To edit the battery parameters, make sure the selection arrow is on the top line and press the ‘Enter’ button to highlight the memory number. Using the ‘Inc’ or ‘Dec’ buttons, the selected memory (0~19) can be changed. By default each memory is populated with a sample configuration, but these can be adjusted to suit your requirements.
Pressing the ‘Enter’ button again selects the Battery Type for the selected memory. The battery type can be changed using the ‘Inc’ and ‘Dec’ buttons.
The available battery types are:- |

NiCd | Nickel Cadnium | (1.2V/cell) | NiMH | Nickel Metal Hydride | (1.2V/cell) |
LiPo | Lithium Polymer | (3.7V/cell) | LiIo | Lithium Ion | (3.6V/cell) |
LiFe | Lithium Ferrite | (3.3V/Cell) | Pb | Lead Acid | (2V/cell) |
Pressing the ‘Enter’ button again highlights the number of cells (in series), which can be adjusted using the ‘Inc’ and ‘Dec’ buttons. If you are unsure of the number of cells in your battery pack, then this can be calculated by dividing the total battery voltage by the individual cell voltage.
Pressing the ‘Enter’ button again selects the battery capacity setting, then back to the line selection arrow.
It is very important that the correct battery parameters are entered, as incorrect values could cause the charger to seriously damage your battery which could result in a fire!
Pressing the ‘Dec’ button whilst nothing is highlighted moves the line selection arrow down.
