Configuring the Freedom SW using the SCP

ACIn Settings

The ACIn Settings menu configures the voltage and frequency limits for AC Input quantification range. These are the limits at which the Freedom SW considers input voltage qualified—that is, suitable for charging batteries or powering loads. If the input voltage is not qualified according to these settings, the Freedom SW transfers from using AC input to inverting.

AC1 Breaker

Sets the AC1 (Grid) breaker size, based on the size of the breaker installed

 

on AC1. The installed breaker size must not exceed the capacity of the

 

upstream distribution panel. The Freedom SW limits the maximum input

 

current to this setting by derating its charging current to an equivalent of

 

80% of the AC breaker size. If the connected loads exceed the AC1
