Configuring the Freedom SW using the SCP
Generator Support
GEN Support
is basically generator (and also shore power) support
for the Freedom SW 230V that allows power to be automatically
drawn from the batteries to assist an AC generator or shore power to
support heavy loads (for example, loads that exceed the available
current from either a generator or shore power).
Generators and shore power have a limited output current and it is
possible to reach this limit when operating heavy loads. When
heavy current demand from the load is needed, additional power
from the batteries can supply the needed energy.
In addition, the battery charger can reduce its charging current to the
batteries so the combined charge AC current and total load current
do not exceed the capacity of the generator (and shore power) or trip
its output breakers or fuses.
The Freedom SW 230V supports the generator or shore power when
the AC load current drawn from the generator or shore power
exceeds the
GenSup Amps
setting for one to two seconds.
The system can enter this state if the battery voltage is above
Low
Battery CutOut (LBCO)
plus 1 volt and
GEN Support
is
enabled.
GEN Support
with a generator can only work when the
Xanbus AGS is installed and detected in the system to control when
to turn on the generator.
GEN Support
with shore power, however,
does not need the Xanbus AGS.
