FAQ1. After connecting the battery to the device, there is no voltage displayed on the screen? Check whether the small red and black crocodile clips are connected to the positive and negative terminals of the battery. 1. Start testing but no current displayed on the tester? Ensure that the large red and black crocodile clips are securely connected to the positive and negative terminals of the battery. 2. The tester cannot start discharge process? Check whether the termination voltage is set correctly. When the detected voltage is lower than the termination voltage, the tester won’t start discharging test. 4. The tester can’t connect with a computer? A) Install the software and driver correctly. B) Select the corresponding port on the software (can check the port number in the computer’s Device Manager, the device can only be connected with the software when the port is between COM2 and COM9) C) The tester should be in the stop state (if test has been initiated using the buttons, software function is disabled). 5. How to test the capacity? First charge the battery to full, and then switch to discharge the battery. Capacity will display on the screen when the test stops. 6. How to do the cycle testing? When you control testing through the EB software, you can set up more than one cycle. But if you start testing using buttons, you can set just a charge-discharge-charge cycle. Only EBC-series supports charge tests. 7. What parameter should be set? The battery charge and discharge parameters should be set according to the battery specification sheet. Incorrect parameters will damage battery and tester and cause safety concerns. The following are common parameters (follow battery specification sheet is highly recommeded): 3.7V Lithium battery: charging current≤0.5C, charging voltage=4.2V, discharge current≤0.5C, discharge voltage=2.8V. 3.2V lithium iron: charging current≤1C, charging voltage=3.65V, discharge current≤1C, discharge voltage=2.5V. 2V lead acid: charging current≤0.25C, charging voltage=2.4V, discharge current≤0.5C, discharge voltage=1.75V. *C refers to C-rate of a battery. For a 10Ah battery, 0.5C=5A.
