Charging In Automatic Mode (Cha); Charging In Manual Mode (Chm); Discharge-Charge In Automatic Mode (Dca); Discharge-Charge In Manual Mode (Dcm) - ROBBE 8194 Instrucciones De Uso

Remedial action: Regenerate the battery with a regeneration
program or charge in NC mode.
In addition to this, a safety disconnect works in the back-
ground which finishes the charge process when it has reached
125% of the set capacity.
LEAD BATTERIES (Pb)
These types of batteries are charged with a constant voltage
(2.30 volt / cell). At the start of charging, the current is kept
constant at the preset value.
The charge current reduces continuously after reaching the
charge end voltage.
The charging is finished if approx. 10% of the set charge cur-
rent is achieved.
Lithium-ion batteries (Li)
These types of batteries are also charged with a constant vol-
tage (4.10 volt / cell). At the start of charging, the current is
kept constant at the preset value.
A charge current of 1C is recommended. The charge current
reduces continuously after reaching the charge end voltage.
Charging is finished if approx. 10% of the set charge current is
achieved.
LITHIUM-ION POLYMER BATTERIES (LP)
These types of batteries are also charged with a constant vol-
tage (4.20 volt / cell). At the start of charging, the current is
kept constant at the preset value.
A charge current of 1C is recommended. The charge current
reduces continuously after reaching the charge end voltage.
Charging is finished if approx. 10% of the set charge current is
achieved.
It is particularly important that the charge targets of the bat-
tery manufacturer and the remote control manufacturer
charge targets for the installed transmitter batteries are not
exceeded.
8.1 CHARGING IN AUTOMATIC MODE - CHARGE
AUTOMATIC (CHA).
The charge currents are automatically detected in automatic
mode and set to the optimal value. The limits set by the charge
device (see Chp. 4.4) are taken into consideration. The cur-
rents specified in the "setting" display do not influence the
values established by the processor.
There is initially a small current at the start of the charge pro-
cess, when measuring the battery. The optimal charge current
is then set after a short operating period.
The batteries are charged at an optimal charge rate with parti-
cularly careful handling in this operating mode.
For reasons of safety, this operating mode is not available
for lithium-ion batteries (LI), lithium polymer batteries (LP)
and lead batteries (Pb).
For these batteries, the parameters must be set directly by the
user in manual mode (CHM) while strictly observing the charge
targets of the battery manufacturer. The settings are locked off
from each other by the software. This means that, if the auto-
matic mode is specified, only nickel cadmium (NC) or nickel
metal hydride batteries (NH) can be selected.
If one of the lithium battery types or a lead battery is specified
then you will not be able to set the automatic mode.

8.2 CHARGING IN MANUAL MODE - CHARGE
MANUAL (CHM).
This operating mode is suitable for charging all battery types.
The charge current must be set corresponding to the targets of
the battery manufacturer. Guide values for each battery type
are stated in the chapter "Brief information about batteries"
(from Page 24).
8.3 DISCHARGE-CHARGE AUTOMATIC MODE (DCA)
The discharge and charge currents, as well as the discharge
end voltage, are automatically detected in automatic mode
and set to the optimal value. The limits set by the charge
device (see Chp. 4.4) are taken into consideration. The cur-
rents specified in the "setting" display do not influence the
values established by the processor.
There is initially a small current at the start of the discharge-
charge process, when measuring the battery. The optimal cur-
rent is then set after a short operating period. In this operating
mode, the batteries are charged at a perfect charge rate with
particularly careful handling.
For reasons of safety, this operating mode is not available
for lithium-ion batteries (LI), lithium polymer batteries (LP)
and lead batteries (Pb).
For these batteries, the parameters must be set directly by the
user in manual mode (DCM) while strictly observing the targets
of the battery manufacturer. The settings are locked off from
each other by the software. This means that, if the automatic
mode is specified, only nickel cadmium (NC) or nickel metal
hydride batteries (NH) can be selected.
If one of the lithium battery types or a lead battery is specified
then you will not be able to set the automatic mode.
8.4

DISCHARGE-CHARGE IN MANUAL MODE (DCM)

This operating mode is suitable for discharging-charging all
battery types. The discharge and charge current must be set
corresponding to the targets of the battery manufacturer.
Guide values for each battery type are stated in the chapter
"Brief information about batteries" (from Page 24).
The discharge end voltage is automatically determined.
8.5 DISCHARGE-CHARGE IN AUTOMATIC MODE 3
CYCLES REGENERATION AUTOMATIC (REA)
Three discharge-charge cycles are run through in this opera-
ting mode. This means that the charge and the discharge cur-
rent, as well as the discharge end voltage are automatically
determined by the Profi Homecharger. The process begins
with discharging the battery. This is followed by recharging.
This cycle is run through three times. At the end, a charged
battery is available.
This procedure is applied to improve the condition of NiCd or
NiMH batteries. There is more capacity available subsequent
to this.
There are no improvements from this procedure with lithium-
ion batteries (LI), lithium polymer batteries (LP) and lead batte-
ries (Pb). The software therefore does not supply for these
types.
Order No.
