PAGE 3
This is the Battery Profile Window. This is where you can load and save different battery profiles. To the right of the screen is a little chart telling you the abbreviations of each battery type. They are NiCd for Nickel Cadmium, NiMH for Nickel Metal Hydride, LiPo for Lithium Polymer, LiOn for Lithium Ion, LiFe for Lithium Iron Phosphate (also know as A123), and Pb for Lead Acid or Gel Cell. This goes under “Cell Type”.

You can enter in a description, which is optional. This is there for your reference only, if you wish to note battery manufacturer, date bought, etc….

When charging a NiCd or NiMH, you will have a peak voltage reading next to the Power Supply display. This tells you what the highest voltage that you battery has reached: When charging a lithium-based battery the Max voltage will display.
PAGE 7
The Graph In this area you will see the total duration and real-time results of your battery packs progress. More on this in the “Using the graph to follow along with your batteries progress” section: Draw History B.V. button will display the voltage part of the chart from your previous use.
