CYCLE

The cycle mode allows the user to both charge and discharge a battery a number of
times, in order to bring it back to peak performance.

Dependant on the final charge state required, you have the options to discharge then
charge (D>C) or charge then discharge (C>D) the pack. In addition, the number of
cycles and the delay between charging or discharging can be set.

n.b. When cycling a battery, the charger will use Automatic charge and discharge

currents.

To start the Cycling you pack, hold the ‘Enter’ button down for 2 seconds.

‘MAX. CAPACITY’ – MAXIMUM CAPACITY

The maximum capacity setting is used to terminate a charge if the charger exceeds
the selected percentage of the battery capacity.

‘PEAK DELAY’ – START PEAK DELAY

When charging a NiCd or NiMH type pack using delta-peak cut-off, the charger is
looking for the pack voltage to peak and then drop off. However, some packs can
give false peaks soon after the charge is commenced. Therefore, the start peak delay
function overrides the peak detection for a selected number of minutes to stop any
false peaks being detected. The default setting is 3 minutes.

‘TRI. CURRENT’ - TRICKLE CHARGE CURRENT

With NiCd and NiMH type batteries, it is recommended that the pack is trickle
charged after the main charge has completed, so that the battery is kept fully
charged and is ready to be used. Therefore, we suggest setting the trickle charge
current to around 10% of the pack capacity.

SAFETY TIMER

The safety timer is used to terminate a charge if it is not completed within the
selected time.
