308DUO V1.6.0
Synchronous Balance Charger/Discharger
- 17 -
Note:1. When the value of charge cells voltage exceeds the recommended value (LiPo 4.2V, LiIo 4.1V,
LiFe 3.6V), the charger will display a warning and alarm. As long as the user changes the values,
the battery types and cells voltage value on the main charging interface will be displayed
alternately.
2.For the setting process for all program in this manual, tick Show to display the setting program
on MEMORY SETUP (shown in the following picture), and vice versa; the built-in program is
ticked by default.
 LiPo/LiIo/LiFe Battery Not Balance Charge Setup
When switch to Not Balance on Chg Mode, Only Chg End Current is available for charging end condition, and
“
” behind Chg Mod and Chg End Current are inactive.
Note: The charger first charges with constant current (CC) according to the user setting, then turns to
constant voltage (CV) when the charging voltage reaches the peak point. In the CV phase the
current gradually falls, and the charger will terminate charging when the current falls below the
percentage of the configured charge current.
For example: the default value of Chg Current is 2A, and the default value of Chg End Current is
10%
Chg End Current=2A*10%=0.2A
Therefore it stops charging when the charging current reduces to 0.2A.
 LiPo/LiIo/LiFe Battery Balance Charge Setup
Switch to Slow Balance, Normal Balance, Fast Balance or User Balance on Chg Mode as the balance charge mode, and
" " button will be available, click it to enter Balance mode setup interface.
Note: On Balance mode, the charger will monitor the voltage of individual cells to control it within the
Chg Cell Volt and equalize the voltage in all cells, to avoid some cell voltage over-charged or not
full. When selecting Balance mode, the balance port of charger or balance board must be
connected with battery except for connecting 1S battery.
Balance Start : CV,CV-0.1V
—
1V,Alway
Default: CV-0.2
If the balance charge voltage is 4.2V, Balance Start
set to CV-0.2V; therefore the charger will start to
balance the battery cells when the voltage reaches to
4.2V-0.2V=4V
