ProgressiveRC 10XP FMA Cellpro - Manual (Page 15)

Applying power to the charger
To apply power to the charger: Connect the charger to a 10V to 32V DC power supply, field battery
or car battery. If your bench power supply is equipped with banana jacks for output, you can remove
the plier clips from the charger’s input cables and plug the cables directly into the power supply jacks.
When the charger is powered up, it displays the following “Welcome” screen:

When power is applied, the charger always initializes to the last preset used for charging. If you altered
the charge settings for a preset at the charger (as described in “Changing a preset,” later in this manual),
those changes are retained when the charger is disconnected from power, and will be reapplied when the
charger is powered up again.
“Selecting a preset” and “Changing a preset,” in the next section, provide additional information.
