7.2. Error Message Display

The fi rst screen shows that the processor detected the
voltage of one on the cells is too low.
The second screen shows the 4th cell was damaged. If
the cell is disconnected or not present the reading of the
voltage will be zero.

8. Charging NiCd or NiMH Batteries

There are two methods of charging NiCd and NiMH batteries:
Manual or Auto Mode. When in the NiMh or NiCd
Program Select screen you can change modes by pressing
the „START/ENTER" key until the current fi eld begins
fl ashing then press „INC" and „DEC" simultaneously to
switch between Auto and Manual Mode using the charge
current you set up. In the „auto mode", you should set the
upper limit of the charge current to avoid damage caused
by excessive charge current. This is especially important for
low quality batteries that have low resistance and capacity.
In the „manual mode" the charger will only charge at the
current you set.
This program is for charging NiCd/NiMH batteries typically
used in an R/C model application. Press the „START/ENTER"
key until the parameter you want to change begins to blink
then use the „INC" or „DEC" keys to change the value.
Press the „START/ENTER" key to store the setting.
This screen shows the real-time status of charging. You can
press the „BATT TYPE/STOP" key to stop the charge process.
