Why you want them: Status screens give the user a breakdown of individual activities of the FX

Series Inverter/Charger(s) and the Charge Controller(s), including AC and DC voltage and AC

and FLEX net DC current meters. It is these individual readings that combine to produce the

Summary screens noted earlier and allow monitoring of the system operation.

STATUS Screen Overview

Press on the Main menu to access the

STATUS menu. STATUS contains all the meters

and mode displays for OutBack products con-

nected to the MATE.

The STATUS menu is divided first by product and

then into menu categories, such as meter, modes,

and statuses.

NOTE: Other than offering manual on/off control of its AUX relay, the MATE has no control

over the workings of the CC Charge Controller except when the system is undergoing a global

EQ charger mode. At this time, the system uses both the FX and the Charge Controller(s) to

charge the batteries.
