b) Charging Batteries without Balancer Connection ("CHARGE")
Of course, you can also charge multiple-cell lithium rechargeable batteries with a balancer connection with
the rechargeable battery programme "CHARGE".
However, the individual cell voltages are not reconciled here, so that one or several cells may be over-
charged. There is a risk of re and explosion!
Therefore, always charge multiple-cell lithium rechargeable batteries with balancer connection with
the rechargeable battery programme "BALANCE", but never with the rechargeable battery programme
"CHARGE"!
First, choose the rechargeable battery type with the button "INC." or "DEC." as described in chapter 11. a) (LiPo,
LiIon, LiFe or LiHV) and push the button "START/ENTER".
Now select the rechargeable battery programme "CHARGE" with the button
"INC." or "DEC.".
The value on the left in the lower line shows the charging current, the value
on the right shows the voltage or number of cells of the battery pack (in this
example, a 3-cell LiPo battery pack, 11.1 V).
Use the button "INC." or "DEC." to select a different rechargeable battery programme; use the button
"BATT. TYPE/STOP" to return to the main menu.
If the values need to be changed, push the "START/ENTER" button. The charging current ashes. Change the
charging current using the buttons "INC." and "DEC.". Keep the respective button pressed for quick adjustment.
Conrm the set charging current with the "START/ENTER" button.
The maximum possible charging current depends on the rechargeable battery type, the cell number and
the max. charging output of the charging channel used.
The voltage then begins to ash. Change this using the buttons "INC." and "DEC.".
The voltage can only be changed by the number of cells of the rechargeable battery (e.g. one cell = 3.7 V,
two cells = 7.4 V, etc.). The displayed voltage is the respective nominal voltage of the rechargeable battery,
see chapter 7. The actual rechargeable battery voltage is, of course, higher at a fully charged rechargeable
battery.
Conrm the setting by pressing the "START/ENTER" button.
To begin the charging process, keep the "START/ENTER" button pressed
for longer (approx. 3 seconds).
The charger now examines the connected rechargeable battery.
If the settings are wrong, or if the charger detects a problem, an audio signal is emitted and the appropriate
information is shown on the display. You can stop the warning signal by pressing the "BATT. TYPE/STOP"
button. You then return to the previous conguration menu.
If no error was recognised, e.g. the display on the right will appear (alternat-
ing).
The "R:" value indicates the cell number that the charger has recognised (in
the example a 2-cell rechargeable battery).
The "S:" value indicates the cell number that you have set in the menu (in
the example also a 2-cell rechargeable battery).
