This program is only suitable for charging Pb (lead-acid) batter-
ies with nominal voltages of 2 to 20V. A Pb (lead-acid) battery is
significantly different from NiCd/NiMH batteries. Pb batteries can
only deliver lower currents than in comparison to their capacity.
The same restriction applies to the charging process. Consequently,
the optimum charge current can only be 1/10 of the capacity. A Pb
battery cannot be used for fast charging. Please follow the instruc-
tions provided by the battery manufacturer.
The X1 Pro offers the following NiCd/NiMH charge modes: Charge
and Discharge.
