Rotate the Jog dial to go to one of the control screens (CHARGE or DISCHARGE) to
do what your battery needs.
The nature of a Lead Acid or Sealed Lead Acid battery is very different from that of
Lithium, Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries. The output current of a Pb battery is lower than
other batteries relative to their capacities. Furthermore, lead acid batteries can't be
charged at a level greater than 1/10 their capacity.
For example, a 5000mAh lead acid battery can't be charged at a rate greater than
0.5A. For more details on the charge and discharge capabilities of your battery,
please refer to the charging data supplied by the battery manufacturer.
Correctly connect your Pb battery to the charger. Press the Jog dial and adjust
the charging parameters as needed. Press and hold the Jog dial (approximately 3
seconds) until the screen changes to start the battery check/charge sequence.
After confirmation, charging starts and information will show on the LCD screen

Use this menu to create a battery profile. To reduce the time required to initiate a
charging or discharging cycle on a battery you regularly use, this charger has been
designed with the capability of storing up to 10 battery profiles that can be quickly
accessed and run at a later time.

REST TIME
Use this menu to set the Rest time during each step in a cycle.When a Ni-MH or
Ni-CD battery is cycled (charged, discharged and charged again) it will get hot,
therefore it is necessary to set a rest time interval during each step of the pro-
cess to make sure the battery and charger are completely cooled before moving
on to the next part of the cycle. Default time is 10 minutes, but this can be set
between 1 and 60 minutes. To select a value other than the default parameter:

SAfETy TIMER
Use this menu to set a time limit for charging a battery. When a charge cycle
is started, a clock inside the charger will begin recording the elapsed charge
time. If the SAFETY TIMER function has been turned ON, the charger will stop
the charging process once this time limit has been reached to avoid damage
caused by over-charging the battery. This time value can be set between 1 and
720 minutes.
To select values other than the default parameters:

When the Capacity Cutoff function is set at ON, the charger will stop charging at
the capacity limit to prevent battery damage. Capacity can be adjusted between
100 and 50,000mAh.

This example is for a 2S battery, so only the voltages for these two cells are dis-
played. The data is presented in this format:
1–1
1–2
1–3 V
1–4
1-5
1–6 V
At this point, you can rotate the Jog dial to see a display of the overall battery
voltage as well as the individual high- and low-cell voltage values.
MAIN
08.20V
H4.104V

Make sure each connection polarity is correct between the power source and the charger, then between the charger and the battery
Make sure the power connections are correct for charging
Make sure there are no short circuits between the poles of the battery or the battery and the charger. Replace damaged wires.
Input voltage to the charger fell below the default or adjusted input voltage setting. Make sure the power source for the charger provides correct
input voltage.
Incorrect setting for cell in series count (pack voltage) of a lithium battery. Make charger settings match the battery pack label cell in series count
specifications or replace the battery.
Charger electronics require repair.
Battery voltage is lower than the value setting in the charger. Adjust settings, then make sure the battery is not damaged or replace the battery.
