IMPRES 2 or IMPRES Battery Initialization
For full IMPRES 2 or IMPRES functionality, a new IMPRES 2 or
IMPRES battery must be initialized by the charger. The charger
automatically detects the new IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery, and
automatically starts Initialization. Initialization is the first Calibration /
Reconditioning of an IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery. This is a two-
phase process. The first phase is Battery Discharge, indicated by a
Steady Amber LED. The second phase is full charge, eventually
indicated by a Steady Green LED. This process may take up to
12 hours or more to complete, depending on the state of charge and
capacity of the battery. Interruption of either phase delays Initialization
until the next charging opportunity.
IMPRES 2 or IMPRES Pocket-to-Pocket
When charging IMPRES 2 or IMPRES batteries, the IMPRES 2 or
IMPRES charger records charging information within battery memory.
If the IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery is removed from one IMPRES 2 or
IMPRES charger pocket and, within 30 minutes, inserted into another
or the same IMPRES 2 or IMPRES charger pocket, then charging
resumes at the point where charging was interrupted. This feature
prevents battery over-charging and minimizes the loss of cycle life.
This is especially important when charging Nickel batteries.
Automatic IMPRES 2 or IMPRES Calibration/Reconditioning
The IMPRES 2 charger automatically assesses the condition of an
IMPRES 2 or IMPRES battery. Based on this condition, the charger
automatically calibrates / reconditions the battery. Interruption of either
the discharge phase or the full charge phase delays Calibration until
the next charging opportunity.
Calibration / Reconditioning may be enabled or disabled using
Reconditioning Switch. When disabled and the IMPRES 2 or IMPRES
battery requires Calibration / Reconditioning, the LED will indicate
Alternating Amber / Green at battery insertion and after the battery is
charged.
