f) Discharging batteries (“DISCHARGE”)
Normally, it is not necessary to discharge lithium batteries (contrary to NiCd batteries). The
battery can be charged immediately, independent of its current status.
If you still want to discharge such a battery, you can set the discharge current between
0.1A and 5.0A.
¼
The maximum possible discharge current depends on the battery type and number
of cells. Please note the chapter “Technical Data” at the end of this operating
instruction.
Proceed as described in chapter 11. b) with the only difference being, that the battery is
not
charged but discharged .
The final discharge voltage differs depending on the set battery type and already preset in
the charger. In addition to the battery type, the display shows the associated voltage.
• LiPo: 3.0V per cell
• LiIon: 2.5V per cell
• LiFe: 2.0V per cell
¼
If a multi-cell battery is connected via the balancer connections, you can switch
between the normal display and the display of the cell voltages during the discharge
process by repeatedly pressing the “INC” button.
