This program is only suitable for charging Pb (lead-acid) batteries with nomi-
nal voltages of 2 to 20V. A Pb (lead-acid) battery is signi cantly di erent from
NiCd/NiMH batteries. Pb batteries can only deliver current lower in comparison
to their capacity. The same restriction applies to the charging process. Conse-
quently, the optimum charge current can only be 1/10 of the capacity. A Pb bat-
tery cannot be used for fast charging, so please follow the instructions provided
by the battery manufacturer.
The X1 o ers the following NiCD/NiMH charge modes: Charge and Discharge.
