Tryby testowania
- Pomiar pojemności:
- Insert the battery into the desired channel.
- Use the "Channel/CHN" button to select the channel.
- Press "Menu/M" to navigate to the mode selection.
- Use "Adjust/S" to select the desired test mode (e.g., discharge for capacity).
- Set the stop discharge voltage using "Adjust/S" and "Menu/M".
- Press "Start/R/S" to begin the test. The display will show real-time voltage, pojemność bieżąca i skumulowana.
- Pomiar rezystancji wewnętrznej:
- Włóż baterię.
- The device automatically measures internal resistance using the DC two-wire method and displays it.
- Automatic Mode (Charge-Discharge Cycles):
- Select the channel and enter the mode menu.
- Choose "MODE:AUTO".
- Adjust the number of cycles (LOOP: 1-9) using "Adjust/S".
- Set the stop discharge voltage.

|---|---|---|
| Urządzenie nie włącza się. | No power, incorrect power supply, loose connection. | Ensure DC5V power supply is connected correctly to a Type-C port. Check power cable. |
| Battery not detected or test not starting. | Incorrect battery insertion, battery voltage outside supported range, faulty battery. | Check battery polarity. Ensure battery voltage is between 2.8V and 4.2V. Try a different battery. |
| Display shows "Overheat Protection". | Urządzenie się przegrzewa. | Ensure the cooling fan is unobstructed and functioning. Operate in a well-ventilated area. Allow the device to cool down. |
| Cannot charge Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. | The device does not support LiFePO4 charging. | This is a known limitation. Use a dedicated charger for LiFePO4 batteries. |
| Language is incorrect. | Ustawienia językowe wymagają dostosowania. | Follow the language selection steps in the Setup section. |
