Press DOWN to SAFETY TIMER - Adjustable between 20 and 300 minutes. An alarm will sound during charging after selected
time interval during charging has elapsed. Set the time for about 30% longer than it should take your pack to charge.
Keep in mind that a badly balanced pack may take longer than normal to charge, so don’t set this too tight. A Lipo pack at 1C
rate might take as much as 120 minutes to charge, so timer of about 160~180 minutes may be appropriate. Note that while
other safety checks based on capacity and voltage are also working for you, charging should never be left unattended in any
case.
Press DOWN to TCS CAPACITY – For LiPo and LiIon battery types Terminal Capacity Selection is available from 50% to 100% of
pack capacity. During the charge, the EOS 0610i DUOII will continually estimate capacity in the pack, and either terminate the
charge or sound a signal tone (and continue charging) when your selected TCS percentage is reached, depending on the value
for you set for TCS END ACTION. See end of manual for more details on TCS.
Press DOWN to TCS END ACTION – Values are CONTINUE and STOP. CONTINUE is the default. In this case, when TCS% is
reached for settings 50% to 95%, the charger will “beep” 10 times, but continue charging to 100% until stopped. If TCS
ACTION is set to STOP, the charger will stop charging at that TCS setting and - if balancing is complete – then give COMPLETE
(END) Buzzer according to you buzzer settings. (or continue till balanced, then give End buzzer).
Press DOWN to DSCH CURRENT – If you’ll be discharging, you’ll set the discharge current here. Note that depending on the voltage of the
pack, the current you set may not be obtainable if the total Volts multiplied by Current (A) exceeds 50W.
Press DOWN to DSCH VOLTAGE per cell – Lithium types should only be discharged for storage, so we recommend that you use STORE
MODE for that. Otherwise, you need to be sure of the V/cell setting yourself, according to your battery type. Over-discharge can damage packs.
Pressing DOWN for a last time returns you to the ‘Memory Select’ screen.
At this point, see flowchart (7) LiIo / LiPo / A123 BATTERY START. Holding the ENTER key pressed down for two seconds
or more will start the CHARGE, STORE, or DISCHARGE process (select with UP/DOWN Keys) for LiPo, LiIon, and A123 types, no
matter where in the MEMORY (CHARGE) screens you may be. Additionally- if balancer circuit is connected – SYNC MODE is
available via ENTER (short push) and UP/DOWN arrow keys.
With “CHARGE START SOLO MODE” selected, hold down ENTER for 2 seconds. Hold down ENTER again, the charger will then
read **BATTERY CHECK** and then ask you to confirm the number of cells in your battery pack. Press ENTER (short press) for
a final time to start charging. (if balancer is connected, a 10-second countdown occurs, then auto start).
Note: If the Lithium-based pack is NOT connected to the balancer port, the Charger will read NO BALANCER. We strongly
recommend using the balancer at ALL times.
Holding down ENTER (2 seconds) at any time while charging a battery will then STOP charging (or discharging, etc…).
MODE SELECTIONS
Before Charging/Discharging/Store are in progress, Pressing the MODE button will scroll you through the MEMORY, DATA VIEW,
BALANCER and USER SETUP screens, allowing you to change parameters as you like (see charts for each)
During Charging/Discharging/Store , Pressing the MODE button will scroll you through the MEMORY, BALANCER and QUICK
VIEW Data screens. (see chart (9) OPERATION and FINISH DISPLAY)
* MEMORY – Short-press UP/DOWN buttons to scroll through the data presented. At the top memory screen (showing C: A),
you can press ENTER and UP/DOWN to change charge current if desired. You can also LONG-press (2-seconds) UP button to
see each screen presented in turn at two-second intervals.
* BALANCER – UP/DOWN buttons to see detailed information on cell balancing, and individual cell voltages
* QUICK VIEW – Shows the following useful info on a single screen:
CAPACITY mAh/Ah (Charged in “C” or Discharged out “D”)
INPUT VOLTAGE (Vi)
PACK VOLTAGE (V)
CHARGE CURRENT (A)
CAPACITY (%) of the pack at current time.
---- DATA VIEW
Press the MODE button until you reach the DATA VIEW screen. (see chart (3) Data View Display)
Use the UP or DOWN key to scroll through the various information presented:
*INPUT – Current input voltage from the power supply
*OUTPUT – The output voltage of charger while charging, or pack voltage of the battery while connected but not charging
*BAT. RES – The internal resistance (IR) of the battery pack in mΩ.
(IR value appears some seconds after charge is started, and will become more accurate as charge progresses)
*TEMP and PEAK TEMP – Current Temp, and Peak Temp recorded during the charge (requires optional temp sensor)
*CHARGE TIME, CHARGE CURRENT
*PEAK CHARGE VOLTAGE
(see chart for other information screens available under Data View)
