CELL SPY+ INSTRUCTIONS |
|
Thanks for purchasing a Common Sense RC Cell Spy Plus -the |
|
most convenient way to check the balance and voltage of your 2 6 " |
|
cell Lipo packs. Larger packs can be checked as well. |
|
This unit will read the individual voltages of the cells in your Lipo
pack. It has |
|
2.5 mm pin spacing, which is used by Common Sense RC as well as almost |
|
a other Lipo manufacturers. If your battery pack has 2mm spacing (used by
" |
|
Thunder Power and CePro) you will need to use our Part# TP2UB adapter |
|
to convert the spacing to 2.Smm. |
|
To use your Cell Spy Plus with a 2-6 cell Lipo pack, |
|
simply plug it into the balance connector of your battery |
|
pack, being sure to connect the negative port on your |
|
balance connector to the negative pin of the Cell Spy |
|
Plus (the negative pin is the one furthest to the right of |
|
- |
|
|
|
The unit will power up and begin displaying voltages from your pack.
Allow |
|
about 6 seconds for the voltage reading to stabilize when you connect to
a |
|
pack. |
|
The display cycles through the individual cell voltages. The first number
on |
|
the display indicates which cell is being checked. The next three numbers |
|
show that cell's voltage. See below for examples. |

|
To test packs with more than six cells, simply start at the negative port
on the |
|
balance plug, and once you have checked the first six 1-7, |
|
move the checker up the balance plug so that pin 1 on the checker is |
|
plugged into port 7 on the balance plug. Repeat as necessary, moving the |
|
checker six pins up each time. |
|
When you're done checking voltages, be sure to disconnect the Cell Spy to |
|
prevent it from slowly discharging your pack. |
