Initial parameter set up (Users set up)

You can set the trickle charge mode on or off. If it is 
on, the charger will automatically supply the trickle 
charge current to achieve the full charge without 
overheating the battery after fast charge has been 
terminated.

When you start a charge process, the integral safety 
timer automatically starts running at the same time. 
This is programmed to prevent overcharge the battery 
if it proves to be faulty, or if the termination circuit 
cannot detect

 

the battery full. The value for the safety 

timer should be generous enough to allow a full charge 
of the battery.

This program sets the maximum charge capacity 
that will be supplied to the battery during charge. 
If the delta-peak voltage is not detected nor the 
safety timer expired by any reason, this feature 
will automatically stop the process at the 
selected capacity value.

The beep sounds at every time pressing the but
tons to confirm your action. The beep or melody 
sounded at various times during operation to 
alert different mode changes. These audible 
sounds can be turned on or off.

This program monitors the voltage of input battery. 
If the voltage drops below the value you set the 
operation forcibly terminated to protect the input 
battery.

You can adjust the brightness of LCD 

screen at 

the charger.

This shows the trigger voltage for automatic charge 
termination of NiMH and NiCd battery. The effective 
value ranges from 5 to 20mV per cell. If the trigger 
voltage is set higher, there is a danger of over charging 
the battery; if it is set lower, there is a possibility of 
premature termination. Please refer the technical 
specification of the battery. (NiCd default: 12mV, 
NiMH default: 7mV)

An optional feature using temperature probe contacting 
the surface of battery, the temperature cut-off can be on 
or off. If it is on, set the maximum temperature at which 
the charger should allow battery to reach during charge. 
Once a battery reaches this temperature during charge, 
the process will be terminated to protect the battery. 

The battery is on the cyclic process of charge and 
discharge can often become warm after charge or 
discharge period. The program can insert a time 
delay to occur after each charge and discharge pro
cess to allow the battery adequate time to cool down 
before being subjected to the next process. The 
value ranges from 1 to 60 minutes.
