4.2 Selecting Discharge Mode

The BD250 offers two primary discharge modes:

• Constant Power (CP): Maintains a constant power output during discharge.
• Туруктуу ток (CC): Maintains a constant current output during discharge.

Use the rotary dial to navigate through the menu options and select your desired discharge mode. Press the dial to confirm your selection.

4.3 Setting Discharge Parameters

After selecting the discharge mode, you will need to set the following parameters:

• Cutoff Voltage: Томtage at which the discharge process will automatically stop. This is crucial for battery health.
• Discharge Current/Power: The desired current (for CC mode) or power (for CP mode) at which the battery will be discharged.

Rotate the dial to adjust the values and press to confirm each setting. Ensure that the cutoff voltage is appropriate for your battery type (e.g., 3.0V per cell for LiPo, 3.3V per cell for LiHV, 0.9V per cell for NiMH).

4.4 Starting and Stopping Discharge

1. Once all parameters are set, navigate to the 'Start' option using the rotary dial.
2. Press the rotary dial to begin the discharge process. The display will show real-time discharge data.
3. To stop the discharge manually at any time, press the rotary dial again. The discharge will also stop automatically once the cutoff voltagе жетти.

4.5 PC Software for Data Analysis

The BD250 can be connected to a computer for advanced data logging and analysis. This allows for a more detailed understanding of battery performance over time.

1. Download and install the official SkyRC BD250 PC software from the manufacturer's webсайт.
2. Connect the BD250 to your PC using the provided USB data cable.
3. Launch the PC software. It will automatically detect the connected BD250.
