3.10 Battery(Only IT6500C Characteristic)


When connected to IT6500C Series power supply, the control software has battery
charge/discharge test function. The user can select charge or discharge mode in the
software interface and set charge/discharge voltage and current. Click “Run” for
charge or discharge.
If auto stop is required, you need to set corresponding stop conditions. When any of

⚫ Battery Mode
Charge: to charge the battery.
Discharge: to discharge the battery.
⚫ Work setting
Voltage: charge or discharge voltage.
Current: charge or discharge current.
⚫ Stop conditions
Voltage: stop when voltagevalue reaches set value
Current: stop when current value reaches set value
Capacity: stop when charge capacity reaches set value.
Time: stop when the battery runs to the set time.
⚫ Current/capacity/run time: Real-time value of current/capacity/charge or
discharge time. The wave display area at bottom displays real-time wave. The
horizontal axis is time, and vertical axis is current and capacity.

as shown below.

Curve zoom out


1. Right click the curve graph and select “Partial Zoom”. At the bottom of cursor
will display a small rectangle box.
2. Move the cursor of small rectangle box to pull out a bigger rectangle box to define

3. Release the mouse left key and the image will be promptly zoomed out.

4. To resume dynamic records, right click the curve graph and choose “Resume”.

Translation view
1. Move the cursor shape to any position of the horizontal coordinate axis (Time
Axis) and the mouse will change to be a hand.
2. Hold down the mouse left key to move the mouse. When moving left, you will see
the curve after the current time; when moving right, you will see the curve before
the current time.
3. Similarly, you can translate the voltage/current coordinate to view curve.
