Charger Mode Status Messages

When AC power (utility or generator) is connected to the inverter/charger it monitors the AC input

for acceptable voltage. Once AC input is accepted, the AC transfer relay (within inverter) closes

and Charge mode begins. View the top line of the LCD display and the corresponding message in

this section to identify and understand the particular Charge mode that displays.

Info: The AC input becomes acceptable once a minimum 10-second delay passes, the

voltage is greater than the SETUP button’s 03B Low VAC Dropout setting, and there is

no CTRL: AC In Control menu setting that is actively preventing the AC from connecting.

Inverter Standby appears on the LCD. The INV (green)

LED is on solid. All other LEDs are off.
