INTRODUCTION WARRANTY AND SERVICE INTRODUCTION Warranty and Service Thank you for purchasing the B6 Twins Balance Charger by ImaxRC.This product is a rapid charger with a high performance microprocessor and specialized operating software. Please read this entire operating manual completely and attentively before using this product, as it covers a wide range of information on operating and safety.
WARNING AND ERROR INFORMATION The voltage is higher than which is set. Please check the number of cells in the battery pack. Voltage of one cell in the battery pack is too low, please check the voltage of each cell. Voltage of one cell in the battery pack is too low, please check the voltage of each cell. SPECIAL FEATURES SPECIAL FEATURES Optimized Operating software B6 Twins features the so-called AUTO function that set the feeding current during the process of charging or discharging.
WARNING AND ERROR INFORMATION SPECIAL FEATURES Maximum safety WARNING AND ERROR INFORMATION Delta-peak sensitivity: The automatic charge termination program based on the principle of the Delta-peak voltage detection. When the battery's voltage exceeds the threshold, the process will be terminated automatically. B6 Twins incorporates a variety of functions for the systems to varify processes and the state of the electronics.
VARIOUS INFORMATION IN THE PROGRAM It comes to the final voltage when the program ended. SPECIAL FEATURES Cyclic charging/discharging 1 to 5 cyclic and continuous process of charge＞discharge or discharge＞charge is operable for battery refreshing and Balancing to stimulate the battery's activitly. 3-pin connector is selected to be the USB port. The external temperature is displayed when the temperature probe is used. Present input voltage.
LOAD DATA PROGRAM LOAD DATA PROGRAM This program is to load the data stored at the 'save data' program. Press START/ENTER key to make the data field blink and press INC or DEC for more than 3 seconds load the data. LCD screen AC input power port (AC 100-240V, 50/60HZ) Choose the data number you want to call back. The data you want to call back will displayed. Output charge lead 4mm banana plug Input power cable 11-18V DC Loading the data.
DATA STORAGE PROGRAM LITHUM POLYMER BALANCE CHARGE PROGRAM CONNECTION DIAGRAM DATA STORAGE PROGRAM For your convenience, B6 Twins has a date storage and load program. It can store five battery date representing the respective specifications of batteries. You can call back the data when charging or discharging without setting up the program again. Press START/ENTER key to make it blink, and use INC or DEC to set up the parameter.
WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES These warnings and safety notes are particularly important. Please follow the instructions For maximum safety; Otherwise the charger and the battery can be damaged or at worst it can cause a fire. Never leave the charger unattended when it is connected to its power supply. If any malfunction is found, TERMINATE THE PROCESS AT ONCE and refer to the operation manual. Keep the charger well away from dust, damp, rain, heat, direct sunshine and vibration.
CHARGE/DISCHARGE AND DISCHARGE/CHARGE CYCLE OF NiCd/NiMH BATTERY CHARGE/DISCHARGE AND DISCHARGE/CHARGE CYCLE OF NiCd/NiMH BATTERY You can set up sequence on the left and the number of cycles on the right. You can balance, refresh and break-in the battery with this function. You can set a temporary cool-off procedure in the user's setting. Range of the cycle number is 1-5. Press BATT TYPE/STOP key to stop program, you can press START/ENTER key to alter charge current.
WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES To avoid short circuit between the charge lead always connect the charge cable to the charger first, then connect the battery. Reverse the sequence when disconnecting. Do not connect more than one battery pack to this charger at any one time. Never attempt to charger or discharger the following types of batteries. DISCHARGE OF NiCd/NiMH BATTERY The screen shows the real-time status. Press BATT TYPE/STOP key to end the program. The sound will emitted to indicates the end of program.
WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES VOLTAGE BALANCING AND MONITORING IN THE DISCHARGE PROCESS VOLTAGE BALANCING AND MONITORING IN THE DISCHARGE PROCESS The processor monitors voltage of each cell when the battery packs are during its 'storage' and 'discharging' process. The achieve this feature, plug each battery to the charger individually. If voltage of any cell is abnormal, B6 Twins will show error massage and terminate the program forcibly.
STORAGE CONTROL OF LITHIUM BATTERY WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES Always refer to the manual by the battery manufacturer pertaining to charging methods, recommended charging current and charging time. Especially, the Lithium battery should be charged according the charging instruction provided by the manufacturer strictly. At this screen, you can set up the current and voltage of the battery pack. Charging and discharging will make the batteries come to the voltage level of 'storage' state.
FAST CHARGING OF LITHIUM BATTERY FAST CHARGING OF LITHIUM BATTERY Charging current will become lower when it progress to the end of charging. A specific CV process will be reduced to end the charging process earlier. In fact, the charging current will goes to 1/5 when the charging process comes to 1/10. Charging capacity will be a little smaller than normal charging, but charging time will be shortened accordingly. You can set up the charging current and voltage of the battery pack.
WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES As default this charger will be set to typical user setting when it is connected a 12V battery for the first time. The screen displays the following information in sequence and the user can charge the parameter on each screen. If you need to alter the parameter value in the program, press 'Start/Enter' key to make it blink then change the value with 'INC' or 'DEC' key. The value will be stored by pressing 'Start/Enter' key once.
WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES CHARGING OF LITHIUM BATTERY CHARGING OF LITHIUM BATTERY 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 current user set. After setting the current and voltage, press START/ENTER key for more than 3 seconds to start the process. (charge current: .1-5.0A, voltage: 1-5V). This displays the number of cells you set up and the processor detects.
WARNING AND SAFETY NOTES There is a 3-pin port on the left of the charger used as USB interface of temperature sensor port. If the screen displays temperature, you can use the optional temperature probe to connect to the surface of the battery. If it is set as the USB port, you can connect the charger to your PC through the optional USB cable to monitor the charging process through optional software. The maximum temperature of the battery can be set during the charge process.
