High Power Storage Mode on PL6?

[Underscore]

Hi,
is there a way to increase the max. current for LiPo storage charge beyond the 10A? I was trying to find a setting in the CCS, but without success

Yes. Its in the preset library. #9 LiPo High Power Storage Charge.

On My PL6 Preset #9 is A123 charge, preset 7 is the only lipo store charge with a max of 10a
my firmware version is V1.10

In addition to the 23 live presets the charger has a preset library which stores 30 presets. These presets can copied into a live preset position using the charger console or the Powerlab software.

The step by step guide for copying library presets using the console is in the manual, page 35.

My library only has 25 presets and No. #9 is Fast charge for A123 batteries? I followed all instruction on page 35 but my library looks exactly the same as my live presets??

Just checked on my 1.10 firmware PL6 and you are correct. The High Power storage preset is not loaded in the library stored on the charger. You will need to get the FUIM3 to load the updated library presets that include the high power storage preset. You'll want the FUIM3 anyway, to load the latest firmware that includes the HV Chemistry as soon as its released.

I thought that might be the case that you need the software to access the extra settings in the library, I also read in another thread that you need to use the software to get the cell charged up to 4.27v

oh well just 2 more sleeps till I get my USB cable
