Power Save Timer
The Power Save Timer is an adjustable countdown timer from 1 to
25 hours (25 hours is the default) that automatically shuts down
inverter operation to reduce battery discharge and preserve
battery life. During continuous inverter operation, the countdown
is initiated when power from the AC load drops to less than
approximately 50 watts and remains below this level. After
reaching the end of the countdown timer the inverter/charger
automatically shuts down.
To change the countdown timer, see
.
Power Save Mode
By enabling the power save mode, the inverter/charger can
automatically go to load sense mode by sending short pulses to
further reduce the battery discharge. Power save mode ends
when a load greater than 25 W is connected.
Checking Battery Status
During inverter operation (in battery mode), you can check the
battery status by observing the battery capacity indicator on the
LCD screen. The battery voltage appears in the left side of LCD
screen.
The normal operating battery voltage range is between 11 and
15 volts.
Checking Output Power
When the inverter/charger is in operation (in battery mode), you
can check how much power (displayed in kW) the Freedom XC
PRO is supplying to the connected loads by observing the load
capacity indicator on the LCD screen. The battery discharge
amperage appears in the right side of the LCD screen.
Operating Several Loads at Once
If you are going to operate several loads from the Freedom XC
PRO, turn them on one at a time after you have turned the
inverter/charger on.
Turning loads on separately helps to ensure that the
inverter/charger does not have to deliver the starting current for all
the loads at once, and will help prevent an overload shutdown.
