| It will always start from 0 and records the ma's it puts in... If the pack is not very low, it won't put in very much... If your pack was run down (not enough power to fly the machine) and they were 600's, I would think that it would easily put in 600+ma's...
In your manual, page 8, it tells you how to set the delta peak level... I run mine for NiMh's at the highest setting but choose your own setting... ( I recomend at least the mid level of the three...)
Then to get the discharge to work, you must have it on, I believe this is explained on page 22 and then yur pack has to have charge for this to work... It won't discharge an empty or near empty pack... you would have to charge it first...
I use the "reflex" charge most of the time on my packs and run them with the highest delta setting and in the 5A range... (I use 32 cell packs of Ultra Metal 3000 and GP-3300's & I have 6 of these so a few extra minutes don't bother me and the packs stay cooler...)
I have used most of the modes of the charger except the Lithium stuff... I hope to get a couple of those for my V-E soon... I do like the charger and plan on getting a second one this winter...
What is your battery source or power supply??? This can be critical as well if you have your in volt set too high... Again this is adjustable with the "switch-off voltage" setting on page 22...
