 Hyperion EOS0610I DUO II-Dual Port All In One Battery Charger & Balancer

NEW! Hyperion EOS 0610i DUO2 1S-6S 16N CHARGER, with Integrated LBA10A balancers

Page 2 of 6

GENERAL SETUP and NOTES

The EOS0610iDUOII comes with male 4mm Bullet connectors (aka 'banana plugs') attached to the power INPUT cables.

These cables are appropriate for attaching directly to most high-quality AC-DC power supply units, such as the BK Precision

(USA) model 1692 ( 1 5V, 40A, 600W). Also included are large Terminal Clips with matching 4mm female bullet connectors, for  attaching directly to 1 2V􀂚24V lead-acid batteries.

Output side 4mm Male Connector + Cable assemblies (#HP-EOSOUTCORD x2) are also supplied. Carefully solder your preferred battery connector to the free ends, with correct Red (+) / Black (-) Polarity. If you make up additional output cables, note that MINIMUM inner cable diameter should be 2.5mm (14ga) and MAXIMUM cable length is 20cm (8").

It is critically important that you use either a fully charged 12V􀂚24V lead-acid automobile battery (or better, deep-cycle marine battery) - or a high quality AC-DC power supply in the range of 12V to 28V DC output, with minimum current rating of

lOA. When charging high voltage batteries at high current (charger output 360W) the AC/DC Power Supply (PS) should be 1 5V minimum with rating of 350W or more, to insure reliable performance. Note that PS load control features DO allow you to use lower-rated power supplies reliably, but that total charger output wattage will be limited accordingly. (See details later in this manual).

If you have any trouble charging after confirming that input and output cables are properly connected and of the proper materials, be sure to check the charger on an automotive battery. Many problems are associated with poor quality or inadequate switching AC-DC power supplies. Use PS Load control as needed to reduce load on your PS, or upgrade your Ps.

If, after carefully reading the following pages on usage, you have any difficulty using the charger please refer to the troubleshooting guide and warranty terms at the end of these instructions. It is best to carefully check your charger before making a return, as problems in setup, cabling, or power supply are much more common than defects in the charger. Chargers returned by the user and later found not defective will only be returned to the user at the user's expense and may incur a service charge.

Memory Positions for Charging, and Settings per Battery Type

Ten MEMORY positions - On Each Channel - M0 to M9 - allow you to set parameters for CHARGING your packs, such as BATTERY TYPE [NiMH, NiCd, LiPo, Lilon, LiFeP04, (Al23), Lead-ACid], battery CAPACITY, Charge RATE, Cutoff Voltage, Temperature, and more.

BATTERY CHARGING - Let's try it once to learn it. .. .

(Example: LiPo battery with balance connector. Follow the flow charts as you go ... )

MODE: Before Charging/Discharging is started: Scrolls between MENUS for MEMORY (Charging), USER SETUP, DATA VIEW, BALANCER. MODE also selects SOLO and SYNC modes for charging packs greater than 6S

L MODE: During Charging/Discharging: Scrolls between VIEW MODES: MEMORY, DATA VIEW, And DATA

QUICK VIEW screens.

UP/DOWN: Scroll through the settings within Menus, Data Views, and Selects values for Settings

ENTER: Selects any Setting to CHANGE / Charge START / Charge STOP

CH: (not pictured left) Selects which screen you are reading: Port #1 or Port #2.

Attach the charger to an appropriate DC power supply. Connect the Output Cable 4mm bullet connectors to the Red (+) and Black (-) CH#l output port on left side of the charger. Connect your Battery Main Connector to the Mating Connector you have previously soldered to the Output Cable set. Connect your Lithium Polymer battery Balance Connector to the EOS Balance Multi-Adapter. ALWAYS USE THE BALANCER(s) WHEN CHARGING LiTHIUM BASED PACKS FOR SAFETY!!

(See end of these instructions for more information and balance multi-adapters for various brand lithium packs).

Note: Always connect the Output Cable set to charger first, then battery. After charging is finished, always disconnect the Battery main wire connectors from Output Cable set first, then disconnect Output Cable set from charger.

After the Welcome screen, the charger will start on CH#l and display the most recently used memory position.

(see ftowchart (2) MEMORY DISPLAY at this time)

Press CH to select which charger or port screen you are reading, ' l or 2' will be shown in the top, right-hand corner

Pressing ENTER once will make the Memory Position start flashing. Flashing values can be changed with UP / DOWN keys.

While Mem Position is flashing, Press DOWN to scroll through the ten available memory positions.

Press ENTER again to confirm the memory position that you wish to use.

From the memory screen, now press DOWN to get to BATT TYPE, press ENTER to start BATT TYPE flashing for selection.

Press DOWN until you see your desired Battery Type (LiPo in this case). Press ENTER to confirm.

Press DOWN again to select Pack Voltage which matches your battery

Note: the Charger shows both pack voltage and the number of cells in Series (S) on this screen, matching the Voltage and Battery Type you have selected. If the "s" and the Voltage don't match your battery, you have the Wrong Battery Type selected (like confusing Lilon 3. 6v with LiPo 3. 7v types). Use UP key to reach BATT TYPE again, and reset BATT TYPE properly.

Press DOWN to get to BATT CAPACITY; press ENTER to make the mAh value flash and adjust with the UP or DOWN buttons until it matches your battery, by increments of lOOmAh (to max of 50,000mAh). Press ENTER to confirm.

If your battery is 730mAh, for example, you could set this to 700mAh. The default CHARGE RATE (set in next screen) for lithium is lC of capacity (equal to 0.7A for a 700mAh setting). But RATE is adjustable independently up to 2C for lithium, so the BATT CAPACITY setting mainly provides additional safety.

Press DOWN to get to CHG CURRENT. This is limited to 2C with respect to the battery capacity for Lithium Polymer (LiPo 3. 7v/cell types) and Lithium Ion (Lilon 3.6v/cell types). CAUTION! For other cell types, there is no restriction, up to the l0A limit of the charger, so BE SURE you know what CHG CURRENT setting to use for your battery (see also below text on cell types).

Press DOWN to TEMPERATURE CUT-OFF. Requires option part #HP-EOSTMPSEN or #HP-EOSl2101-SEN, temp sensor. This is most often used by advanced users for NiMH charging. The Default setting is 50 degrees Celsius.
