Manage presets
On Dual PowerLab 8x2 you can:
Clear a User Preset.
Copy a Library Preset for use as a User Preset.
Clear a User Preset
You can remove User Presets you don’t need. For example, if you don’t regularly charge
A123 and Lead Acid batteries, you can remove those to limit the Preset Menu to the
presets you do use.
1. In the User Preset menu, use INC or DEC to select the preset you want to clear.
Press and hold INC or DEC to scroll rapidly.
2. Press INC+DEC to access options.
3. In the Choose TASK? screen, press INC until you see Manage Presets, then press
ENTER.
4. In the Clear Current Preset? screen, press INC to display Y, then press ENTER.
5. In the Confirm CLEAR Preset? screen, press INC to display Y, then press ENTER.
6. In the Preset Cleared screen, press and hold BACK to return to the User Preset
menu. You’ll see EMPTY PRESET for the preset you just cleared.
Copy a Library Preset
Dual PowerLab 8x2 is equipped with up to 50 Library Presets. A Library Preset (which
you can’t change) is a starting point for creating your own User Preset (which you can
change). FMA configures Library Presets with optimal charge characteristics for a variety
of battery chemistries and charging strategies. You can replace an existing User Preset
with a Library Preset, or—if less than 25 User Presets are installed—you can create a
new User Preset from a Library Preset. After you load a Library Preset into a User
Preset slot, you can change its properties.
Tip: You can also use the Charge Control Software’s Presets tab to hide,
show, re-arrange, copy and modify presets.
Note: If the Preset Changes Always Save? option is set to Y in Dual
PowerLab 8x2 options, or if the Save Preset Changes done at PowerLab
option is enabled in the CCS Options tab, and if CCS is running and
communicating with Dual PowerLab 8x2, cleared and copied presets are
reflected in the CCS Presets tab.
Tip: The CCS has better tools for managing presets (see Presets tab).
Deleting a preset at the Dual PowerLab 8x2, for example, leaves an empty
preset location. In contrast, the CCS lets you hide presets, which can reduce
the number of visible presets to a manageable level without actually deleting
the preset.
