7. Operating Instructions
7.1. Basic Operation
- Interface Switching: Click the 'M' key to cycle through the 1-4 function interfaces. The screen-off state is also part of this cycle.
- Display Direction & Data Clear: In any of interfaces 1, 2, 3, or 4:
- Long press the '-' key to quickly switch the screen display direction.
- Long press the '+' key to clear the accumulated running time and power count.
- Power/Time Display Toggle: In Function Interface 3, click the '+' or '-' key to switch between displaying power (Wh) and time (Ah).
7.2. Fast Charging Protocol Triggering (Interface 4)
This feature allows you to manually trigger specific fast charging protocols. Refer to the Safety Information (Section 2) before using this feature.
- Enter Function Interface 4.
- Click the '+' key to move the cursor and select the desired fast charging protocol (PD, QC2.0, or QC3.0).
- Click the '-' key to initiate the triggering of the selected protocol.
- PD Protocol Trigger:
- After triggering PD, click '+' or '-' to switch between PD Fix files.
- To enter PPS voltage regulation, long press the '-' key.
- In PPS mode, click '+' or '-' to adjust the step voltage. Long press '+' to switch the step voltage.
- If multiple PPS files are available, long press '-' to cycle through them.
- Click the 'M' key to exit the PD protocol trigger.
- QC2.0 Protocol Trigger:
- After triggering QC2.0, click '+' or '-' to switch the voltage.
- Click the 'M' key to exit the QC2.0 protocol trigger.
