B) Charging Batteries Without Balancer Connection („Charge") - VOLTCRAFT Quadro B6 Bedienungsanleitung

b) Charging Batteries without Balancer Connection („CHARGE")
Of course, you can also charge multiple-cell lithium rechargeable batteries with a balancer connection
with the rechargeable battery programme „CHARGE".
However, the individual cell voltages are not reconciled here, so that one or several cells may be over-
charged. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
Therefore, always charge multiple-cell lithium rechargeable batteries with balancer connection with
the rechargeable battery programme „BALANCE", but never with the rechargeable battery programme
„CHARGE"!.
• First, choose the rechargeable battery type with the buttons „INC" and „DEC" as described in chapter 11. a) (LiPo,
LiIon or LiFe) and push the button „START/ENTER".
• Select the rechargeable battery programme „CHARGE" with the buttons
„INC" or „DEC".
The value on the left in the lower line shows the charging current, the value
on the right shows the voltage or number of cells of the battery pack (in this
example, a 1-cell LiPo battery pack, 3.7V)
Use the buttons „INC" and „DEC" to select a different rechargeable battery programme; use the button „BATT.
TYPE/STOP" to return to the main menu.
• If the values need to be changed, push the „START/ENTER" button. The charging current flashes. Change the
charging current using the buttons „INC" and „DEC": Keep the respective button pressed for quick adjustment.
Confirm the set charging current with the „START/ENTER" button.
The maximum possible charging current depends on the battery type and number of cells. The max. charging
output per channel is 80 W.
• The voltage then begins to flash. Change this using the buttons „INC" and „DEC".
The voltage can only be changed by the number of cells (e.g. one cell = 3.7 V, two cells = 7.4 V, etc.). Con-
firm the setting by pressing the „START/ENTER" button.
The displayed voltage is the respective rated voltage of the rechargeable battery, see chapter 7. The actual
rechargeable battery voltage with the rechargeable battery fully charged is, of course, higher.
• To begin the charging process, keep the „START/ENTER" button pressed for longer (approx. 3 seconds).
• If the settings are wrong, or if the charger detects a problem, an audio signal is emitted and the appropriate
information is shown on the display.
You can stop the warning signal by pressing the „BATT.TYPE/STOP" button. You then return to the previous
configuration menu.
Otherwise, the following display may appear (alternatingly):
The „R:" value indicates the cell number that the charger has recognised (in the example, a 2-cell rechargeable
battery).
The „S:" value indicates the cell number that you have set in the menu (in the example also a 2-cell rechargeable
battery).
