7.3 CHARGE/DISCHARGE DISCHARGE/CHARGE CYCLE OF
NIMH/NICD BATTERIES
Select the sequence based on the current state of the battery.
If the battery is fully charged, use the Discharge/Charge
sequence. If the battery needs to be charged, use Charge/
Discharge. Press START/ENTER to conrm the setting, then
choose how many times to cycle the battery (1-5). Press and
hold START/ENTER to begin the process.

buttons to see the amount of capacity that was charged/
discharged. By pressing increase/decrease again, the results of
the next charge cycle will be shown.
This program is for charging Pb (lead-sulfuric acid) batteries with a nominal voltage from 2V
to 20V. The optimal charge rate for a Pb battery is 1/10 of the capacity. Pb batteries must NOT
be charged rapidly. Always follow the instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer.
When condent you have the correct settings for your Pb battery, press START/ENTER to
begin editing the settings. Use the increase/decrease buttons to adjust the value and press
START/ENTER to save the selected value.
8.1 CHARGING PB BATTERIES
Set up the charge current on the left and the nominal voltage of
the battery on the right. The charge current ranges from 0.1A to
6.0A and the voltage should be matched with the battery being
charged. Start the charge process by pressing the START/
ENTER button for more than 3 seconds.
The screen will display the current state of charging. To stop the
process, press the Batt type/Stop key once. An audible sound
