Specifications

FX3

Operating Instructions

This product is designed specifically for Fujifilm NP-W235 camera battery. It supports charging batteries in both slots simultaneously. The output current is adjusted automatically according to input current to reach the optimal charging setting. This product shall NOT be used with other batteries not specified in this manual.

Charging Modes

The FX3 has 2 charging modes (QC Mode and Standard Mode).
QC Mode: The FX3 is QC input available. When connecting to a QC supported device (or adapter), the display will show “Quick Charge” on the upper left corner. In this status (Input Voltage: 9V), it can charge
2 batteries simultaneously with a max output current of 1,000mA in either slot, or 1 battery with a max output current of 1,500mA.
Standard Mode: In this status (Input Voltage: 5V), it will charge the batteries with a max output current of 1,000mA.

Automatic Current Adjustment

The FX3’s actual output current depends on the maximum power supplied from the USB power source. The output current will be adjusted based on the actual power being inputted to the device, increasing its efficiency while shortening charging duration. When the battery temperature is too high, the FX3 will automatically cease the charging process to protect the battery.

Battery Health Monitoring

Once the battery is inserted, the FX3 will proceed with an initial low current test charge to diagnose the battery status. After the diagnosis, the battery status will be shown as Good, Normal or Poor.

Note : Re-insert the battery when “Poor” appears on screen to eliminate the possibility of a poor battery contact, replace the battery if “Poor” comes up on screen consistently.

Reverse Polarity and Anti-Short Circuit Protection

The FX3 makes use of the mechanical reverse polarity protection. Inserting incompatible batteries or incorrect battery installation will prevent the initiation of the charging process. The error message “EE EE” will come up on the LCD display when a short circuited battery is installed.

Note : When the display shows the error message “EE EE”, please put the battery into the original battery charger for 30 minutes to activate it.
If it is still unable to get charged after this, please replace the battery.

Over Discharged Battery Activation

The FX3 will automatically activate over discharged battery caused by improper storage or misuse.
Note : This function only available for batteries with protective circuit.
