Basic Configuration Settings
Load Shed

Load circuits controlled by AC-only relays can be forced to remain ON and

exempt themselves from the load shedding logic of the Freedom Sequence

power manager. This exemption technique is useful when you want to keep

one or two loads running at the expense of other loads in the system that

remain subject to the load shedding logic. If the Load Shed setting is

Disabled, this can be interpreted as rendering the load circuit “invisible”

from the power system. Thus, the power manager cannot apply the load

shedding logic to this circuit but can still apply to the other loads “visible”

to the power manager. Therefore, the user should be careful to change this

setting back to Enabled since this is not done automatically.

By default, the Load Shed setting of all the AC and DC relays is set to

Enabled.
