The processor monitors voltage of each cell in the battery pack during storage preparation and discharging.
To use this feature you must connect the balance leads from your battery to the charger. If the charger detects
any abnormalities it will terminate the process automatically. If this occurs, an error message will be displayed.
Press the ‘INC’ key to see which cell is abnormal.

This error message is displayed when the processor detects that the
voltage of one cell is too low.

This error message depicts a failure of the fourth cell in the battery. This
value could be zero if disconnection occurs.

This program allows for charging and discharging of NiCd/NiMH batteries.
Press the ‘START/ENTER’ key to make it blink and then press the ‘+’ or ‘-’
keys to change the value. Press the ‘START/ENTER’ key to store the value.

This program charges the battery using the current you’ve specified. In the
“auto” state, ensure that the current limit that you specify is less than the
maximum value specified by the battery’s manufacturer. Some low
resistance and low capacity batteries may pull a higher current in the
“auto” state. In the “manual” state, the charger will use the exact current
that you set. Press the ‘START/ENTER’ key to make it blink and then press
the ‘+’ and ‘-’ keys at the same time to switch states.
