SPECIAL FEATURES
Optimized operating software
When charging or discharging, it has an “AUTO” function that sets the feeding current automatically.
Especially for Lithium batteries, it can prevent the over-charging can lead to an explosion by users fault.
Every program in the unit is controlled with mutual links and communication for every possible error so it
introduces a maximum safety. These can be set at users option.
Internal independent lithium battery balancer
It has an individual-cell-voltage balancer inside. So it does not need any balancer separately when charging
Lithium batteries (Lilon/LiPo/LiFe) for cell voltage balancing.
Balancing individual cells battery discharging
It also can monitor and balance individual cells of the Lithium battery pack during the discharge process. If
the voltage of any one cell varies abnormally, the process will be stopped with the error message.
Adaptable to various types of Lithium battery
It can accept three types of Lithium batteries: Lilon, LiPo and LiFe. They have different characteristics by
their chemistry. You can select any one of them that you are going to process before the job. For their
specifications, refer to “Warnings and safety notes” section.
Lithium battery “Fast” and “Storage” mode
You can charge Lithium battery for special purposes. “Fast” charge reduces the charging time of Lithium
battery and “Storage” mode controls the final voltage of the battery to be suit for long time storage.
Maximum safety
• Delta-peak sensitivity: The automatic charge termination program works on the principle of the Delta¬peak
voltage detection (NiCd/NiMH). When the battery's voltage exceeds the threshold, the process
• will be terminated automatically.
• Auto-charge current limit: When charging NiCd or NiMH at “AUTO” current mode, you can set the upper
limit of charge current to avoid from high current charging. This is very useful when charging the low
impedance and small capacity NiMH battery in “AUTO” mode.
• Capacity limit: The charging capacity always calculated by multiple of the charging current and time. If
the charging capacity exceeds the limit the process will be terminated automatically when you set the
maximum value.
• Temperature limit: The temperature of the battery on charging will rise by its internal chemical reaction.
If you set the limit of temperature the process will be expired forcibly when the limit has reached.
* This function is available by connecting optionnal temperature probe, which is not included in our
package
• Processing time limit: You can also restrain the maximum process time to prevent from any possible defect.
• Input power monitor: To protect the car battery using as DC input power from being damaged the
voltage of it always monitored. If it drops below the lower limit the process will be ended automatically.
Data store/load
For users convenience it can store maximum 5 data of different batteries. You can establish the data
contains program setting of the battery to charge or discharge continually. These data can be called out
at any time you need and the process can be executed without program setting.
Cyclic charging/discharging

GENERAL NOTES ON OPERATING IT
Charging
A specific quantity of electrical energy is fed into the battery during charge process. The charge quantity
is calculated by multiplying charge current by charge time. The maximum permissible charge current
varies according to the battery type or its performance, and can be found in the information provided by
the battery manufacturer. It is only allowed to charge batteries at rates higher than the standard charge
current if they are expressly stated to be capable of quick-charge.
Connect the battery to charge to output terminal of the charger using suitable charge lead. They are red,
positive (+) and black, negative (-). Since the charger cannot detect the difference between the internal
resistance of the battery pack, cable resistance and connector transfer resistance, the first requirement
if the charger to work properly is that the charge lead should be of adequate conductor cross-section. And
also high-quality connectors (normally gold-contact type) must be fitted to both ends.
Refer to the information provided by the battery manufacturer regarding charging methods, and verify the
recommended charge current and charge time. Especially for Lithium batteries, you have to follow the
charge instruction provided by the manufacturer strictly.
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack arbitrarily.
You have to pay attention to verify the capacity and the voltage of the Lithium battery pack. It may be
composed of parallel and series connection mixed. In parallel link the capacity of the battery pack is multiplied
by the number of cells but the voltage remains same. That kind of voltage imbalance causes a fire or explosion
during charge process. We recommend you compose the Lithium battery pack in series only.
Discharge
The typical purpose of discharge is to determine the residual capacity of the battery, or to lower the voltage
of battery to a defined level. When you discharge the battery you also have to pay attention on the process
same as charging. To avoid the battery becoming deep-discharged, set the final discharge voltage correctly.
Lithium batteries should not be deep-discharged to lower than the minimum voltage, as this leads to a rapid
loss of capacity or a total failure. Generally, you do not need to discharge Lithium battery voluntarily.
Some rechargeable batteries are said to have a memory effect. If they are partly used and recharged
before the whole charge is drawn out, they “remember” this and next time will only use that part of their
capacity. This is a “memory effect”. NiCd and NiMH batteries are said to suffer from memory effect.
They prefer complete cycles; fully charge then use until empty, do not recharge before storage—allow
them to self-discharge during storage. NiMH batteries have less memory effect than NiCd.
The Lithium battery prefers a partial rather than a full discharge. Frequent full discharges should be
avoided if possible. Instead, charge the battery more often or use a larger battery.
The brand-new NiCd battery pack is partially useful with its capacity until it has been subjected to 10
or more charge cycles in any case. The cyclic process of charge and discharge will lead to optimize the
capacity of battery pack.

INITIAL PARAMETER SET UP (USERS SET UP)
As default this charger will be set to
typical user settings when it is connected
to a 12V battery for the first time.The
screen displays the following information
in sequence and the user can change the
parameter on each screen.
If you need to alter the parameter value in
the program,press"Start/Enter"key to make
it blink then change the value with"INC"or
"DEC"key. The value will be stored by
pressing"Start/Enter" key once.

The screen displays the nominal voltage of Lithium battery. There are three
kinds of Lithium battery; LiFe(3.3V), Lilo(3.6V) or LiPo(3.7V). This is very
important so you have to check the battery carefully and set it up correctly. If it
is different from correct value the battery can explode during charge process.
It recognizes the cell count of Lithium battery automatically at the beginning
of charge or discharge process to avoid from erroneous setting by user. But
deeply discharged battery can be perceived incorrectly. To prevent the error,
you can set the time term to verify the cell count by the processor. Normally, 15 seconds are enough to
perceive the cell count correctly. For the battery of larger capacity, you may extend the time term. But if
you set the time term too long for the battery of smaller capacity, the charge or discharge process can be
finished within the time term with the erroneous cell count. This may cause the fatal result. If the processor
recognizes the cell count incorrectly at the beginning of charge or discharge process, you may extend the
time. Otherwise, you had better use with the default value.
This shows the trigger voltage for automatic charge termination of NiMH and
NiCd battery. The effective value ranges from 5 to 20mV per cell. If the trigger
voltage is set higher, there is a danger of overcharging the battery; if it is set
lower, there is a possibility of premature termination. Please refer the technical specification of the battery.
(NiCd default: 12mV, NiMH default: 7mV)
(OPTIONAL) You can select the function of 3-pin port at left side of the unit. It
can be used temperature sensor port or USB port, selected at this screen. If
the port is assigned as a temp. port, an optional temperature probe contacting
the surface of battery can be used. When it is selected as an USB port, you can
link the charger to your PC via an optional USB cable. This can utilize the optional software that can show
you the charge process at PC.
(OPTIONAL) You can set the maximum temperature at which the charger should
allow battery to reach during charge. Once a battery reaches this temperature
during charge, the process will be terminated to protect the battery.
The battery is on the cyclic process of charge and discharge can often become
warm after charge or discharge period. The program can insert a time delay to
occur after each charge and discharge process to allow the battery adequate
time to cool down before being subjected to the next process. The value ranges from 1 to 60 minutes.
When you start a charge process, the integral safety timer automatically starts
running at the same time. This is programmed to prevent overcharge the
battery if it proves to be faulty, or if the termination circuit cannot detect the
battery full. Please refer the statement in below to calculate the time setting.
This program sets the maximum charge capacity that will be supplied to the
battery during charge. If the delta-peak voltage is not detected nor the safety
timer expired by any reason, this feature will automatically stop the process at
the selected capacity value.

LITHIUM BATTERY (LILO/LIPO/LIFE) PROGRAM
These programs are only suitable for charging and discharging Lithium batteries with a nominal voltage
of 3.3V, 3.6V and 3.7V per cell. These batteries need to adopt different charge technique is termed a
constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) method. The charge current varies according to the
battery capacity and performance. The final voltage of charge process is also very important; it should be
precisely matched with the charade voltage of the battery. They are 4.2V for LiPo, 4.1V for Lilo, and 3.6V
for LiFe. The charge current and nominal voltage as for cell count set on the charge program must always
be correct for the battery to be charged.
When you are willing to alter the parameter value in the program, press Start/Enter key to make it blink
then change the value with INC or DEC key. The value will be stored by pressing Start/Enter key once.
SAFE TIMER CALCULATION

this number of minuters as the value for safety timer setting. If the charger stopped at this time thresold,
about 140% of the capacity will have been fed into the battery.
For example :
Capacity Current Safety time
2000 mAh 2.0A (2000/2.0=1000)/11.9=84 minutes
3300 mAh 3.0A (3300/3.0=1000)/11.9=92 minutes
1000 mAh 1.2A (1000/1.2=1000)/11.9=70 minutes

VOLTAGE BALANCING AND MONITORING DURING THE DISCHARGE
The processor monitors the voltage of individual cells during “storage-mode” and “discharge” of Lithium
battery pack. It tries to normalize the voltages to be equal. For this feature, the individual plug of the
battery pack should be connected to the individual port of the charger.
If the voltage of any one or more cells varies abnormally during the procedure, it terminates the process
forcibly with the error message. If this happens, the battery pack contains the bad cell, or the bad
connection of the cable or plug. You can easily know which one cell is bad by pressing INC button at time
of showing the error message.
The processor found that the voltage of one of the cell in the Lithium battery
pack is too low.
In this case, the 4th cell is bad. If there happens the connection-break of the
cable or plug, the voltage value may show zero.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
• Amps(A): The unit of measure for charge or discharge electric current. The program of the charger will
show most of the current in amps(A) at its LCD screen.
• Milli-amps(mA) : The electric current, being amps(A) multiplied by 1000 and noted as “mA”. So 2.0A
is the same as 2000mA (2.0*1000). Or, to convert mA to amps, divide the mA number by 1000. So
200mA is the same as 0.2A. If a current value is below 1.0A, the LCD screen of the charger will still
show the current in amps, not milli¬amps. For example, a current of 600mA will be displayed as 0.6A,
and a current of 100mA will actually be shown as 0.1A.
• Capacity, milli-amp hours (mAh), and amp-hours (Ah): Charge energy stored by a battery is called
capacity, which is defined as how much current a battery can supply constantly over one hour of time.
Most hobby batteries are rated for capacity in “mAh” or milliamp hours. A 650mAh battery can deliver
650mA of current for one hour (650mA*1hr=650mAh). The batteries of very large capacity, such as
lead-acid(Pb) batteries, are usually rated in “Ah” or amp-hours. A “12V 60Ah” car battery can deliver 60
amps of current for one hour (60Ax*1hr=60Ah).
• Nominal voltage(V) : The nominal voltage of the battery pack can be determined as follows :
-NiCd or NiMH: multiply the total number of cells in the pack by 1.2. A 8-cell pack will have a nominal
voltage of 9.6 volts (8*1.2).
-LiPo: multiply the total number of cells in the pack by 3.6. A 3-cell Lilo wired in series will have a nominal
voltage of 11.1 volts (3*3.7).
-Lilo: multiply the total number of cells in the pack by 3.6. A 2-cell Lilo wired in series will have a nominal
voltage of 11.1 volts (3*3.6).
-LiFe: multiply the total number of cells in the pack by 3.3. A 4-cell Lilo wired in series will have a nominal
voltage of 11.1 volts (4*3.3).
• If the nominal voltage of the battery is not printed on the battery’s label, consult your battery manufacturer
or supplier. Do not guess the rated voltage of battery.
• “C”-rating: Capacity is also referred to as the “C” rating. Some battery suppliers recommend charge and
discharge currents based on the battery “C” rating. A battery’s “1C” current is the same number as the
battery’ s rated capacity number, but noted in mA or amps. A 600mAh battery has a 1C current value of
600mA, and a 3C current value of (3*600mA) 1800mA or 1.8A. The 1C current value for a 3200mAh
battery would be 3200mA(3.2A).
