The
Pulsar Touch
contains an integrated competition balancer for 2S to 4S LiPo- and LiFePo-batteries using EHR balancing
connector. Please refer to drawing (also like that on charger) for correct polarity, basically minus (black wire) is always on the
far right side of the plug as shown on drawing.
The balancer equalises the cells, during charge- and balance-function, which results in higher performance and higher cycle-
life.
Caution:
Avoid incorrect connection as in the worst case this may result in damage to the battery and/or charger!
As known from LRP, the programme structure is logical and intuitive, therefore most users can familiarise with the usage and
functions without even reading the manual, but it is obviously strongly recommended to read this manual in order to achieve
maximum performance from the PulsarTouch and make best use of all of it‘s great features.
You can either use your finger or the included plastic pen to use the touchscreen, make sure you only use very light pressure
to activate the functions as too high pressure may damage the display!
