INTRODUCTION
The NOKOSER TC-X is a universal intelligent touching color screen tester with
charging and discharging functions compatible with almost all rechargeable
batteries on the market, thus eliminating the need to own several chargers. The
TC-X automatically identify 3.7V Li-ion, Ni-MH and Ni-CD batteries and
through clicking selection is also capable of charging LiFePO4 and 3.8V Li-ion
batteries. Intelligent circuitry selects the optimal charging mode (CC, CV and
dV/dt) for a given battery and each of the TC-X’s four microcomputer-controlled
charging slots then monitor and charger the battery independently. Furthermore,
an integrated digital touching color screen clearly displays all charging and
discharging parameters and progress while an intelligent automatic power-off
function terminates current when charging is completed.
The NOKOSER TC-X: the world’s most advanced fully-automatic touching color
screen tester with charging and discharging functions.
FEATURES
Microcomputer IC controls charging process
CC/CV/Trickle charging, to make sure the battery is full charged and won’t
be over charged
Four slots control independently by touching
Mixed charging mode
Color LCD instantly shows the charging process, battery voltage, current,
time, capacity, charge curve, discharge curve and internal resistance
Applicable batteries: Li-ion3.7V, Li-ion3.8V, LiFePO4, Ni-MH/CD
cylindrical chargeable batteries (Diameter: below 32mm, height:
34-73mm)
Input: AC100V-240V/ DC12V or DC12V 5A vehicle input
Charging, Discharging, Capacity Test and Internal resistance
Four types of charging current: 0.5A, 1.0A, 1.5A, 2.0A (According to
different capacity); discharging current: 0.5A

Reverse connection protection: When the battery is reversed, the
corresponding battery icon shows “Battery Error”.
Short circuit protection: When the battery is short circuit, the corresponding
battery icon shows “Battery Error”.
Activate automatically for Li-ion batteries with protection board, which are
instantaneous short circuit.
Intelligent temperature control:
The built-in cooling fan will be automatically open, when the internal
temperature of the machine rises to 60 degrees (Celsius) according to two
temperature sensors. When the temperature drops to 40 degrees (Celsius),
it stops automatically to ensure that the charger has a good working
condition. Avoid high capacity batteries overheated during the charge and
discharge process, causing spontaneous combustion or ignition.
Certified by ROHS, CE and FCC

interface. As the following figure shows:

⑬Voltage And Current Curve: Display the curve of selected slot battery. The
progress of the curve has an auto-scaling function. The yellow line is the voltage
curve and the red line is the current curve.
SETTINGS INTERFACE SPECIFICATION
Access multiple batteries and click the battery icon to switch curves. The selected
battery icon will turn red, and click the red battery icon again to enter the settings
interface. As the following figure shows:
①Shot: Displaying the current slot information (As pictured above )
②Operating Mode: Three modes: Charge, Discharge and Capacity Test; the
default mode is “Charge” (As pictured above )
③Current: Four kinds of currents can be selected, 0.5A, 1A, 1.5A and 2.0A;Li-ion
and LiFePO4’s default current is 1.0A; Ni-MH’s default current is 0.5A. (As
pictured above )
④Battery type: It will automatically identify Ni-MH and Li-ion batteries when the
batteries are in. When Li-ion batteries are detected, the Li-ion 3.7V charging
program is selected acquiescently; at this time Ni-MH/Cd option is red, which

cannot be selected. Putting a 3.8V Li-ion battery or LiFePO4 battery needs to
switch to the corresponding program Li-ion 3.8V or LiFePO4 manually. When
Ni-MH/Cd battery detected, the other three options are red, which cannot be
selected.
⑤Selected: The red border will appear when selected. (As pictured
above )

NOTE:
a. The selected icon will display a red border.
b. For Ni-MH batteries, cannot select the battery type; the other three battery type
icons are red that is not optional, when the Ni-MH battery is identified.
c. Ni-MH batteries’ charging current can only be selected when the battery is just
inserted; after selecting current, the current cannot be changed. So the other
current icons turn red that is not optional.

switched at any state.
INTERNAL RESISTANCE TEST INTERFACE
1Voltage: Displaying the voltage of the battery being tested.
2Internal Resistance: Displaying the internal resistance of the battery being
tested.
3Back key: Clicking the button to return to the main interface
Test Method:

Access to the matching test pens, the red one is connected to the positive pole
of the battery and the black one is connected to the negative pole of the battery.
Waiting for 3 seconds, display the actual voltage and internal resistance.
Note: After the charger is connected to the power supply, please do not test
what the battery is charging in the charger in the slot, to avoid damaging the
internal resistance test circuit caused by generated peak voltage of the bad
contact. It is recommended to test the battery resistance after removing the
battery. Test voltage range: 4.5VMAX, test internal resistance range:
0~255mΩ.
OPERATION METHOD
1) The AC side of the power adapter plugs into the outlet, and the output side
plugs into the charger.
2) Connected to the power, the company's logo is displayed on the color
screen in the form of the sea, which represents the warm greetings and
blessings to the global users.
After booting, display the following figure:

3) Access to the battery,if the users click the battery icon to enter the
Settings Interface within 8 seconds, the charger will work as the setting
parameters. Otherwise, it will automatically enter the default charging
mode. As the following figure shows:
4) Switching Battery information

After putting multiple batteries, click the battery icon which one the users
want to check; the battery icon turns red, and all the information at the top of
the main interface is the information of the selected slot.As shown above
5) Change settings:
If users want to change the setting, there are two ways:
①When putting the battery, waiting for 8 seconds, click the battery icon.
(Note: For Ni-MH batteries, charging current must be within 8 seconds. If
there is no operation within 8 seconds, then charge in the default current and
the current cannot be changed during charging.)
②During the charging process, select the battery icon which need to change
settings and click the battery icon again to enter the setting interface.
BATTERY ACTIVATION
For every installed battery, the TC-X will activate the battery by charging it.
Activate automatically for Li-ion batteries with protection board, which are
instantaneous short circuit. For the unprotected batteries’ voltage is above 0.2V,
the activation methods are as follows:
A. Put the batteries in the TC-X. (During the process, it is normal that Li-ion
batteries will be detected as Ni-MH batteries.)

B. When the voltage is above 2.75V, remove and reinstall the batteries and
charge again.
Note: The TC-X is not recommended for use with over-discharged (zero volt)
UNPROTECTED Li-ion batteries.
PRECAUTIONS
1.The TC-X is compatible with batteries of varying sizes, therefore when charging
certain batteries, manual adjustment of the battery’s position within the slot is
recommended, as to ensure solid contact is made between both sides of the battery
and the charging slot’s metal contact points.
2.The TC-X is restricted to charging 3.7V Li-ion, 3.8V Li-ion, LiFePO4,
Ni-MH/Ni-Cd rechargeable batteries only. Never use the TC-X with other types of
batteries as this could result in battery explosion, cracking or leaking, causing
property damage or personal injury.
3.The TC-X should only be used indoors or inside a motor vehicle and it cannot
be use or store in the water, high humidity, direct sunlight and low or high ambient
temperatures.
4.Do not disassemble or modify the charger.
5.Children under the age of 18 should be supervised by an adult when using the
TC-X.
6.The TC-X’s safe operating temperature is between 0℃-40℃.
7.Please use the TC-4 correctly according to this introduction manual to avoid
product damage and personal injury. Any problem arising from improper use of
TX-4, our company will not bear any legal responsibility and economic disputes.
