Li-Ion / Li-Po charge process
All Li-Ion battery packs have at least two or more contacts. For the charging
process you will need only the contacts with the positive pole and the nega-
tive pole. The positive and the negative pole are marked on the battery pack.
The other contacts are not needed for the charge process and should not be
used. The charger detects the polarity and the battery voltage automatically.
You do not have to worry about the right polarisation. You only have to make
sure of full contact. The Pixo C-USB has a short circuit protection for Li-Ion
batteries.
1. Fix the battery pack provisionally in the snap-in support. The battery pack
can be inserted from the horizontal left side, from the horizontal right side
or vertically to be fixed on top of the battery charger contacts. Position is
at 0 degree, 90 degrees or 180 degrees. The battery contacts must be lined
up in the direction of the battery charger contacts.
2. Battery charger contacts must be adjusted to the distance between
the battery pack positive and negative poles.
Caution! Move contacts very carefully! Use only a pen to move the
contacts! Do not use your fingers to move the contacts! Vio-
lence can damage the contacts! Damaged contacts are out of
guarantee!
3. Now you can definitely fix the battery pack on top of the battery charger
contacts. The battery pack does not have to lie on the floor plate of the
charger. A floating position is sufficient.
The steps 1 to 3 must be repeated for every battery type. The green LED will
be on or flashes if the battery is contacted correctly. If the green LED is off,
the battery pack is not contacted correctly. Please check the contacts once
more. If the contact is ok, you have inserted the wrong battery type or a faulty
battery pack. LED functions are explained in the list below.
The Battery Activator Function for deep discharged Li-Ion batteries works
with delay and starts the charge process after a longer test stage. If it does
not start after some minutes, check contacting and try again. Mostly all
deep discharged Li-Ion batteries can be revived this way.
