Santa could have put examples in the manual
 
<div>Well Santa was good this year, bringing me the new Hitech 4X charger.</div><div></div><div>Unfortunately, the manual is short on providing specifics about how to charge Nimh batteries.I&rsquo;m a little confused as to how to setup the charging current for both manual and automatic mode.</div><div></div><div>Is the current I specify the current of the battery or the max current to charge the battery?</div><div></div><div>I see no ware in the manual or the programming selection where I specify the voltage of the batteries I charging.</div><div></div><div>How are you guys programming these?</div><div></div><div>Pete</div>

In manual the setpoint is the current , in auto the setpoint is the max current. (current you want to charge the pack at)

Ok - Thanks,

Where would one find what the optimal charge current should be set to in Auto mode?

Is it a function of the battary pack current?

There's no seting except for the "max" since the charger is doing it "automatically"
