Discharge Mode

The Analyzer X3 and X6 is capable of a single discharge cycle by selecting Discharge Mode.

In the normal discharge mode a constant pre-stored load current (C/5) is applied to the battery until 1volt per cell has been reached. The result of the measurement is displayed as a percent of capacity. The capacity of a battery is defined as the amount of current over time. So the discharge result shown by the Analyzer X3 and the X6 is also given in mAh, the amount of current discharged over time.

The rate at which the battery is discharge is called the (C) rate. 1C is the discharge current amount of the battery divided by battery capacity. For example: the capacity of a battery is 1200mAh and the discharge current is 1200 mA, 1C. If the discharge current is reduced to 120 mA, then the C rate is 0.1C.

Use the following procedure to select the Discharge mode:

You are now ready to service a battery. . Placing the appropriate “adapter cup” in the analyzer will allow

you to service an OEM battery. The cup contains pre-stored data e.g. chemistry type, capacity, impedance, charge rate and discharge rate for 4 battery types.

There is a fifth data position in the “cup” reserved for user defined information during the Learn Mode. See “Learn Mode” for more information.

1. Place a battery into the “adapter cup”. The display “Press Function to Proceed” should be displayed.

The analyzer should detect your battery and give chemistry and capacity options as the function button is

Pushed. See note below, should the aforementioned not occur. *

*Note: If you do not see your chemistry during this process, remove the battery and reinsert it after pressing the function button momentarily. This operation will place you in the “Learn Mode”. See “Learn Mode” on how To proceed.

2.Scroll through the menu until your battery appears (using the Function Button). When your battery appears, stop pressing the Function Button and wait until the display stop blinking. An acknowledgement beep will be heard and the display will also acknowledge your selection.

3.The display will now show a menu of “Test options”as you press the function button e.g. QUICK TEST,

CYCLE/AUTO/CONDITION, Dis-charge,Charge and Impedance Test. This sequence only occurs for Station (1). For Stations (2) and (3) you will see the following sequence: CYCLE/AUTO/CONDITION, DIS-CHRG BATTERY and CHARGE BATTERY

As you press the Function button the display should scroll through the menu of “Tests”. When the test you have select appears in the display, just simply stop pressing the function button and wait until the display stop blinking. Once the display stops blinking, an acknowledgement beep will be heard along with a visual of the test you Selected in the display.

4.The test you selected will now start. Results will be displayed upon completion and if you have the optional printer attached a print out will also be printed upon test completion.
