5. Arahan Operasi

5.1 Butang Kawalan

The Vapcell BL4 features four control buttons below the LCD screen:

• JENIS: Selects the battery chemistry (Li-ion, LiFePO4, Ni-Mh/Ni-Cd).
• ARAHAN: Selects the operating mode (Charge, Test, Storage, Repair).
• DISPLAY: Cycles through displayed information for the selected slot. Long press to enter program mode.
• SEMASA: Adjusts the charging current.

5.2 Battery Type Selection (TYPE Button)

After inserting a battery, the charger will attempt to auto-detect its type. If incorrect or for LiFePO4/Li-ion 4.35V/Li-ion 1.5V batteries, press the JENIS button to cycle through the available battery chemistries:

• Li-ion 4.2V
• LiFePO4 3.2V
• Ni-Mh Ni-Cd 1.48V
• Li-ion 4.35V
• Li-ion 1.5V (for specific 1.5V Li-ion batteries)

Figure 3: Type Button Function. This image illustrates the function of the 'TYPE' button, used to manually select the battery chemistry for charging, such as Li-ion, LiFePO4, or Ni-Mh/Ni-Cd.

5.3 Operating Modes (MODE Button)

Tekan ke MODE butang untuk memilih salah satu daripada mod pengendalian berikut:

• caj: Standard charging mode. The charger will charge the battery until full and automatically cut off the current.
• Ujian: Measures the real capacity of the battery. This involves a full discharge followed by a full charge, with capacity measured during the discharge phase.
• Storan: Charges or discharges Li-ion batteries to a nominal voltage of 3.7V, which is ideal for long-term storage to preserve battery health.
• pembaikan: Designed to activate deeply discharged Li-ion batteries or to reduce the memory effect in Ni-Mh/Ni-Cd batteries.

Figure 4: Mode Button Function. This image demonstrates the 'MODE' button, which allows users to choose between Charge, Test, Storage, and Repair functions for their batteries.

5.4 Display Information (DISPLAY Button)

Tekan ke PAPARAN button to cycle through various real-time parameters for the selected battery slot on the LCD screen. Information includes:

• Jenis Bateri
• Internal Resistance (mΩ)
• Voltage (V)
• Arus Pengecasan (mA)
• Elapsed Time (h:m)
• Charged/Discharged Capacity (mAh/Wh)
• Bateri Percentage (%)

Tekan lama pada PAPARAN button will enter program mode, allowing for advanced settings (refer to specific program mode instructions if applicable, not detailed in this basic manual).

5.5 Current Selection (CURRENT Button)

Tekan ke SEMASA button to adjust the charging current for the selected slot. Available charge currents are:

• 0.25A x 4 slots
• 0.5A x 4 slots
• 1.0A x 4 slots
• 1.5A x 2 slots (e.g., slot 1 & 2)
• 2.0A x 2 slots (e.g., slot 1 & 2)
• 2.5A x 1 slot (e.g., slot 1)
• 3.0A x 1 slot (e.g., slot 1)

The charger intelligently distributes current. If multiple batteries are inserted, the maximum current per slot may be limited. Slot 1 supports the highest individual current (up to 3A).
