To Operate The DDM

1.Mount the battery to any position on the PowerCharger. When the PowerCharger has completed its communication with the battery, the ALTERNATING RED and GREEN LEDs will stop and the battery will begin its charge routine. The battery information and position number will appear on the LCD display. (If the battery is already on the charger, press the DISPLAY button until the position for the battery to be tested is displayed.)

2.Press the TEST button on the front panel of the PowerCharger. An audible alert will be heard and the LCD will display “HOLD TEST BUTTON 3 SECONDS TO SELECT A TEST”.

3.Hold the TEST button as the unit beeps 3 times. Release the button and the unit will indicate that the test mode has been selected. This Standard test will charge-discharge- charge the battery. Testing time is approximately 6-8 hours per battery.

4.The PowerCharger will ask if the 24 hour test is desired. If so, press the TEST button again to select this test. If not, the PowerCharger will automatically begin the standard test. A 24 Hour Test will charge the battery, let the battery sit for a 24 hour period, test the battery and then charge the battery. This test will determine how much capacity the battery will lose over a 24 hour period, when not being used.

The “RS-232 Accessory Port” on the PowerCharger transmits test information in ASCII format to any serial communications capable device, such as a terminal emulator or printer. A personal computer serial port can also be connected and by employing any number of communications applications (such as PROCOMM, or Windows “Terminal”) test data can be saved in file format as a permanent record of battery performance.

A serial data capable printer can be attached to the PowerCharger at the “RS-232 Accessory Port”, enabling the printout of hard copy of performance data from a tested battery. The following is a partial list of printer manufacturer models which are compatible with the PowerCharger:

•Okidata ML 184 Turbo

•Okidata ML 395

•Panasonic KX-P3200

Printers should be set for 1200 baud, 8 bit data length, one start bit, one stop bit. Consult the printer’s owners’ manual for setup instructions.

When testing is completed, the LCD Main Display will indicate “TEST DONE”. To display or print test results:

1.Press the DISPLAY button on the PowerCharger front panel to scroll to the Primary Position Display for the battery tested.

2.Press the TEST button. The LCD will display the capacity of the battery in ampere hours. If a printer is attached, performance data will simultaneously be printed out with all battery identification information. Consult your battery owners manual for warranty information and cell capacity ratings.

Remove battery only when test data has been viewed or printed. Test data is retained only while the battery is on the PowerCharger. Once battery is removed, data is no longer available.
