5. Status Screen

The STATUS Screen displays system information. See page 63 for detailed information of the different Operational Modes. The optional OutBack MATE displays CC (Charge Controller) STATUS screens for convenient distant viewing from the installation location of the FLEXmax 80. Please see pages 65-67 to view the Charge Controller screens displayed on the MATE.

The PV voltage will slowly rise to the battery voltage level even when the PV breaker is off – this is normal as the PV capacitors charge up.
