Hyperion NET & DUO Series 3 Chargers - User Manual
v4.6+ firmware versions. Visit http://media.hyperion.hk/dn/eos for the newest manuals, firmware, and EOS SUITE PC software
Warnings:
EOS chargers are carefully designed with many built-in safety features, such as
reverse polarity protection, input voltage error warning, and cell-count
mismatch warnings for lithium chemistry batteries. HOWEVER, IT IS THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER TO INSURE THAT THE CHARGER IS
CONFIGURED AND USED IN A SAFE MANNER IN PROPER ENVIRONMENT.
CAUTIONS
Always be sure that the charger is properly configured for the correct
battery type.
ALWAYS
power charger ON
before you attach a
battery to output or balance connectors
.
Be SURE
that your lithium battery pack balance connector matches
the multi-adapter type connected to the charger.
SYNC MODE charging should start with packs at near equal discharge
states (see more details in text)
Be sure that the batteries you charge are capable of charging at the
current (A) rate you select
Never charge batteries unattended
Charge only in a fire-resistant environment, non-flammable surfaces
such as on concrete or brick
Do not charge near easily flammable materials
Do not charge batteries inside a model
Charging outdoors is strongly recommended
Use only high-quality gold 4mm bullet connectors for charge output
cable connection to the charger. See “setup”
Properly insulate and regularly inspect all connectors to eliminate the
possibility of short circuit. Damage caused by output short circuit is
not covered by warranty.
Never allow the charger case to contact an AC/DC power supply case
while powered
Do not drop or cause other shock to the charger, nor subject it to
moisture, condensation or liquids
Do not attempt to charge battery packs made from different types of
cells, a mixture of old and new cells, or cells made with chemistry not
supported by the EOS charger
NEVER attempt to charge “non-rechargeable” cells
Do not open the case of the charger under any circumstances. Doing
so will void the warranty
Keep the charger away from children or pets at all times.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO CHARGE A SINGLE BATTERY ACROSS
BOTH PORTS of a DUO charger or 2x NET chargers.
(example:
a “single unit” 10S pack) DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE CHARGER,
BATTERY, AND WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
PUT SAFETY AHEAD OF ALL OTHER CONSIDERATIONS!
HIGH RISK CHARGING ADVISORY
Avoid charging batteries indoors. If you must charge indoors, or any place injury
or damage to property could occur in the event of fire, then be sure to:
* Keep battery well away from flammables (2 meters or more)
* Contain battery in a heavy fireproof container (such as a brick box)
* Always monitor the charge

1 - Net3-AD has internal AC power supply, or can be connected to DC supply instead (but not both together!). All others are DC-input only.
2 – All DUO series chargers are already internally networked for SYNC of two packs. All NET chargers can SYNC by connecting two of the same
series NET chargers together, with option cable# HP-EOS0610-MSC. For large flight packs, SYNC MODE balance charging of two SEPARATED (split)
packs can be used. After charging, the split packs are series-wired to make the flight pack, like 8S, 9S, 10S, etc…
(so 2x2S=4S up to 2x14S=28S series-wired flight packs are possible, depending on specs of the EOS charger(s) used to SYNC charge)
