Description
This charging mode is for charging LiPo/LiFe/LiIon/LiHV battery in normal mode.
This program is for charging or discharging
will not be used for long time.
The charging capacity may be less than normal charging but the
process time will be reduced.
This mode is for balancing the voltage of lithium-polymer battery
cells while charging.
The charger will charge NiMH and NiCd batteries using the
charge current set by the user.
In this program the charger detects the condition of the battery
which is connected to the output and automatically charges the
battery.
In re-peak charge mode, the charger can peak charge the
battery once, twice or three times in a row automatically. This is
good for confirming the battery is fully charged, and for checking
how well the battery receives fast charges.
1 to 5 cyclic and continuous process of charge>discharge or
discharge>charge is operable for battery refreshing and
balancing to stimulate the battery's activity.

This program is only suitable for charging/discharging Lithium chemistry
batteries (LiPo, LiHV, LiIon and LiFe).
The X2AC+ oers the following lithium charge modes: Charge, Balance Charge,
Fast Charge, Storage and Discharge.
BEFORE SELECTING A CHARGE MODE, IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU SELECT THE
CORRECT TYPE OF LITHIUM BATTERY TO BE CHARGED. FAILURE TO DO SO

Selecting a Lithium Battery Type:
From the “BATT/PROGRAM” screen, press the INC. – or
DEC + button to scroll through the battery type selections.
Once you have selected the correct battery type, press the ENTER/Start ►
button to enter the charge/discharge menu.
Lithium Charge Mode:
BEFORE YOU BEGIN CHARGING YOUR BATTERY, MAKE SURE YOU
HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OF THE WARNINGS AND SAFETY
INFORMATION CONTAINED ON PAGES 0207.
IN THE CHARGE MODE, LITHIUM BATTERIES CAN BE CHARGED WITHOUT
THE USE OF A BALANCE ADAPTOR. A BALANCE ADAPTOR CAN BE USED,
BUT IT IS NOT REQUIRED. BALANCE CHARGE MODE IS RECOMMENDED
FOR ANY BATTERY WITH A BALANCE LEAD.
See page 12 for the appropriate charging connections setup for this operation.
First, select the correct battery type by following the instructions page 16.
Once you have set the correct battery type, press the ► button once to enter
the charge mode and battery settings screen, use the INC. – or DEC + to select
