Runtime
Function: The Runtime program simulates field application with three adjustable
load currents and time intervals.
Sequence: The battery is charged. The program then repeatedly runs three
different loads (see instructions below to set these loads) until the battery is fully
discharged (i.e. The end-of-discharge setting in the C-code is reached).
Results: The detailed display shows the battery run-time (hours and minutes). It
also shows battery or cell voltage; analyzer charge or discharge current (in mA);
OhmTest results; battery temperature and duration of service.
Duration: Approximately 8 – 10 hours for a NiCd battery using default C-codes.
