What is the Power Save feature?
The Power Save feature turns off the
LCD backlight and the LED’s on the remote to conserve energy. The remote
goes into Power Save mode if there hasn’t been a button press or fault
message for a period of time (this time is determined by the
01D Power Save
setting). Whenever the remote goes into the Power Save mode, the LCD
backlight and the LED’s can be reactivated by pressing any button. If you
have a fault during the Power Save mode, the LCD backlight and the FAULT
LED will come on and stay on as long as the fault is present.
Info:
If you want the LCD backlight and the LED’s to always be on,
you will need to turn the Power Save feature off by selecting
OFF
from the
Set Power Save
menu.

What is the Search Watts feature?
This feature is used to help save
battery power by reducing the inverter’s output to search pulses when there
is no detectable load. If a load greater than the wattage level setting turns on
while the inverter is ‘searching’, the inverter will start ‘inverting’ to provide
full voltage on its output.
