time, the current voltage of the battery and the
current discharged capacity in mAh.
For maximum safety during the discharge process, the charger may throttle
the discharge current lower than you programmed. Whether the charger
will automatically lower the discharge current will vary based on the specific
battery and discharge current you programmed.

Once saved, the data programming presets can be loaded at a later time when
