The Main Menu is where all main functions (charge, discharge, cycle) are located and started, as well as where to select the
battery type, charge, discharge, and cycle currents and voltages. When power is applied the first time, Triton2 will automatically
default to the "Memory (01) NiCd" screen shown on the left side of the Main Menu flowchart. It is strongly recommended to
have all flowcharts handy as it will greatly simplify and quicken the process of learning to use the charger.
1. ALWAYS connect the battery adapter lead to the charger BEFORE connecting the battery to the adapter. Make sure to observe
proper polarities for all connections, with the red positive (+) leads connected to each other, and the black negative (-) leads connected
to each other. WARNING! NEVER allow the positive and negative output connections to touch while a battery is connected.
Failure to do so could result in permanent damage to the battery and/or the charger and void your warranty.
2. Rotate the dial to move up and down a menu. To adjust values on-screen, press the dial and the adjustable feature will flash.
Rotate the dial to find desired value, then re-press the dial to confirm the selection. If a screen shows two adjustable values,
repeatedly press the dial to select the value to be adjusted.
3. BATTERY MEMORIES: If you don't
wish to use a battery memory, skip to
step 4. Using the memories prevents
you from having to manually change
all settings each time you change
batteries. Once set, simply select the
memory number that matches the
corresponding
battery. You
customize any of the ten memories as
you wish, as explained in the diagram
at right. Or, you can use one of the ten
factory programmed memories if the
settings match your battery type. See
the included BATTERY MEMORY
CHARTS for the factory programmed
memories, and a blank chart where
you can record customized memory
settings. All memory settings will hold
even if power is removed, until they're
changed again manually.
Note: You cannot start any charge,
discharge, or cycle function from the
memory screens. You must press
MENU CHANGE to confirm all
memory settings and move to the
appropriate "charge" screen for the
selected battery type.
4. SETTING BATTERY TYPE: If not using a memory, press BATT TYPE to find the battery type which EXACTLY matches your
battery. Referring to the Main Menu flowchart, select from NiCd, NiMH, LiPo (use this for Li-Ion batteries also – see the
"Selecting LiPo or Li-Ion Battery Type" section for details), and Pb (lead-acid).
5. STARTING CHARGE, DISCHARGE, OR CYCLE: Read the sections below for how to set values for the selected battery
type, and how to start charge, discharge, or a cycle.
• NEVER allow NiMH batteries to overheat, as this could adversely affect their performance. If this happens, disconnect the
battery from the charger immediately and allow to cool!
• NEVER deep cycle NiMH batteries as permanent damage could result.
• NEVER attempt to use the NiCd, Pb, or lithium functions with NiMH batteries.
• Store NiMH packs with some voltage remaining on the cells (refer to battery supplier).

Press the dial, then rotate to select a memory (1-10). Re-press dial to
confirm memory selection.
ROTATE DIAL
IMPORTANT! Press, then rotate dial to find the EXACT battery type to
match your battery. Press dial to confirm.
Press, then rotate dial to find the voltage which EXACTLY matches the
nominal voltage shown on the battery pack. Press dial to confirm.
Press, then rotate dial to find the capacity value which MOST CLOSELY
matches the capacity shown on the battery pack. Press dial to confirm.
Press, then rotate dial to find the desired charge current. Refer to the
"NiCd and NiMH Charge and Discharge Current" chart for
recommendations. Press dial to confirm. (Screen not shown for lithium
batteries, as current will automatically be set to the battery's 1C value).
Press, then rotate dial to find the discharge current value. Refer to the
NiCd and "NiMH Charge and Discharge Current" chart to determine the
proper current. Press dial to confirm.
Press, then rotate dial to find the discharge cut-off voltage. Refer to the
"Discharge Cutoff Settings - NiCd and NiMH" chart on page 7 to
determine the proper voltage. Press dial to confirm. (Screen not shown
4.4V
for lithium or lead-acid batteries.)
