4. התקנה

1. חיבור חשמל: Connect the tester to a 5V DC power source using one of the two Type-C interfaces. An adapter and cable are typically included.
2. הכנסת סוללה: Insert flat-top 18650 batteries into the designated battery holders (3, 4, 5, 6). Ensure correct polarity (+ and -). The tester supports flat-top 18650 batteries.
3. ייצוב: After installing a battery, allow a few seconds for the voltage and internal resistance readings on the display to stabilize before proceeding with tests.

5. הוראות הפעלה

The tester allows for independent operation of its four channels.

איור 4: Display and control buttons. This image provides a detailed view of the tester's screen and the four control buttons located below it, used for navigation and operation.

5.1. Basic Navigation and Channel Selection

• השתמש ב- Channel /CHN Key (16) to switch between the four independent channels (CHN 1 to CHN 4).
• ה Menu /M Key (13) is used to enter or exit menu settings.
• ה Adjust /S Key (14) is used to change values or select options within a menu.
• ה Start/Stop /R/S Button (15) initiates or terminates a test cycle.

5.2. Automatic Charge and Discharge Cycles

The tester supports fully automatic charging and discharging cycles (1-9 cycles adjustable in auto mode).

1. Select the desired channel using the Channel /CHN Key.
2. הקש על Menu /M Key כדי להיכנס לבחירת המצב.
3. השתמש ב- Adjust /S Key to select 'AUTO' mode.
4. Adjust the number of cycles (LOOP: 1-9) using the Adjust /S Key אם צריך.
5. הקש על Start/Stop /R/S Button to begin the automatic cycle. The charging process automatically stops when the battery is full.

5.3. Internal Resistance Measurement

The device utilizes the DC two-wire method to provide reference internal resistance values.

• For the most accurate reading, measure internal resistance when the battery is fully charged.
• The internal resistance value is displayed as 'mR' on the screen (5).

5.4. Setting Stop Discharge Voltage

You can choose from 11 stop-discharge voltage levels (2.5V to 3.5V).

1. בחר את הערוץ הרצוי.
2. Enter the menu using the Menu /M Key.
3. Navigate to the 'STOP' voltagהגדרה e.
4. השתמש ב- Adjust /S Key to select the desired stop discharge voltage (2.5V, 2.6V, ..., 3.5V).
5. אשר את ההגדרה וצא מהתפריט.

5.5. הערות שימוש חשובות

• Discharge current is fixed at a maximum of approximately 1A (non-adjustable, non-constant current).
• טעינה כרךtage is fixed at 4.2V.
• This tester is לא תואם with LiFePO4 batteries.

6. מידע בטיחות

The device incorporates several safety features to ensure safe operation:

• הגנה מפני התחממות יתר: The integrated radiator fan (11) and internal sensors help prevent the device from overheating during operation.
• כיבוי אוטומטי: Settings are automatically saved in case of power loss.
• Charge Cutoff: Automatic charge cutoff prevents overcharging of batteries.
• עצירת פריקה: Configurable stop discharge voltage prevents over-discharging.
