Freedom SW Owner’s Guide

Configuring the Freedom SW using the SCP

ACIn Settings

The

ACIn Settings

menu configures the voltage and frequency limits for

AC Input quantification range. These are the limits at which the Freedom
SW considers input voltage qualified—that is, suitable for charging
batteries or powering loads. If the input voltage is not qualified according to
these settings, the Freedom SW transfers from using AC input to inverting.

Description

AC1 Breaker

Sets the AC1 (Grid) breaker size, based on the size of the breaker installed
on AC1. The installed breaker size must not exceed the capacity of the
upstream distribution panel. The Freedom SW limits the maximum input
current to this setting by derating its charging current to an equivalent of
80% of the AC breaker size. If the connected loads exceed the AC1
breaker setting, the AC breaker trips. The breaker may not trip if grid
support is enabled and battery voltage is above the

Grid Supp Volts

setting, or if peak load shave is enabled and the load shave time window is
active.

AC1 Lo Volt

Minimum acceptable input voltage level from the utility mains.

NOTE

: It is recommended to leave this setting to its default value and not

to set it to the maximum allowed. Doing so might inadvertently derate
charging power in jurisdictions where the nominal AC mains voltage or
generator output is at 110 volts.

AC1 Hi Volt

Maximum acceptable input voltage level from the utility mains.

AC1 Lo Freq

Minimum acceptable utility mains input frequency.

AC1 Hi Freq

Maximum acceptable utility mains input frequency.
