Hitec’s RDX2 200 allows you to plug two batteries into the charger simultaneously. The batteries
being charged do not need to have the same configuration. You can connect dierent battery
chemistries (NiMH/ NiCd/LiPo/LiFe/Lilo/LiHV/Pb) into any of the charging ports.
The RDX2 200 employs an individual-cell-voltage balancer.
During the discharge process, the RDX2 200 monitors and balances each cell of the battery
individually. If the voltage of any single cell reads abnormally, an error message will display and
end the process automatically for protection.
The RDX2 200 will charge a variety of Lithium batteries such as LiPo, LiFe, LiIo and the new
higher voltage LiHV batteries.
MULTIPLE LITHIUM BATTERY CHARGE MODES
In this mode, each cell is monitored and if some are at higher voltages than the others, they are
discharged to equalize the voltage between all the cells and keep the pack in optimum con-
dition. We highly recommend using Balance Charge as it is the safest and best way to charge
Lithium batteries.
This mode charges the pack without balancing the cells. Connecting the balance lead is still
recommended so you can monitor each cell’s voltage manually by scrolling to the left with the
Jog Dial. Note: If the cells are more than 0.02V o from each other, Balance Charge should be
used to equalize the pack.
This mode charges or discharges the pack to 50% capacity so that it can be safely stored when
not in normal use. If you do NOT plan on using your Lithium pack within 24-48 hours of being
fully charged or fully discharged, Storage Mode is recommended to optimize maximum lifespan
and performance and reduce the risk of the gases forming, causing the pack to pu.
For experienced users ONLY, the charger’s end voltage can be reset up to 0.02v/cell higher.
DEFAULT SETTING IS RECOMMENDED. ONLY CHANGE IN A CONTROLLED
ENVIRONMENT. ALWAYS MONITOR THE BATTERY DURING THE CHARGE PROCESS.
A battery can be cycled 1 to 5 times consecutively. This process is normally used for NiCd or NiMH
packs that have lost capacity over time.
In Re-Peak charge mode, the charger can peak charge the battery once, twice, or three times in
a row automatically. This function is useful for ensuring a full battery charge.
This function determines the amount of voltage drop in MV that must be achieved for the Del-
ta-Peak algorithm to automatically terminate the charge process. This can be raised for packs
that have a tendency to “False Peak” at the default setting.
The user can check not only the MAIN pack voltage but each individual cell and its resistance as well.
This feature allows the user to set a limit for the maximum mAhs that can be put into the pack.
Once this limit is reached, the charge process will automatically terminate, and “OVER CHARGE
CAPACITY LIMIT” will be displayed. Default is 12000mAh, so set this accordingly to the rated
capacity of the pack. To ensure the pack gets fully charged, this setting should be at least 10%
higher than the rated capacity on the pack or turned OFF.
Protect your battery by setting a maximum time limit for charging. Once this limit is reached, the
charge process will automatically terminate, and “OVER TIME LIMIT” will be displayed. Default is
240 minutes, so adjust as needed depending on the charge rate and capacity of the pack.
The battery charge percentage is displayed in real time once you are charging.
With the built in Power Supply function, you can power devices with up to 27V @ 10A.
IF THE POWER SUPPLY FUNCTION IS ACTIVATED, CHARGING IS DISABLED.
