Setup
3.0 Setup
When the remote is connected to a Magnum inverter/charger, the settings in the remote control
determine the inverter/charger’s operating parameters. The default settings in the remote con-
trol are adequate for most installations (see Table 3-3); however, you have the option to change
some of the operating parameters. This section shows you how to navigate the remote and gives
you an understanding of the function of each adjustable setting.
3.1 Navigating the Remote
The ME-ARC has menu items and adjustable settings that provide the ability to confi gure your
inverter/charger to your specifi c parameters.
Info: See Figures 4-1 through 4-5 for complete maps of the inverter/charger’s menu
items and adjustable settings.
Familiarize yourself with the display and controls on the remote’s front panel that are used to
fi nd, adjust, and save the desired settings (see Figure 3-1).

ous menu items and settings. Pressing the knob selects the menu item to change, or saves
