TERMINAL VOLTAGE CONTROL (TVC)
This is used to set the upper voltage limit during the charge
process, the value is set per cell. Press the + buttont to move
the arrow to the discharge voltage prompt. Press the START/
ENT button to highlight the value prompt. Use + or – to
increase or decrease the discharge voltage.
Press START/ENT to conrm.
SETTING A TVC VALUE HIGHER THAN
WHAT IS RECOMMENDED BY YOUR
BATTERY’S MANUFACTURER CAN
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR BATTERY.
TRICKLE CHARGE RATE
When the charge process ends, current is fed to the battery
to compensate for the natural discharge. This feature is used
to set the trickle current rate. The function can be turned
OFF or adjusted between 50 to 300mA.
DELTA PEAK SETTLING
The automatic charge program utilizes Delta Peak voltage
detection. When the battery’s voltage exceeds the threshold,
the charge process is terminated automatically.
The Delta Peak value adjustable range is 3mV/Cell to
15mV/C. We recommend you use 10mV/Cell on a NiMH
battery and 15mV/Cell on a NiCd battery.
STARTING THE CHARGE / DISCHARGE PROCESS
Once all the parameters are set, you are ready to execute the process. Depending on the type of
battery you have chosen, you will have the available choices listed on the following page:
BEFORE SELECTING AN OPERATION, IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU KNOW THE TYPE OF
BATTERY YOU ARE WORKING WITH AND WHAT THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDATIONS
ARE FOR CHARGING OR DISCHARGING. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURERS
RECOMMENDATIONS CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE BATTERY AND POSSIBLE
EXPLOSION OR FIRE.
