2. Battery Charging mode
The RD6006 and RD6012 have their own battery charging function to facilitate the
charging of batteries and accumulators. To do so, close the negative pole of the bat-
tery with the black port and the positive pole with the green port. The battery charg-
ing function can detect when a battery is connected by changing the battery symbol
on the display from blue to red. You have to set the charging end voltage and charg-
ing current using "I-SET" and "V-SET". You can start and stop charging with ON/OFF.
IMPORTANT! You have to do this according to your battery otherwise there is danger
to life! As a safety measure you can use the temperature sensor of the power supply
unit to observe the behaviour of the battery. With the temperature sensor the device
is able to stop the charging process when the battery has reached a temperature of
80 °C. As the battery approaches the final charge voltage, the device will reduce the
charge current until it falls below 10 mA and it will stop charging. The device indicates
charging with a green symbol of the battery.
Note that NO batteries with a protection circuit are suitable for charging with the
RD6006 or RD6012.
It is your responsibility to make the correct settings to charge the battery according
to the manufacturer's specifications, which can be obtained from the battery manu-
facturer. We strongly recommend that you also use the temperature sensor and a
suitable protective equipment.
Do not charge damaged batteries. The device and the batteries must be supervised
during the charging process, in case of doubt stop charging.
Incorrect settings or faulty batteries pose a considerable risk of injury or death from
heat, fire, burns, explosion and electric shock.
3. Main Page Output Voltage and Output Current Setting
Press 'I-SET' button to set the output current value, you can use the encoder to adjust
the output value directly, press the direction button to move the cursor.
Of course, you can use the keypad to set the value and press 'ENTER' to confirm.
If you set the wrong value, you can press the encoder to cancel.
Press 'V-SET' button to set the output voltage value, the operation method is similar
to the output current setting. Press 'SHIFT'+ 'I-SET' button or 'SHIFT'+ 'V-SET' button
to set the value of overcurrent protection (OCP) and overvoltage protection (OVP).
The overcurrent protection switches o the output of the unit as soon as the current
set at OCP is exceeded at the output. The overvoltage protection switches o the out-
put of the device as soon as the voltage at the output exceeds the voltage set on OVP.
