Balance
Lipo balance charge use CC-CV charging way. The charger will balance the battery voltage
when charging, this only for LiPo battery. Please connecting the balance port when charging
and discharging. Support 2-6 cells.
Charge
Use CC-CV charging way. On the basis of Users setting current the charger will charge the
battery to the cut-off voltage. Warning: The voltage can not balance even connecting the
balance port when using LiPo battery.
FastCharge
FastCharge. Almost same as the Charge Mode. The only difference is the current only 1/5 and
the other setting only 1/10 of the setting current when finished charging.Warning: The voltage
can not balance even connecting the balance port when using LiPo battery.
Storage
Charging and discharging the battery voltage to a certain numerical for easy storage. This
function only for LiPo battery which need connecting the balance port. Support 2-6S.
DisCharge
Use CC-CV charging way. On the basis of Users setting current the charger will discharge the
battery to the cut-off voltage. Warning: Please connecting to the Balance port when use LiPo
battery.
Checker
Check Mode. The charger only collect battery primary port and balance port voltage,but can not
charge and discharge.
Manual Charge
This function only for NiMH battery which same as The Charge mode.
Cycle
This function only for NiMH battery. On the basis of Users setting current for MiNH battery cycle
charging and discharging.The Cycle time is 1-6.
