When the ME-MR remote is connected to a Magnum inverter/charger, the
remote’s settings determine the inverter/charger’s operating parameters.
The default settings in the remote (see Table 3-4) are adequate for most
installations. However, you can change some of the operating parameters if
needed. This section shows you how to navigate the remote, and gives you
an understanding of the function of each adjustable setting.
