Overlander RC6-VSR cycle program not working (same as imax b6)

[Mark_C 198]

I think this charger is the same as the bmax i6 / turnigy.

Trying to get it to run cycles to format a new nimh battery. 

Relevant section of the manual (7.3):

 

 

I can start a cycle off as described, and it complete the first discharge & charge, showing the 2nd screen as expected, however once its done the first cycle (i.e. one discharge & charge) it shows the last screen shown there, with the outcome of the chrge and discharge for cycle 1. As described I can scroll using INC/DEC buttons to see the other cycles, the battery capacity on all of these is 0, because it hasn't run the cycles. Does anyone know how to make it run all the cycles as programmed ? Either I'm missing something or the function only ever runs one cycle ?

If anything goes wrong there should be an error displayed, battery is not even warm at any stage, so I don't think it has stopped due to any cut feature.

Have you left it long enough to cool down and start the next cycle?

How long is the cooling time delay set to? (Waste Time in settings on iMax B6).

[Mark_C 198]

waste time set to 5 minutes (default), it actually shows a different screen when this period is in effect.

I've left it for over 5 hours on the "results" screen.
