The left side of the first line shows the type of battery you
choose. The value on the left of the second line of the
charger is the current user set up. After setting the current
and voltage, press the Start/Enter key for more than 3
seconds to start the process (charge current: 0.1-10.0A,
voltage: 3.7-22.2V).
This displays the number of cells you set up and the
processor detects. “R” shows the number of cells detected
by the charger and “S” is the number of cells set by you at
the previous screen. If both numbers are identical, you can
start charging by pressing the Start/Enter button. If not,
press the Batt Type/Stop button to go back to the previous
screen. Carefully check the number of cells of the battery
pack before proceeding.
This screen shows the real-time status during the charge
process. Press the Batt Type/Stop key once to stop the
charge process.
This function is for balancing the voltage of Lithium-polymer battery cells while charging.
In the balance mode, the battery needs to have a balance lead to connect to the individual
balance port of the charger. You also need to connect the battery's power lead to the output
of the charger. Charging in this mode is different from the normal modes, because the
built-in processor monitors voltage of individual cells and controls the input current fed into
each cell to ensure each cell has equal voltage.
