Default Charger issue

Hope someone can help me with this?

X-Drive 6 4 way multi charger. Works perfectly well charging my shorty lipos for off road, however I've just started 1/12th oval again and need to charge 4 cell NiMh too.

Changed the settings on the charger to NiMh, set the charge amps to 1C, and away we go. However on 3 of the 4 channels after a few seconds I get a "high voltage error" and charging stops.

These are new packs, and on the 1 channel that still seems to work I have no issue with any of the packs.

Is there a charge parameter that perhaps I've overlooked in the settings that could be causing this to happen?

Thanks in advance.

Quick update. Managed to download the instruction manual and try a few different settings but with no success. Still getting the "battery high voltage error" message.

Switched to my old quad charger (the one where the displays have dimmed to the point they are barely legible) and that charges fine. So it's obviously something that's gone wrong with the GT Power charger. Still fine for LiPo, just not for 4 cell NiMh
