Default Hyperion charger problem

First time out with my new Hyperion EOS 0610i charger today and I ran into a problem.

I have both LiPo packs and NiMh packs. The charger performed flawlessly when charging the LiPo packs, but I could not get it to charge the NiMh packs. The packs are 3800 mah 7-cell packs and have less than 5 cycles on them. I set the charger to charge NiMh and set it on its way. It tallies up 200-250 mah and stops. At first I thought I was mistaken and had already charged the packs. I went ahead and tried to run them and they were obviously discharged.

I put the same packs on a Dynamite Vision Peak charger and they charged right up.

The only thing I can think of is that I still had my balance adapter plugged into the charger. Of course, with the NiMh pack, there was nothing plugged into the adapter. Would this have caused a problem?
