User manual RAPID 65 ELECTRIC

[. . . ] Especially for Lithium batteries, it can prevent the overcharging which may lead to an explosion due to the user's fault. It can disconnect the circuit automatically and alarm once detecting any malfunction. All the programs of this product were controlled through two way linkage and communication, to archive the maximum safety and minimize the trouble. All the settings can be configured by users! Internal independent Lithium battery balancer iMax 65 ELECTRIC employs an individual-cell-voltage voltage balancer.

Peak Sensitivity As default this charger will be set to typical user settings when it is connected to a 12V battery for the first time. The screen displays the following information in sequence and the user can change the parameter on each screen. If you need to alter the parameter value in the program, press Start/Enter key to make it blink then change the value with INC or DEC key. There are three kinds of Lithium battery: LiFe(3. 3V), Lilo(3. 6V) or LiPo(3. 7V). This information is of critical importance that you have to check the battery carefully to make sure it is set up correctly. If it is different from correct value, explosion can occur during charge process. To avoid from erroneous setting by users, iMax 65 ELECTRIC detects the cell count of Lithium battery automatically at the beginning of charge or discharge process. To avoid this error, the time term can be set to verify the cell count by the processor. Charging in this mode is different from the normal modes, because the built-in processor monitors voltage of individual cell and control input current fed into each cell to normalize the voltage. The value on the left side of the second lines sets the charge current. The value on the right LiPo FAST CHG NiCd Sensitivity side of the second lines sets the D.
