MATE SCREENS
AUXILIARY MENU (CONTINUED)
This page contains to settings for the various functions that can be chosen in the AUX OUTPUT FUNCTION screen described on the previous page. There are voltage and time period settings for ‘GenAlert’, ‘LoadShed’, ‘VentFan’, and ‘Diversion’.
The following displays allow the adjustment of the particular AUX OUTPUT FUNCTION that was selected on the previous screen in the AUX menu section.

The GENALERT ON SET POINT is the battery voltage at which the AUX output is energized when the AUX OUTPUT FUNCTION has been set to GENALERT. This setting has a range between 10.0 vdc and 14.0 vdc in 0.1 vdc increments.
The GENALERT ON DELAY is the amount of time that the battery voltage must remain below the GENALERT ON SETPOINT voltage for the AUX output to become energized. This setting is provided to allow for short periods of heavy load usage. This setting has a range between 0 minutes and 240 minutes in 1 minute increments.
The GENALERT OFF SETPOINT is the battery voltage at which the AUX output is
The GENALERT OFF DELAY set point is the amount of time that the battery voltage must remain above the GENALERT OFF SETPOINT voltage set point for the AUX output to become de- energized. This setting is provided to allow the battery charger to more fully recharge the battery once it has been started. This setting has a range between 0 minutes and 240 minutes in 1 minute increments.
The LOADSHED OFF SETPOINT is the battery voltage at which the AUX output is energized to reduce the load on the inverter and battery system. Once the battery voltage has dropped below this setting for 3 seconds the AUX output will have 12 vdc available to power a DC coil relay to disconnect an AC load. Once the LOADSHED function has been triggered it will remain on for a minimum of 3 minutes. This setting has a range between 10.0 vdc and 14.0 vdc in 0.1 vdc increments.
The VENTFAN ON SETPOINT is the battery voltage at which the AUX output is energized when the AUX OUTPUT FUNCTION has been set to VENTFAN. The AUX output can be used to keep hydrogen from accumulating by exchanging the air in the battery enclosure. This setting has a range between 10.0 vdc and 16.0 vdc in 0.1 vdc increments.
The VENTFAN OFF PERIOD set point can be used to allow for intermittent operation of the battery enclosure ventilation system. Setting the time period to 5 minutes will operate the fan at a 50% duty cycle as the “on” time period is fixed at 5 minutes. Setting the VENTFAN OFF PERIOD to zero will keep the fan on continuously when the battery voltage exceeds the VENTFAN ON voltage set point. This setting has a range between 0 minutes and 30 minutes in 1 minute increments.
The DIVERSION ON SETPOINT enables the AUX output to function as a diversion controller. This can be used to send excess power from a renewable energy source to a load. This can allow control of sources such as wind turbines or
–DIVERTDC and DIVERTAC. The only difference is that the AC diversion setting will quickly turn off the AUX output if the FX is overloaded. This setting has a range between 12.0 vdc and 16.0 vdc in 0.1 vdc increments.
The DIVERSION OFF DELAY is the amount of time that the AUX output will continue to be energized after the battery voltage falls below the DIVERSION ON SETPOINT voltage. In cases where the battery voltage is hovering around the DIVERSION ON SETPOINT voltage, the AUX output won’t flicker. This setting has a range between 0 seconds and 240 seconds in 1 second increments.
Selecting TOP returns the user to the top of the ADV/FX/AUX menu section. Selecting ADV returns you to the advanced screen to allow selection of another product connected to the MATE. Selecting MAIN returns the display to the MAIN screen.
