Search Mode (
Applicable in stand-alone configuration only)
If search mode is ‘on’, the power consumption in no-load operation is decreased by approx.
70%. In this mode the Compact, when operating in inverter mode, is switched off in case of no
load or very low load, and switches on every two seconds for a short period. If the output
current exceeds a set level, the inverter will continue to operate. If not, the inverter will shut
down again.
The Search Mode can be set with a DIP switch.
The Search Mode “shut down” and “remain on” load levels can be set with VEConfigure.
The standard settings are:
Shut down: 40 Watt (linear load).
Turn on: 100 Watt (linear load).
AES (Automatic Economy Switch)
Instead of the search mode, the AES mode can also be chosen (with help of VEConfigure
only).
If this setting is turned ‘on’, the power consumption in no-load operation and with low loads is
decreased by approx. 20%, by slightly 'narrowing' the sinusoidal voltage.
Not adjustable with DIP switches.
Applicable in stand-alone configuration only.
Programmable relay
By default, the programmable relay is set as an alarm relay, i.e. the relay will de-energise in
the event of an alarm or a pre-alarm (inverter almost too hot, ripple on the input almost too
high, battery voltage almost too low).
Not adjustable with DIP switches.
Near the connection terminals an LED illuminates when the relay is activated (refer to S, see
appendix A)
