6. Operating Modes

The Dlyfull UT1 charger offers four distinct operating modes: Charge, Discharge, Test, and Refresh. Each mode can be selected independently for each battery slot.

6.1 Mode Selection

1. After inserting batteries, the charger will default to Charge mode.
2. To select a different mode for a specific slot, press the SLOT button repeatedly until the desired slot is highlighted on the LCD.
3. Press the MODE button repeatedly to cycle through the available modes: Charge, Discharge, Test, Refresh.
4. Once the desired mode is selected, the charger will begin the operation after a few seconds of inactivity or by pressing the MODE button again to confirm.

6.2 Current Selection

The charging current can be adjusted for each slot:

1. While a slot is highlighted (before operation starts), press the CURR. button repeatedly to cycle through available charging currents: 0.25A, 0.5A, 0.75A, 1A.
2. Select a current appropriate for your battery's capacity. Lower currents are generally safer for smaller capacity batteries and can extend battery life.

6.3 Mode Descriptions

• Charge Mode: Charges the battery to its full capacity. The LCD will display charging time, current, voltage, and accumulated capacity.
• Discharge Mode: Discharges the battery to remove the "memory effect" often associated with Ni-CD batteries. This mode is useful before a refresh cycle.
• Test Mode: Measures the actual capacity of the battery. The charger will fully charge the battery, then discharge it to measure its capacity, and finally recharge it. The measured capacity in mAh/Ah will be displayed.
• Refresh Mode: Designed to restore older batteries to their maximum capacity. This mode typically involves multiple charge-discharge cycles to break down crystal formations within the battery.
