5. Operation
5.1. Device display
The inverter has an LCD screen that displays operational information.
Inverter:
Inverter state, Power output, Frequency and AC Voltage
Battery:
Battery Power (charging shows positive number, discharging shows negative number), Current, DC voltage, Temperature (*),
State-of-charge (*) and Time-to-go (*). Battery state (e.g. discharging, bulk, absorption, float, etc).
(*) These items are only visible if the data is available.
Solar Power, Voltage and Current, kWh daily and total Yield.
Communicating on any interface (e.g., Bluetooth, VE.Can, etc.)
Bluetooth Enabled, Icon colour changes when connected
(Blinking) Error or Warning
Inverter Active
Battery, fill corresponds with voltage, blinks when empty
5.2. Protections and automatic restarts
5.2.1. Overload
Some loads like motors or pumps draw large inrush currents during start-up. In such circumstances, it is possible that the start-up
current exceeds the over current limit of the inverter. In this case the output voltage will quickly decrease to limit the output current
of the inverter. If the over current limit is continuously exceeded, the inverter will shut down for 30 seconds and then automatically
restart. After three restarts followed by overload within 30 seconds of restarting, the inverter will shut down and remain off. To
restart normal operation, disconnect the load, Switch Off the inverter, then switch it On.
5.2.2. Low battery voltage thresholds (adjustable in VictronConnect)
The inverter will shut down when the DC input voltage drops below the low battery shutdown level. After a minimum shutdown
time of 30 seconds, the inverter will restart if the voltage has risen above the low battery restart level.
After three shut down and restarts, followed by a low battery shutdown within 30 seconds of restarting, the inverter will shut down
and stop retrying based on the low battery restart level. To override this and restart the inverter, switch it Off, and then On, and
limit loads to enable recharging of the battery with solar energy.
