Standby
– This means the charger has been disabled to
prevent any charging, but the AC power (from shore/utility or generator)
to the AC input is still available on the AC output. This display is shown
when the ON/OFF CHARGER button is pressed while the AC power is passing
through the inverter/charger.
Info:
To enable charging again, press the ON/OFF CHARGER button.
When the charger is again enabled, the charger will continue in the
Charge mode it last left and the CHG (green) LED will come on solid.

• Charging
– Once Charging 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 (>12.8 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.
• Bulk Charging
– The battery charger is delivering maximum current
(determined by the SETUP menu’s
05 Charge Rate
setting) to the batteries.
The charger will remain in Bulk Charge until the absorb voltage (determined
by the SETUP menu’s
04 Battery Type
setting) is achieved.

PWR (green) is on solid, and CHG
(green) LED is typically on solid, but
may blink. FAULT (red) LED is off. INV
(green) LED could be on or off.
