Nicd/Nimh - Cycle Mode; Pb (Lead Acid); Pb - Charge Modes - HITEC X1 Pro Bedienungsanleitung

8.6. NiCd/NiMH - Cycle Mode

The X1 Pro makes cycling of NiCd/NiMH batteries easy. The
process of discharging and recharging (cycling) can be achieved
automatically with one simple step and will improve the
performance of NiCd/NiMH batteries. We strongly recommend
cycling any battery that has been discharged and stored for
a preiod of time. This will increase battery life and improve
performance.
Before you begin cycling your battery, make
sure you have read and understand all of the
warnings and safety information.
Select the correct battery type by following the instructions
on page 38. Once you have set the correct battery type, toggle
up or down until you see the "

9. Pb (LeaAcid)
This program is only suitable for charging Pb (lead-acid)
batteries with nominal voltages of 2 to 20 V. A Pb (lead-acid)
battery is signifi cantly different from NiCd/NiMH batteries.
Pb batteries can only deliver current lower in comparison
to their capacity.

9.1. Pb - Charge Modes

The X1 Pro offers the following NiCd/NiMH charge modes:
Charge and Discharge.
Before selecting a charge mode, it is critical
