It is also possible to display the individual processes on the screen in graphic form; you
can switch between the two types of display by pressing the 'MODE' or 'ESC' button.
This screen shot shows the charge curve for a NiMH battery which is currently being char-
ged in linear mode. The top line of the screen displays the current charge parameters for
the process in hand, i.e.:
0 0 : : 2 2 6 6 : : 1 1 3 3 3 3 . . 0 0 1 1 A A 1 1 0 0 . . 8 8 5 5 6 6 V V

The charger's software includes the facility to zoom into any area of the graph which is of
particular interest, as if you were viewing it under a magnifier; the selected area is then
centred on the Y-axis. The bottom line shows the voltage values of the centreline in the
form of the voltage 'Vc'. You can offset this in manual mode (M) by marking it using the
'3-D hotkey'. The offset between the centreline and the X-axis is determined by the varia-
ble voltage 'Vr'. This facility is very useful, as it enables you to study important areas of
the graph at high resolution.
In the bottom line of the graphic display you can also select whether the process is to be
manual (M) or automatic (A), and define the zoom factor (X1); the available range is once
to five times (X1 - X5).

Operating Instructions
POWER PEAK Infinity 3
If you select a charge / discharge cycle, the working dis-
play looks similar to the previous example: the screen dis-
plays the message 'CYCLE' while the charger checks the
battery. The screen shots printed here show the top and

cess; in this case while the battery is being discharged.
As well as all the parameters for the current process, the
1 1 / / 2 2 screen displays the mode of operation for the current

phase, the cycle sequence and the cycle number. During

information.
• Process time (hours, minutes and seconds)
• Actual charge current (A)
• Actual charge voltage (V)
The bottom line shows special voltage values which are
used by the charger to display voltage values more accu-
rately.

Discharge curves are also displayed on-screen when
such a process is in progress, and they can be processed
in the same way, i.e. as described above. The screen
shoot printed here shows a linear discharge process
which has been running for 16 minutes and 18 seconds;
the discharge current is 2.01 A, and the actual voltage of
the battery is currently 9.854 V.
