4. Modi Operattivi
The MC5000 offers six distinct operating modes to manage your cylindrical batteries effectively. Use the scroll wheel on the device or the SkyCharger app to select and configure these modes for each independent slot.
- Ħlas: This mode charges the battery to its full capacity. You can set the charge current and target voltage based on the battery chemistry.
- Ħażna: Jiċċarġja jew jiskarika l-batterija għal volum speċifikutage level, typically around 3.8V for Li-ion batteries, which is ideal for long-term storage to preserve battery health.
- Ħruġ: Discharges the battery to a user-defined voltage or until a specified capacity is removed. Useful for testing actual capacity or preparing batteries for storage.
- Ċiklu: Performs a sequence of charge and discharge cycles to measure battery capacity and improve performance. You can configure the number of cycles and charge/discharge parameters.
- Aġġorna: Designed to rejuvenate older NiMH/NiCd batteries by repeatedly discharging and charging them to break down memory effect and restore capacity.
- Break-in: A specialized mode for new batteries, particularly NiMH/NiCd, to condition them for optimal performance by performing a slow charge followed by a discharge and then a full charge.

5. Manutenzjoni
5.1 Tindif
To maintain optimal performance and longevity of your MC5000 charger:
- Ensure the charger is disconnected from power before cleaning.
- Uża drapp ratba u niexfa biex timsaħ in-naħa ta 'barra tal-apparat.
- Tużax prodotti tat-tindif li joborxu, solventi, u lanqas tgħaddasx l-apparat fl-ilma.
- Periodically check the battery slots and cooling vents for dust or debris and gently remove them using a soft brush or compressed air.
5.2 Ħażna

6 Issolvi l-problemi
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your MC5000 charger.
| Problema | Kawża Possibbli | Soluzzjoni |
|---|---|---|
| Il-ċarġer ma jixgħelx. | No power, incorrect power adapter, faulty cable. | Ensure the PD 3.0 65W USB-C power adapter is correctly connected and functioning. Try a different USB-C cable or power source. |
| Il-batterija mhux qed tiċċarġja/tiskarika. | Incorrect battery type selected, poor contact, battery fault. | Verify the battery type and settings in the chosen operating mode. Ensure the battery is properly seated in the slot. Check battery health. |
| "Capacity Limit" error during Refresh/Discharge. | Battery capacity setting is too low for the actual battery. | Increase the battery capacity setting in the charger's menu or via the app. It is often recommended to set the capacity 20% higher than the nominal capacity for certain operations. |
| Kwistjonijiet ta 'konnessjoni Bluetooth. | Bluetooth off, app not paired, interference. | Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile device. Restart the SkyCharger app and the MC5000. Re-pair the devices if necessary. |
| Charger feels warm/fans are running. | Normal operation, high current charging/discharging. | This is normal, especially during high-current operations. The smart triple-fan cooling system is designed to manage heat. Ensure vents are not blocked. |
