F6 4-Channel DC Smart Charger
Task Settings and Notes
Operation and Setup
The F6 smart charger operates in a series charging mode. When connecting to the
battery, the battery output cable must be connected. For lithium batteries, it is strongly
recommended to connect the balance ports for balanced charging so as to ensure that the
charger can accurately monitor the voltage of each cell and balance the cells having poor
consistency. When charging in unbalanced mode (without connecting to the battery balance
port), the charger will have a warning before starting the task.
Charge Function
When charging is in progress, the screen is marked in orange ; the screen turns green or
blue when charging is completed. When the charging is completed, the cell voltage differ-
ence is less than 20mV, and the screen turns green. If user needs to use it urgently, he can
stop charging it. If charging is not stopped at that time, the charger will continue to balance
the battery. When the voltage difference is less than 10mV, the screen will turn blue. After it
turned blue, the charger will still continue to accurately balance the battery.
After having the battery charged, the voltage will drop back due to the difference in perfor-
mance and it is normal. As the number of charging increases, the performance of the battery
gradually declines, such a phenomenon will become obvious. Charging with a larger
charging current will also cause the voltage to fall back after a full charge, which is more
obvious.
Tips: lf you are charging batteries outdoors, and you want to finish it quickly, you can stop
charging when you see the appearance of green state. When there is enough time, and you
hope that the battery can achieve a better balance, ,then wait for the blue color to appear,
or wait for a while more after the blue appear to get more accurate effect.
Discharge Function
The discharge function can discharge the battery. It is recommended to connect the balance
port for discharge, which is faster and the detection of the end of discharge more accurate.
Due to the limitation of the internal discharge power, the discharge process may be slower,
which is normal.
Power supply Function
When the power function is selected, the entire charger is equivalent to an adjustable power
supply, the voltage of the output port and the output power can be set . The output port volt-
age can be set between 5V~ 24V, and the output power can be set between 100W ~ 300W.
The output port wires must not be stuck together to avoid causing any short circuit and
cannot be overloaded so that it burns the machine.
