Freedom Sequence Intelligent Power Manager Owner’s Guide

Circuit Level Advanced Settings

Load Shed

The 

Load Shed

 setting here is the same as the setting discussed in “Load 

Shed” on page 19. The only difference here is that the change in load shed 
setting happens from the circuit-level screen in 

Advanced Settings

 

instead of from the 

Config

 screen.

Circuit Type

The Freedom Sequence power manager’s circuit relays can control either 
AC or DC lines. If the circuit relay controls an AC line, its type is 

ACInputOut

. If the circuit relay controls a DC line, its type is 

DCInputOut

AC relay types cannot be modified to 

DCInputOut

. However, a DC relay 

type can be modified to 

ACInputOut

 when that DC relay is used to control 

an AC appliance.

AC Line

AC Relays

All AC relays can be associated to either 

Line1

 or 

Line2

This is called 

Line Association

. You may assign certain AC relays to 

Line1

 and the remaining AC relays to 

Line2

. For example, 

Circuit1

Circuit3

, and 

Circuit5

 can be assigned to 

Line1

 and 

Circuit2

Circuit4

, and 

Circuit6

 can be assigned to 

Line2

. Default settings are 

shown below.

DC Relays

When the type of load circuit is changed from DC to AC, the 

line association can either be Line1 or Line2. Default settings are shown 
below. 

NOTE

: DC relays can be used to control AC loads. For example, a DC relay 

can be used to signal an external AC contactor/relay to control an external 
AC load circuit.

NOTE

: This setting can only be modified when 

Mode

 is set to 

Standby

.
