7. Pb( lead-sulphuric acid) battery program
This is programmed for charging Pb(lead-sulphuric acid) battery with nominal voltage
from 2 to 36V. Pb batteries are totally different from NiCd or NiMH batteries. They can
only deliver relatievely lower current compare to their capacity, and similar restrictions
definitely apply to charge. So the optimal charge current will be 1/10 of the capacity. Pb
batteries must not be charged rapidly. Always follow the instruction is supplied by the
manufacturer of battery.
When you are willing to alter the parameter value in the program, press Start/Enter key to
make it blink then change the value with INC or DEC key. The value will be stored by
pressing Start/Enter key once.

Set up the charge current on the left and the nominal
voltage of the battery on the right. The charge current
ranges from 0.1 to 10.0A and the voltage should be
matched with the battery being charged.
Start the charge process by pressing Start/Enter key for
more than 3 seconds.
The screen displays the state of charging process. To stop
charging forcibly, press Batt type/Stop key once.
The audible sound indicates you at the end of process.
Set discharge current on the left and final voltage on the
right. The discharge current ranges from 0.1 to 5.0A.
To start the process, press Start/Enter key for more than 3
seconds.
The screen displays the current state of discharge. You can
alter the discharge current by pressing Start/Enter key
during the process. Once you change the current value,
store it by pressing Start/Enter button again.
To stop discharging press Batt Type/Stop key once. The
audible sound indicates you at the end of process.
