You may encounter the following messages
on the Inverter Control Panel. They are not error
messages.
Charging and Operation while Driving
Your vehicle will charge automatically while
you drive. Charging occurs when the engine
speed is between 1500 and 3700 RPM’s.
NOTE: The alternator may not always be ON
while the vehicle is running. If the
battery pack is above a set State of
Charge (SOC) the alternator will be
OFF until the pack controller determines
it is appropriate to turn on the alternator.
Operating Parameters
Voltages
Temperatures
The battery pack is in a sealed and insulated
compartment. When the temperatures in the
compartment are getting too warm for the pack to
operate, an environmental fan will use the
interior of the motorhome to cool the pack. When
the temperatures of the pack are too cool for the
pack to operate, a heating pad will warm the
pack.
