Learn Mode
This mode when selected will allow a battery’s parameters to be created for new battery models.
A battery “Adapter Cup” holds a total of 5 battery profiles for parameter storage; four are preprogrammed with OEM information for a particular battery series. The fifth profile can be modified by the “Learn Mode”. During entry into the “Learn Mode”, Battery Chemistry, Capacity, and the number of Cells are prompted for data entry. Follow the Directions below to enter data for the Learn Mode.
