4. Configuració

4.1 Connexió d'alimentació

The D400 charger can be powered by either AC (Alternating Current) or DC (Direct Current) sources.

• Alimentació CA: Connect the provided AC power cord to the AC input port on the charger and then to a standard 100-240V AC mains outlet.
• Potència CC: Connect an external DC power source (11-18V) to the DC input port on the charger. Ensure the polarity is correct.

4.2 Connexió de la bateria

Before connecting any battery, ensure the charger is powered on and the correct battery type and charging parameters are selected on the display.

1. Connect the main charging cable (e.g., banana connectors with XT60) to the appropriate output socket (CHA or CHB) on the charger.
2. Connect the main charging cable to your battery.
3. Connect the battery's balance lead to the corresponding balance lead socket on the charger. This is crucial for balanced charging of multi-cell batteries.
4. Repeat for the second channel if charging two batteries simultaneously.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

5.1 Procés de càrrega bàsic

After connecting the battery, the charger will typically detect the battery type or prompt you to select it. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the charging parameters.

1. Navigate through the menu using the control buttons to select the desired charging mode (e.g., Charge, Balance Charge, Fast Charge, Storage, Discharge).
2. Select the battery type (e.g., LiPo, NiMH) and the number of cells (e.g., 1S-7S for LiPo).
3. Set the desired charging current (Amps). Refer to your battery's specifications for recommended charging rates.
4. Confirm the settings and start the charging process. The charger will display real-time charging information.

5.2 Dual-Channel Operation

The D400 features two independent charging channels (CHA and CHB), allowing you to charge two different batteries simultaneously with different settings.

• Connect the first battery to CHA and configure its settings.
• Connect the second battery to CHB and configure its settings independently.
• Start charging for both channels.

5.3 Distribució d'energia

The charger supports intelligent power distribution. For example, if the total power is 400W, Channel 1 can draw 300W while Channel 2 draws 100W. Note that the maximum power for Channel 2 is 200W, while Channel 1 can reach 400W. This feature optimizes charging speed when using both channels.

5.4 DC Power Supply Function

Channel 2 of the D400 can act as a DC power supply, providing a maximum of 150 watts DC power. This allows you to power various DC devices directly from the charger.

• Ensure no battery is connected to Channel 2 for charging.
• Select the DC Power Supply mode for Channel 2 from the menu.
• Establiu el volum de sortida desitjattage (6-15V DC adjustable).
• Connect your DC device to the DC Output port on Channel 2.

5.5 App Remote Control and Monitoring

The charger may support remote control and monitoring via a dedicated mobile application (e.g., ISDT Link or similar). This allows you to view charging status, adjust parameters, and end charging processes remotely.

6. Manteniment
