Checking Output Power

During Inverter mode, you can check how much power (displayed in kW) the Freedom HF is supplying to the connected loads by pressing the Select button until the Output Power LED illuminates.

Operating Several Loads at Once

If you are going to operate several loads from the Freedom HF, turn them on one at a time after you have turned the inverter on.

Turning loads on separately helps to ensure that the inverter does not have to deliver the starting current for all the loads at once, and will help prevent an overload shutdown.

Turning the Audible Alarm ON or OFF

The Freedom HF’s audible alarm can be turned ON or OFF. Any warnings such as fault conditions or imminent shutdown are both displayed on the display panel’s screen and sounded on the alarm speakers.

It is not possible to turn OFF the screen and prevent it from displaying error codes but it is possible to turn OFF the audible alarm.

Note: The alarm setting will reset to its default setting when the Freedom HF’s Inverter button is turned OFF then turned ON again.
