Operation 

The MATE3 provides the means for programming OutBack inverter/chargers, charge controllers, and 
battery monitors when preprogrammed default settings do not work for the destined installation. 

 

IMPORTANT:   

The OutBack inverters have nonvolatile memory and will retain any settings 
that have been changed, even after the MATE3 is removed.  If a system does 
not have a MATE3, an installer can bring a MATE3 to the site temporarily, 
install it, change the settings, and then remove it.

 

 

IMPORTANT:   

Some functions are not based in the inverter or charge controller, but are 
part of the MATE3’s firmware.  They will not function if the MATE3 is 
removed.  These functions are listed beginning on page 115.
