User Interface

The User Interface consists of a 4 button keypad and an 8x2 backlit LCD display. During 
normal operation the LCD will scroll through meter functions and status. There are 5 heads-up 
LED display indicators for system status that include Alarms, Battery Charging, Battery Power, 
AC Present and Switched Output status.

Scrolling Display

The Root-Menu is a scrolling display that scrolls between Company Name and Model, 
Operating Mode (System Start Up, Battery Charging or Inverter On), Faults, Output Voltage, 
Output Current, Battery Voltage, Date and Time, Days, Events and Minutes.
To access any of the Menus (METER, ALARM, EVENT LOG and SETUP) simply press the 
ENTER button. Pressing the left or right arrow in the scrolling display mode will advance or 
retard the scroll. Pressing Escape in any of the Sub-Menu's will retard back one menu level.  
Pressing Escape multiple times will always return the user to the Root-Menu.
