When the batteries voltage exceeds the preset voltage threshold the charger will stop charging
automatically.
Automatic Charging Current Limit
You may program the maximum allowed charge current. This is useful for the NiCd or NiMH
batteries that have low impedance and capacity.
Capacity Limit
This user-defined setting safety feature calculates the maximum allows charged capacity of the
pack. If the capacity limit exceeds this predefined capacity then your charging will stop.
Temperature Threshold*
In the case that your battery over heats during the charging process then the temperate sensor
will sense this temperature and will terminate charging.
*Temperature sensor sold seperate.
Processing Time Limit:
The user may define the maximum allowed time to charge, if the charger surpasses this
specified time then the charger will terminate.
LiPo Battery Meter
This useful feature give the user the ability to analyze the batteries total voltage and individual
cells voltage.

Hyperion EOS 0840i
“Fast” Charge Mode For Lithium Batteries
“Fast” charge mode quickens the duration of charging by only filling the battery to approx 90%
of full capacity. Typically the last 10% of charging takes the longest time due to the fact that the
charger must reduce charge rate so the cells do not overcharge when they reach peak voltage.
Battery Internal Resistance Meter
The user may check each cell's individual internal resistance. This reading is in milli-ohm units.
“Store” mode is used to control the final voltage of your battery so that you may safely store
them. If you leave your batteries fully-charged and do not intend use them soon then it is
dangerous and will cause damage to your cells.
“Store” Mode
These warnings and safety notes are particularly important. Please follow the
instructions for maximum safety; otherwise the charger and the battery can be
damaged or at worst it can cause a fire.
Never leave the charger unattended when it is connected to its power supply. If any
malfunction is found, TERMINATE THE PROCESS AT ONCE and refer to the
operation manual.
Keep the charger well away from dust, rain, heat, direct sunshine and vibration. Never
drop your charger.
The allowable DC input voltage is 11~30V DC
This charger and the battery should be put on a heat-resistant, non-flammable and
nonconductive surface. Never place them on a car seat, or carpet. Keep all
nonflammable and volatile materials away from the chargers operating area.
Make sure you know the specifications of the battery to be charged or discharged to
ensure it meets the requirements of this charger. If the program is not set up properly
the battery and charger may be damaged. It can cause fire or explosion due to

- Non-rechargeable batteries such as Alkaline (Explosion hazard).
- Batteries that require a different charging technique that differ from NiCd, NiMh,
LiPo or Gel cell (Pb, Lead acid).
- A faulty or damaged battery.
- A battery fitted with an integral charge circuit or a protection circuit.
- Batteries installed in a device or which are electrically linked to other components.
Please bear in mind the following points before commencing charging:
- Did you select the appropriate program suitable for the type of battery you are
charging?
- Did you set up adequate current for charging or discharging?
- Have you checked the battery voltage? Lithium battery packs can be wired in
parallel and in series, i.e. a 2 cell pack can be 3.7V (in parallel) or 7.4V (in series).
- Have you checked that all connections are firm and secure?
- Make sure there are no intermittent contacts at any point in the circuit.
Charging
Do not overcharge your battery by surpassing the manufactures recommend
maximum allowed charging C rate. If you charge too quickly this will cause the cell to
become damaged or catch fire.
Connect the battery to the terminal of the charger: red is the positive terminal and
black is the negative terminal. Due to possible differences in resistance of the
connectors and wires only use high-quality charge cables and charge harnesses
failure to do so may cause the charger to not function properly and may cause
damage.
Always refer to the battery manufacturers charge label about the charging method,
maximum charge rate and other important settings. Failure to incorrectly charge your
battery may result in fire or explosion.
Never attempt to charge or discharge the following types of batteries:

Discharging
The main purpose of discharging is to remove residual capacity of the battery, or to
reduce the battery voltage to a defined level. The same attention should be paid to
the discharging process as charging. The final discharge voltage should be set up
correctly to avoid over-discharging. Lithium battery can not be discharged too low or it
will cause a rapid loss of capacity or a total failure. Please pay attention to the
minimum voltage of the lithium battery.
Some rechargeable batteries have a memory effect. If they are partialy used and
recharged consistently then they will remember this effect and will cause a reduce in
capacity, this is called memory effect.NiCd and NiMH batteries commonly suffer from
memory effect. NiCd has more of a tendency to have “memory effect” than compared
to NiMH.
Attention should be paid to the connection of lithium battery especially. Do not
attempt to disassemble the battery pack and use them. Always use the BALANCE
CHARGE function, any voltage imbalances in the cells may cause fire or explosion.
Lithium batteries are recommended to be charge in series.
