Charge
select: press key ... charge
Press the button quickly to switch from the default charge to
1-+ charge; to select 3-+ charge, press the button again.
These two modes are particularly useful for “training” NiMH batteries in that the battery is
automatically charged and discharged three times.
Note:
If you select this option, each time you plug the battery into the charger, the following
message will be displayed: "ABCDE 1-+ charge or 3-+ charge".
Five seconds later the following message will appear, regardless of whether you press the button:
Limit charging current
select: press key ... | max: 2.5 A
In this option, each short press of the button reduces the charging current (starting from the 2.5 A
default value) by 0.4 A, whereby the cycle starts over again the next time the button is pressed after
you reach 2.1 A. This mode is useful for fully charging very old batteries.
Five seconds later the following message will appear, regardless of whether you press the button:
Limit charged capacity
select: press key ... Max Ah: 20 Ah
To increase the maximum charged capacity in 0.5 Ah increments, press the button repeatedly
(up to the 20 Ah default setting). Limiting charged capacity helps to improve the reliability of
batteries whose quality is unknown (this does not apply to Lupine batteries). Here too the program
advances at five second intervals, regardless of whether the button is pressed. The device now
reverts automatically to the main menu and can be used for charging.
Helpful hint: If you do not wish to change any setting, simply refrain from pressing the button
while the program progress through the various menu items. This is also the easiest way to
restore submenu default settings.
