METER Screens

The METER screens displays current, voltage and wattage measurements, Inverter status, and the version of Inverter software, in this order:

•initial screen, beginning with charge/invert/float/etc: ––shows the unit’s operating mode (see table to the right) ––inv: kilowatts being taken from the batteries while inverting. ––chg: kilowatts being put into the batteries while charging. ––zer: not active in this model

––buy: total kilowatts drawn from AC source (charge and loads)

•output voltage: available AC voltage at the Inverter’s AC output

•input voltage: available AC voltage at the Inverter’s AC input, from utility or generator

•inverter current: AC amperage being drawn by loads on AC output when Inverter is ON and no AC source is connected

•charger current: AC amperage used by the Inverter’s charger

•input current: AC amperage drawn by the Inverter’s AC input (combination of charging and loads)

•sell current: not active in this model

•FX firmware: current Inverter software version

The METER values cannot be changed in the STATUS screens.
