Freedom SW Owner’s Guide

Configuring the Freedom SW using the SCP

Stacking Configuration Menu

The 

Stacking

 menu configures the Freedom SW to operate 

as a part of a multi-unit installation.

When installing a stacked system, every setting on the 

Stacking 

menu (except for 

Dev Name

) must be configured for 

each Freedom SW in the system. The settings should be 
configured in the following order:

Dev Number

Stack Mode

Figure 32 

Stacking Menu Screen

IMPORTANT: 

Accessing this menu automatically places the Freedom SW

in standby mode. When entering the

Stacking

menu, the unit identifies itself

by flashing all front panel LEDs. After exiting the

Stacking

menu, the

Freedom SW returns to operating mode and the front panel LEDs stop
flashing.

NOTE: 

The same

Battery

number and

AC In

number must be used for

all stacked Freedom SW units.
