safety Timer

When the charge process starts, the integrated safety timer starts

to run simultaneously. If an error occurs or the termination circuit

cannot detect whether the battery is fully charged, the X1 Pro is

programmed to prevent overcharging and will terminate the charg-

ing process.
safety Timer calculation

When charging NiCd or NiMH batteries, divide the capacity by the

current, then divide the result by 11.9. Set this number of minutes

as the setting for the safety timer setting. If the charger stops at this

time threshold, about 140% of the capacity will have been fed into

the battery.
