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.
