3.0 Setup
When the remote is connected to a Magnum inverter/charger, the settings in
the remote control determine the inverter/charger operating parameters. The
default settings in the remote control (see Table 3-4, Inverter/Charger Default
Settings) are adequate for most installations, however you have the option to
change some of the operating parameters if required. This section will show
you how to navigate the remote, give you an understanding of the function of
each adjustable setting and help you decide what setting should be used.
