Some updates...
https://mega.nz/file/A5FhXSAR#jrTVe6OxtA9ZNsgcEMbTy-n4JKNZdlYJrlcHuUD-b3Y <- archive updated

RD60062_V1.41.1k.bin (RD6006)
RD60065_V1.43.1k.bin (RD6006P) <- file updated
RD60121_V1.36.1k.bin (RD6012)
RD60181_V1.38.1k.bin (RD6018)

Archive updated
due to small bug in RD60065_V1.43.1k.bin (shifted and flickering string mV (when enabled) with enabled style 7-seg...).

* Bug fixes
  ... Now the 'POWER' button turns off the power supply without leaving the screensaver mode.
  ... Buttons 'SHIFT', 'MEM, 'I-SET', 'V-SET' will not be blocked in the screensaver mode.

* Menu "--- Battery Charger ---" ("--- Заряд АКБ ---")
  + New option "AutoSelectMEMn" ("Автовыбор MEMn");
          Automatically sets the specified memory cell when connecting the battery,
          and restores the previous settings when the battery is disconnected (if nothing was changed).

* Menu Settings: "--- Units ---" ("--- Единицы ---")
  + New option "Voltage" ("Напряжение") [V/mV]; If the voltage is less than 1V, then it will be displayed in mV.
          Note: If the voltage is less than 990mV (plus some delay), then switches to display in mV,
                   if the voltage >= 1V, then switches to display in V.
  + New option "Current" ("Ток") [A/mA];  If the current is less than 1A, then it will be displayed in mA.
          Note: If the current is less than 990mA (plus some delay), then switches to display in mA,
                   if current >= 1A, then switches to display in A.
          Perhaps in the future it will be necessary to adjust the delay and frames for hysteresis.
    
* Menu Settings: "--- Date and Time ---" ("--- Дата и время ---")
  + New option "RTC Calibration" ("Калибровка RTC") [0..127]; To calibrate the clock (RTC).
          Note: Read how it works in AN2604 on the website st.com (there is also a table in the document).
          see in attach
    
* Menu Home: "--- Layout 1 ---" ("--- Дизайн 1 ---")
  + New option "Show TIMER" ("Отобр. TIMER"); Enables timer display when the output is turned on.

RD6006P:
The external temperature measurement is only displayed to 1 °C resolution, but the "ADC(T*ex)" value ... is much more granular, better than 0.1 °C resolution would be possible.
It does not seem to be possible to get the ADC values directly.

Now can read RAW ADC Values
Here is registers

Code: [Select]

    case 546: value = g_ADCSystemTemp; break;
    case 547: value = g_ADCBatteryTemp; break;
    case 548: value = g_ADCInputVoltage; break;
    case 549: value = g_ADCBatteryVoltage; break;
    case 550: value = (uint16_t)(g_ADCOutputVoltage >> 16); break;
    case 551: value = (uint16_t)(g_ADCOutputVoltage); break;
    case 552: value = (uint16_t)(g_ADCOutputCurrent >> 16); break;
    case 553: value = (uint16_t)(g_ADCOutputCurrent); break;


when cycling through the different values in the bottom right (using the up/down arrows), there is an option to display internal and external temperature alone, but there is no indication which one is which. When both are displayed at once (and thus much smaller), it says (INT) and (EXT) behind the values. Maybe add that to the "only one value" mode.

Done

Some small bug in RD60065_V1.43.1k.bin
when "Voltage" ("Напряжение") = mV
combined with 7-seg style, the voltage string is shifted to the right and V is flickering.

I am not sure if I have killed my RD6012P.

It powers on fine.  But as soon as I press the on/off button to start powering whatever I have connected the volts drop to about 1V and about 0.003 amps and the CC emblem comes up.

Remove the load and the volts go back to whatever it was set at.  I cannot even power a single LED.

The output fuse blew out.

Thanks.   I had it connected to a 12v car battery using it as a charger as I was desperate to charge a battery to start a vehicle and had nothing else, so that must have done it.

I had an initial look and saw the fuse was totally missing out of the holder.   But then I noticed they seem to have soldered in a fuse and also soldered in a fuse holder, then further research says the fuse holder is for emergency use only, under 10 amp output for short periods of time. The replacement fuse is a  "Very Fast Acting SMD 1808 20A 65V Surface Mount Fuse"

I am half tempted to buy a fuse holder for a more common round type fuse and solder the wires to the pad. Or at the very least solder on some wires and solder a replacement SMD fuse to them.  Not that I will be using it as a battery charger any more after this.

Hi all,

I was thinking to donate 10$ to UniSoft for a 6024 . Are there other volunteers ?

@Unisoft - please confirm if enough founds are collected for a 6024 you will consider getting a 6204 and try build your customized fw version as well.

I have asked for his PayPal account, but no replay so far.

Is there some link to donate . Is not very clear (to me anyway)

The link was repeated 2 times on this page. Now 3 times:

But donationalerts does. So you can use a paypal account to donate (via donationalerts).

OK , 10E donated for rd6024

Just made a my own contribution!

Hello, also contributed to RD6024.

Don't mean to spam the thread, but found a good deal on these with quite a few available. Meanwell SD-1000H-48 for $80. Adjustable output up to 60vdc and 115vac in. (US). I grabbed one to use with a 6018 I have coming.

They are however too LARGE for the chassis, but given the price/performance, I think it is worth considering. I'll extend the meanwell out the rear of chassis once parts arrive.

Awesome work by the group on firmware!!

That's a DC to DC converter. Wow. Solid first post by me. Also, back to the drawing board to find a good back end. Guess the rsp-1000-48 would work. Still a big one though..

Any suggestions for a nice SMPS for backend of the 6018?

[.RC.]

Put a new fuse into my RD6012P.

Put it up off the PCB as even though I doubt I will ever blow another one.   At least there is no risk of PCB damage, should I have to replace it.

[bateau020]

euhm, that socket next to it was made for replacement fuses. No need to solder.

[.RC.]

The socket next to it says in the instructions only for under 10 amp short time usage.

I do not know why that is, or why they put a soldered on fuse there, in a spot where it is easy to damage other components when desoldering.

[bateau020]

OK, strange. That restriction is not there on the non-P versions, nor on the RD6006P. Even the RD6018 does not have such a warning. Maybe they are being overly cautious or maybe there is a real problem?

Elsewhere I found the following info:
RD6006 -1808 SMD Fuse Fast Acting Ceramic 10A 
RD6012 -1808 SMD Fuse Fast Acting Ceramic 20A
RD6018 -1808 SMD Fuse Fast Acting Ceramic 25A

Is it possible to make RED led mod with RK6006 (like it can be done on RD series) when overcurrent protection kicks in?

[ndemarco]

I just sent $30. I'm awed by what UniSoft has done. Thanks.

[bnae38]

I can't seem to find the info on the front power switch modification mentioned in the manual. This would allow turning on the backend supply with the front panel power switch. Has anyone successfully implemented?

My thought was to use j2.4 (20ma max) to drive a fet which will drive a relay (250v/20a) to turn on the back end supply.

Would have to add a 12v low power wallwort to the mix and connect through a diode to the rd6018 too. Would use same 12v to fet for relay.

I do not have an enable pin on the meanwell se-600-48 I ended up purchasing.

Any thoughts?
