Rotate the Jog Dial to go to the LiFe FAST CHG screen and set charging parameters. The charging amperage (A) can be set between 0.1 and 10.0A. Voltage (B) is
dependent on the number of cells in series. For example, with Li-Fe batteries these
values can be from 3.3V (for 1S batteries) to 19.8V (for 6S batteries).
Near the end of a standard charging cycle, the charger switches from Constant Current (CC) mode to Constant Voltage (CV) mode to slowly “top off” the current in the
battery as close as possible to the maximum capacity.
In Fast Charge, the CV mode is eliminated in order to greatly shorten the charging
time; however, the final capacity of the battery will be less than what you would get
using the standard charge method.

values can be from 3.6V (for 1S batteries) to 21.6V (for 6S batteries).
Near the end of a standard charging cycle, the charger switches from Constant Current (CC) mode to Constant Voltage (CV) mode to slowly “top off” the current in the
battery as close as possible to the maximum capacity.
In Fast Charge, the CV mode is eliminated in order to greatly shorten the charging
time; however, the final capacity of the battery will be less than what you would get
using the standard charge method.

Troubleshooting Guide
LCD Screen Warning and Error messages shown below.
During charger operation, circuits monitor battery and charger functions. If the following messages show on the charger’s LCD screen, make the recommended responses.
If the message continues after you respond as recommended, contact your nearest Horizon Hobby customer service center for assistance.
REVERSE POLARITY
Make sure each connection polarity is correct between the power source and the charger, then between the charger and the battery
CONNECTION BREAK
Make sure the power connections are correct for charging
SHORT ERR
Make sure there are no short circuits between the poles of the battery or the battery and the charger. Replace damaged wires.
INPUT VOL ERR
Input voltage to the charger fell below the default or adjusted input voltage setting. Make sure the power source for the charger provides correct
input voltage.
VOL SELECT ERR
Incorrect setting for cell in series count (pack voltage) of a lithium battery. Make charger settings match the battery pack label cell in series count
specifications or replace the battery.
BREAK DOWN
Charger electronics require repair.
BATTERY CHECK LOW VOLTAGE
Battery voltage is lower than the value setting in the charger. Adjust settings, then make sure the battery is not damaged or replace the battery.
BATTERY CHECK HIGH VOLTAGE
Battery voltage is higher than the value setting in the charger. Adjust settings, then make sure the battery is not damaged or replace the battery.

Press the Mode key until you reach the 9 main menus, then rotate the Jog Dial to
locate the PROGRAM SELECT Pb BATT screen. Press the Jog Dial to select Pb.
Rotate the Jog Dial to go to one of the control screens (CHARGE or DISCHARGE) to
do what your battery needs.
The nature of a Lead Acid or Sealed Lead Acid battery is very different from that of
Lithium, Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries. The output current of a Pb battery is lower than
other batteries relative to their capacities. Furthermore, lead acid batteries can’t be
charged at a level greater than 1/10 their capacity.
For example, a 5000mAh lead acid battery can’t be charged at a rate greater than
0.5A. For more details on the charge and discharge capabilities of your battery,
please refer to the charging data supplied by the battery manufacturer.
Correctly connect your Pb battery to the charger. Press the Jog Dial and adjust
the charging parameters as needed. Press and hold the Jog Dial (approximately 3
seconds) until the screen changes to start the battery check/charge sequence.
After confirmation, charging starts and information will show on the LCD screen
(information may vary).

menu.
Rotate the Jog Dial to go to the LiPo DISCHARGE screen and set discharging parameters. The discharging amperage (A) can be set between 0.1 and 5.0A. Voltage
(B) is dependent on the number of cells in series. For example, with Li-Po batteries
these values can be from 3.7V (for 1S batteries) to 22.2V (for 6S batteries).
A battery’s capacity can be verified by discharging it to its minimum voltage level
and measuring the current as the battery is discharged.

Ni-MH Re-Peak Charging
Use this menu to set a capacity limit at which the charger will stop charging a
battery. When a charge cycle starts, the charger records the battery capacity.
When the Capacity Cutoff function is set at ON, the charger will stop charging at
the capacity limit to prevent battery damage. Capacity can be adjusted between
100 and 50,000mAh.
• Press the Jog Dial so the ON/OFF value flashes
• Rotate the Jog Dial to select ON or OFF
• Press the Jog Dial to save the value
• Rotate the Jog Dial to select the Capacity Cutoff value
• Press the Jog Dial to save the value
• Rotate the Jog Dial to select Key Beep/Buzzer
Use this menu to set the input voltage limit so an alarm will sound if the voltage
goes below the cutoff value. The voltage alarm value can be set anywhere from
10.0 to 11.0V.
To select a value other than the default parameter:
• Press the Jog Dial so the voltage value flashes
• Rotate the Jog Dial to select the voltage value
• Press the Jog Dial to save the value
