Freedom SW Owner’s Guide
Configuring the Freedom SW using the SCP
Gen Support
GEN Support
is basically generator (and also shore power)
support for the Freedom SW 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.

NOTE:
Running and start-up (peak) currents are limited to the maximum
current limits of the inverter.
