Discharging:
The main purpose of discharging is to clear the battery’s residual capacity, or to
reduce the battery's voltage to a defined level. The same attention should be paid to
the discharging process as charging.The final discharge voltage should be set up
correctly to avoid deep-discharging. Lithium batteries should not be discharged to a
value lower than the minimum voltage, or it will cause a rapid loss of capacity or a
total failure. Generally, Lithium battery do not need to be discharged. Please pay
attention to the minimum voltage of Lithium battery to protect the battery.
Some rechargeable batteries have a memory effect. If they are partly used and
recharged before the whole charge is used, they ‘remember’ this and will only use
that part of their capacity next time. This is a ‘memory effect.’ It is said that NiCd and
NiMH batteries can suffer from memory effect. NiCd have more memory effect than
NiMH.
We recommend only partial (rather than full) discharge of lithium batteries. Frequent
full discharging should be avoided if possible. Instead, charge the battery more often
or use a battery of larger capacity. Full capacity cannot be used until it has been
subjected to 10 or more charge cycles.The cycling process or charge and discharge
will optimize the capacity of battery pack.

The program has a maximum capacity protection feature. If
the Delta peak voltage cannot be detected, the charge
process will stop automatically when the battery reaches
the user-set maximum charge capacity.
This function monitors the voltage of the input battery used
to power the Duplex charger. If the voltage falls below the
user-set value, the program will automatically terminate to
protect the input battery.
When a process completes, the number of confirmation
beeps can be adjusted here.
A beep is used to confirm that a button has been pressed.
The beep or a melody sounds at various times during
operation to confirm there has been a mode change. These
functions can be switched on or off.
This function is used to limit the maximum power of the
charger.
These functions are used to alter the default values of
termination voltage/cell for LiPo, LiIo, LiFe LiHv and Pb
batteries.
The menu language can be changed from English to
German in this function.
