Guida all'installazione
1. Disimballaggio e controlli iniziali
Ensure all components are present. Note that the power adapter and main charging cable are not included and must be purchased separately.
2. Aggiornamento del firmware
If you experience any issues, such as buttons not working, please visit the ISDT official website to download and update the latest firmware. The charger supports firmware updates via its USB-C port.

3. BattAir Plugin Setup (Optional)
The ISDT Q6 Retro supports BattAir smart battery technology. To utilize this feature, you will need BattAir Plug-ins (available for 2S, 3-4S, and 5-6S LiPo batteries). The 3-4S and 5-6S plug-ins are typically included with compatible chargers, while 2S plug-ins may need to be purchased separately.
- Scarica l'App: Cercare "BattAir" in your smartphone's app store (Google Play Store for Android, Apple App Store for iOS) and install the application.
- Connect BattAir Plug-in: Connect the appropriate BattAir Plug-in to your battery's balance lead. Ensure the negative pin of the balance lead aligns with the negative pin on the plug-in for proper data transmission.
- Initialize Battery in App: Open the BattAir app. The app will detect an "Unknown Battery." Select it to initialize. Input the battery's chemistry (e.g., LiPo 4.20V), cell count (e.g., 6S), charge rate (e.g., 1C), discharge rate (e.g., 30C), and capacity (e.g., 5200mAh). You can also add a manufacturer name and an optional password.
- Salva impostazioni: Press the "Save" button in the app, then press the physical button on the BattAir Plug-in to save the settings to the dongle. The dongle will store these settings, allowing the charger to automatically recognize the battery's parameters.
Video: This video demonstrates the setup and use of ISDT BattAir Plug-ins with an ISDT Air8 charger, which is conceptually similar to the Q6 Retro. It shows how to connect the plug-ins to LiPo batteries, download and configure settings via the BattAir smartphone app, and initiate charging with automatic parameter recognition.
Istruzioni per l'uso
1. Basic Charging with BattAir (if applicable)
Once your BattAir Plug-in is configured via the app, connect the battery's main power lead to the charger's output port and the BattAir Plug-in to the balance port. The charger will automatically detect the battery type and pre-configured settings. Simply press the 'Start' button to begin the charging cycle. You can only adjust settings via the BattAir app, not directly on the charger for BattAir-enabled batteries.
2. Storage Discharge
The BattAir Plug-ins also offer a storage discharge function. This will slowly discharge the battery to a safe storage voltage (e.g., 3.8V per cell) using a small internal resistor. This is useful for maintaining battery health when not in use for extended periods.
3. Monitoraggio
The charger's 2.4" IPS display will show real-time charging data, including individual cell voltages, volume totaletage, current, and capacity. You can also monitor this information remotely via the "ISD Link" app on your smartphone.
