Fast and Storage Mode of Lithium Battery:
Depending on your application requirements, you may choose fast charge or
storage mode. Fast charge reduces the amount of time required for charging,
whereas ‘store’ state controls the fi nal voltage of your battery.
Re-Peak Mode of NiMH/NiCd Battery:
In re-peak charge mode, the charger can peak charge the battery once, twice,
or three times in a row automatically. This function is useful for ensuring a full
battery charge.
Delta-Peak Sensitivity for NiMH/NiCd:
This automatic charge termination program is based on the principle of the
Delta-peak voltage detection. When the battery’s voltage exceeds the threshold,
the process will be terminated automatically.
Cyclic Charging/Discharging:
1 to 5 cyclic and continuous charge > discharge or discharge > charge sessions
are optimal for battery performance and balancing.
Automatic Charging Current Limit:
You can set the upper limit of the charging current when charging your NiMH
or NiCd battery. The ‘AUTO’ charging mode, however, is recommended when
charging NiMH batteries with low impedance and capacity.
Battery Meter:
The user can check the battery’s total voltage, the highest voltage, the lowest
voltage and the voltage of each cell. The user can also check the battery’s total
internal resistance and the internal resistance of each cell.
Capacity Limit:
The charging capacity is always calculated as the charging current multiplied by
time. If the charging capacity exceeds the limit, the process will automatically
terminate according to the maximum value previously set.
Temperature Threshold*:
The battery’s internal chemical reaction will cause the temperature of the
battery to rise. If the temperature limit is reached, the process will be terminated.
* This function is available by connecting an optional temperature probe which
is available as a separate purchase.
Processing Time Limit:
Protect your battery by setting a maximum time limit for charging and discharging.

Optimized Operating Software:
The X1 mini features the user-friendly AUTO function that sets the feeding
current during the process of charging or discharging. For lithium batteries
especially, it can prevent overcharging and any resulting consequences. With
the AUTO function, users can disconnect the circuit automatically and trigger
a single alarm to sound if any malfunction has been detected. All programs
unique to the X1 mini are controllable through a two-way linkage and
communication system intended to maximize safety and minimize the trouble.
Every setting is customizable according to user preference.
Battery Memory (Data Store/Load):
The X1 mini is capable of storing up to 10 diff erent charge/discharge profi les for
your convenience. Users can keep the data pertaining to any program setting for
any battery to facilitate seamless charging or discharging. Saved profi les can be
accessed and recalled as necessary.
Terminal Voltage Control(TVC):
For experienced users, the charger’s end voltage can be reset.
“Charge Master” PC Control Software:
Compatible with the with downloadable “Charge Master” software, the X1 mini
gives you unparalleled ability to operate the charger via your personal computer.
You can monitor pack voltage, cell voltage, and other data during battery
charging or view the charge data in real-time graphs. The “Charge Master” gives
you the option to initiate and update fi rmware as well.
Internal Independent Lithium Battery Balancer:
The X1 mini employs an individual-cell-voltage balancer. It is not necessary to
connect an external balancer for balance charging.
Individual Cell Balancing While Discharging:
During the discharge process, the X1 mini can monitor and balance each cell
of the battery individually. If the voltage of any single cell reads abnormally, an
error message will display and end the process automatically.
Adaptable to Various Types of Lithium Battery:
The X1 mini is adaptable to various types of lithium batteries, including LiPo,
LiIon, LiFe and the new LiHV batteries.
