Initial parameter set up (Users set up)
902 will be operated with the default value of the essential user settings when it is connected to a
12V DC power for the first time. The screen displays the following information in sequence and the
user can change the value of parameter on each screen.
When you are willing to alter the parameter value in the program, press key to make it blink then
change the value with or key. The value will be stored by pressing key once.
This informs you of its designation
The screen displays the nominal voltage of Lithium battery.
There are three kinds of Lithium battery; LiFe(3.3V),
LiIo(3.6V) or LiPo(3.7V). This is very important so you have
to check the battery carefully and set it up correctly. If it is
different from correct value the battery can explode during
charge process.
902 recognise the cell count of Lithium battery automatically
at the beginning of charge or discharge process to avoid
from erroneous setting by user. But deeply discharged
battery can be perceived incorrectly. To prevent the error,
you can set the time term to verify the cell count by the
processor. Normally, 10 minutes are enough to perceive the
cell count correctly. For the battery of larger capacity, you
may extend the time term. But if you set the time term too
long for the battery of smaller capacity, the charge or
discharge process can be finished within the time term with
the erroneous cell count. This may cause the fatal result. If
the processor recognises the cell count incorrectly at the
beginning of charge or discharge process, you may extend
the time. Otherwise, you had better use with the default
value.

This shows the trigger voltage for automatic charge
termination of NiMH and NiCd battery. The effective value
ranges from 5 to 20mV per cell. If the trigger voltage is set
higher, there is a danger of overcharging the battery; if it is
set lower, there is a possibility of premature termination.
Please refer the technical specification of the battery.
(NiCd default: 12mV, NiMH default: 7mV)

An optional feature using temperature probe contacting the
surface of battery, the temperature cut-off can be on or off. If
it is on, set the maximum temperature at which the charger
should allow battery to reach during charge. Once a battery
reaches this temperature during charge, the process will be
terminated to protect the battery.
