The instructions show the proper setting for both nicad and nimh batteries. I use the setting mentioned in the instructions, and it seems to work fine.
As far as what it does...... Here's the deal as far as I understand it. When a rechargeable battery hits peak charge, there is a large swing in voltage. This setting tells the charger what size swing in voltage to look for, so it knows when to stop charging.
There is also a setting where you enter the capacity of the battery (in amps). This setting acts as a backup. If the charger doesn’t see the peak charge swing in voltage, it will shut off when it has finished charging the number of amps that you set.
Does this make any sense?
