o
Batteries with resistance above 800m
Ω
(as measured by OhmTest). It is
advisable to run an OhmTest to determine battery resistance prior to
running the Learn program.
o
Batteries that disconnect, reset or give failures while running the Learn
program.
o
Batteries that cannot accept a charge rate and discharge rate of at least
1.00C. These batteries tend to give errors if they are serviced on the
analyzer using the Auto or Prime programs.
Learn Procedure
Calibrate the adapter
and ensure that the C-code for the battery is correct. Take a
good battery (over 80% capacity) and run through the Learn program. After the
Learn program is complete, take the battery and while it is in the same adapter, run
the QuickTest program. The final SoH (state-of-health) result should be within the
range of the actual battery capacity. If not, erase the battery matrix (press F
N
and
then press
2) and start over. Once successful, test other batteries with the same
capacity, if possible, to ensure that the SoH readings are within an acceptable
range.
To create the most effective matrix, repeat the above steps with more batteries. It is
recommended to run the Learn program on at least three batteries: one with a
capacity above 90%; one with a 70-80% capacity and finally one at 70% capacity.
The batteries can be run through the Learn program in any order.
The battery matrix will be erased if anything in the C-code is changed except for
the target capacity and the actual program (i.e Auto, Charge, Prime, QuickTest or
any of the other programs).
Q-Learn (QuickLearn)
Function:
Q-Learn creates and stores a matrix in a C-code for use by QuickTest.
The Q-Learn program is only run once on a battery. For more accurate results, use
the Learn program instead.
