Set Points
A set point is a condition, measurement, or baseline that a user establishes in order for something else to
happen (such as when to start or stop a generator).
For example:

Example #1. With a home thermostat, when predetermined temperatures and times are set for
weekdays and weekends, the thermostat signals to a heating/cooling system to turn on at one time
until a certain temperature is reached, maintain that temperature, and finally shut off at a later time,
usually during sleep hours to conserve energy. Otherwise, the user would have to manually control the
system.

Example #2. A timed light will turn on and off based on a specified time or level of ambient light, or
possibly by detecting motion.
The MATE3 allows a user to view, monitor, and establish all the settings and values that occur while the
system is running. From time to time, these settings and values might be adjusted as components are
added or upgraded, electrical loads increase, or patterns of usage change.
Types of Settings
The OutBack MATE3 accommodates a wide range of time-based and voltage-level functions and
conditions for maximum control of the power system.
The following types of settings may require adjustments depending on the specific installation:

Start and stop times for different sources of energy (when to use grid-supplied power, stored battery
power, or generator-supplied power),

Frequency and duration of battery recharging (based on the requirements of the battery
manufacturer), and

Inverter response to battery voltage (low battery cut-out, low battery cut-in)
