3.0 Setup
ME, MS, and RD Series:
These models have two inputs (HOT IN 1 and HOT
IN 2), but the current is only monitored on HOT IN 1. On these models, when
wired as a dual-in con
fi
guration or as a single-in con
fi
guration—with only
the HOT IN 1 connected—the
Shore Max
setting should be set to the size
of the AC circuit breaker that feeds the HOT IN 1 input. On these models,
when wired as a single-in con
fi
guration with HOT IN 1 and HOT IN 2 jumped
together, set the
Shore Max
setting to half (x½) the input breaker size—as
half the current will pass through HOT IN 1 and the other half through HOT
IN 2 simultaneously.
MS-AE and MS-PAE Series:
These models have two inputs (HOT IN 1 and
HOT IN 2), with the current monitored on each input at the same time. On
these models, since the input is from a single AC source, both of the input
currents are added together and divided in half to determine the
Shore Max
setting. Whether the input circuit breaker is a dual-pole (120/240 VAC input)
or a single-pole (120 VAC only), set the
Shore Max
setting to the value of
only one of the breaker poles (i.e., 30A dual-pole = 30A setting, 30A single-
pole = 30A setting).
MS-E, MS-PE, MSH-RE and MSH-M Series:
These models may have
one (AC1) or two (AC2) inputs, with the current monitored on each input
separately. On these models, set the
Shore Max
setting to match the input
AC circuit breaker size.
Note:
If the ME-RC is connected to a MSH-RE inverter, the Shore Max setting
applies to both inputs (AC1 and AC2).
Note:
The MS Hybrid (MSH) Series inverter/chargers have Load Support Mode,
which allows the inverter power to operate in parallel with the incoming AC
power (Grid or Gen). This feature uses additional power from the inverter’s
battery to run loads greater than what the incoming AC power can run alone,
and prioritizes the power of any external DC source (i.e., solar, wind, etc.,)
over the incoming AC power to run inverter loads.
MM, MM-AE and MMS Series (and any export version of these
models):
These models do not monitor current on the input, therefore
cannot bene
fi
t from the
Shore Max
setting or feature. On these models, the
Shore Max
setting may be displayed and allow selection/adjustment, but will
not do anything to reduce the battery charger current.
3.3.2 AGS Menu
The AGS button allows an optional Auto Generator Start – Network (AGS-N)
controller (if installed and networked) to be con
fi
gured to your speci
fi
c
system preferences, and enables you to check the status of the AGS.
Info:
Refer to Section 7.0 (in this manual) and to your ME-AGS-N
Owner’s Manual
(PN: 64-0039) for detailed information on the AGS.
