Introduction:
With this processor controlled capacity tester you can measure the capacity of the
batteries. You can set the cut off voltage (The voltage limit where you want to stop
the discharge), the discharging current, and the charging time between the cycles.
You can program 1-8 cycles. The tester measures the charged/discharged Ah and the
elapsed time since the start of each cycle.
Menu System:
The main menu consists of 5 screens. You can change between the screens with the
Display Change button.

Charging time
Enter 02h
You can change the charging time between 1-99 hours. ( up / down arrow button.)
After setting the charging time press the Display Change button to skip to the
Discharging Current screen.
Disch Current
05,5 A
You can set the discharging current between 0.3A and 25A . (0.1A steps) (up/down
arrow button.)
After setting the discharging current press the Display Change button to skip to the
Cut off voltage screen
Sampl interval
Automatic
Operation Manual 1.0 Captest PD-01
The required sampling interval can be selected. We recommend to use the automatic
sampling. This uses 2000 points ,so the file will be small, and easily edited in the
software. If you record a very long test, then the resouluton will be not very high.
After finishing the setting of the parameters, press the Start/Stop Button to go back to
the main menu screens.
Pressing the Display Change button you can see the result of the each cycle.
To start the test with discharging, change to the discharge Screen (See menu system)
and press the Start button for 1 second.
To start the test with charging, change to the Charge Screen (See menu system) and
press the Start button for 1 second.

Before the tester starts the process it checks if there is a charger connected to it. If not,
it will ask you “ Charger Ready?? “.
Cycle Process Ah
Elapsed time: This is the time since the beginning of the actual process (charging or
discharging)
Voltage: The voltage of the battery (during discharging), or the actual charging
voltage (during charging)
Ah: The actual charged or discharged A*h since the beginning of the actual process
(charging or discharging)
Pressing the Display Change button you can see the result of the finished cycles.
Pendrive suspend:
Before removing the USB Stick from the tester , make sure that the actual test is
finished. Then enter the Pendrive Suspend menu and press the start button. Remove
the pendrive and plug it into the PC USB Slot and open the files with Akku.exe
The test file on the pendrive is finished when the test is finished or stopped by
START/STOP button. Removing the pendrive or disconnecting the battery from
the tester during the test ,will cause the loss of test data of the entire test.
