithium battery pack. It tries to normalize the voltage to be equal. For
this feature, the individual plug of the battery pack should be connected to the
individual port of the charger.
If the voltage of an one or more cells varies abnormally during the procedure, B8+
terminates the process forcibly with the error messages. If this happens, the battery
pack contains the bad cell, or the bad connection of the cable or plug. You can easily
know which one cell is bad by pressing Inc> button at time of showing the error
messages.

The processor found that the voltage of one of the cell
in the Lithium battery pack is too low.
In this case, the 4th cell is bad. If there happen the
connection-break of the cable or plug, the voltage
value may show zero.
