5. Seadistamine

5.1 Toiteühendus

1. Vahelduvvoolu toide: Connect the AC power cord to the charger's AC input port, then plug the other end into a standard wall outlet (100-240V AC).
2. Alalisvoolu toide: Alternatively, connect the DC input cable (with alligator clips) to the charger's DC input port. Connect the red clip to the positive (+) terminal and the black clip to the negative (-) terminal of a 11-18V DC power source (e.g., a 12V car battery).

The charger will power on, and the LCD screen will illuminate.

5.2 Aku ühendamine

1. Connect the appropriate charging lead (e.g., Banana plug to Deans adapter) to the charger's main output terminals (red to red, black to black).
2. Connect the other end of the charging lead to your battery's main power connector.
3. For LiPo, LiHV, Li-Ion, or LiFe batteries, also connect the battery's balance lead to the appropriate slot on the JST-XH balance adapter board, then connect the adapter board to the charger's balance port. Ensure the correct cell count slot is used.

6. Kasutusjuhised
