Introduction

Electronic Protection

Fast-acting electronic circuits protect the inverter from extreme overloads, low and high battery voltage and over-temperature. They can be reset by cycling the power switch off and on. The fault condition must be eliminated before reset will occur. For example, remove the overload, recharge the batteries, or allow the unit to cool. See “Troubleshooting” on page 4–1.

Inverter ldle Circuit

The inverter idle circuit is an automatic energy saving feature that reduces battery power consumption when no load is present. Response from idle is instant. In most cases, the operation of the idle circuit is not noticeable. Using the remote control panel allows the idle circuit sensitivity to be adjusted.

Power Sharing

The Freedom 10 can automatically reduce the battery charger output, and therefore the AC power consumption, if appliances are turned on that threaten to trip the incoming circuit breaker. This feature can be adjusted using the remote control panel. This feature is set to protect a 15-amp source by default.
