Outback Power Systems M-Series - Manual (Page 2)

The sealed OutBack M-Series inverter/charger is the most rugged design in the world. Conformal coated circuit boards, powder coated
die-cast aluminum chassis with gaskets and o-ring seals keep out water and resist corrosion. Simply put, the sealed M-series is designed to
work where other inverter/chargers were never intended to go.
The vented OutBack M-Series has the same proven technology and conformal coated circuit boards as the sealed version but offered in a
vented chassis for higher power output. The fully screened “bug-proof” openings keep the power conversion components cool in very hot
environments even when operated at high power for extended periods in more protected environments.

The MATE2M is a complete management tool for your OutBack mobile power conversion system. The onboard
CPU coordinates the operation of all your OutBack system components for maximum performance and smooth
system integration.
A backlit LCD provides a display for system monitoring while four soft keys allow navigation of the menu system and
adjustment of settings. Information for up to 10 inverter/chargers and other OutBack power conversion and control
products is available at your fingertips through the communications HUB. Your programmed settings are stored in permanent memory to
eliminate the need to reprogram the system in the event of
a system shutdown or battery replacement.
The OutBack MATE2M includes a built in clock and calen-
dar which allows timer based programming of power system
operation. This enables the user to specify a generator’s run
time to a specific time period of the day or week.
