MX/FM Address: For directly connected MX/FM this will be an ‘A’ ASCII (65). If a HUB is used, the
address will correspond to the port the MX/FM is plugged into. ASCII (66) – ASCII (75) for Ports 1-10.

Charger current: ‘00’ to ‘99’ This is DC current the MX/FM is delivering to the batteries in one amp
increments.

PV current: ‘00’ to ‘99’ This is DC current the MX/FM is taking from the PV panels in one amp
increments

PV panel voltage: ‘000’ to ‘255’ The voltage seen at the MX/FM PV input terminals in one volt
increments.

*Daily KWH: ‘000’ to ‘999’ Running total of KWatt Hours produced by the PV array. Formatted as
XX.X (999 = 99.9 KWH). This number is reset every morning when the MX/FM wakes up, or every 24
hours in locations with no nightfall.

Charger current tenths of Amp: 0 to 9 (FlexMAX 80 and FlexMAX 60 only)
Add Charger current plus tenths to equal charger current displayed on FM80 or FM60
