5.3.2 Charger Mode Messages
When AC power (utility or generator) is connected to the inverter/charger, it
begins to monitor the AC input for acceptable voltage. Once the AC input is
accepted, the AC transfer relay (inside the inverter) closes and charge mode
begins. There are several Charger Mode messages; view the top line of the
LCD display and the corresponding message in this section to determine and
understand the particular Charger Mode.
Info:
The AC input becomes acceptable after a minimum 10 second
delay, and when the voltage is greater than the Setup 03D VAC
Dropout setting.
Charging
– Once the charger mode has been enabled, the unit will wait
and display “Charging” to determine the charge routine. If the DC voltage
is low (
≤
12.8 VDC / 12-volt models,
≤
25.6 VDC / 24-volt models, or
≤
51.2
VDC / 48-volt models), the charger will initiate “Bulk Charging”. If the DC
voltage is high (>12.9 VDC / 12-volt models, >25.6 / 24-volt models or
>51.2 / 48-volt models), the charger will skip the Bulk and Absorb charging
stages and go directly to Float Charging.

No Inverter Comm -
The ME-ARC is not communicating with the
inverter/charger. The ME-ARC uses a standard telephony wired cable and is
receiving power and ground from the inverter/charger to power up, but the
transmit and receive wires are not working. Try a different remote cable or
standard phone cable.
