Setting the Device Name

The Dev Name setting allows you to customize the name of the Freedom SW as it is displayed on other screens and menus.

Changing the device name is not mandatory for stacking to be successful. It simply allows a user to distinguish between multiple inverter/chargers that are installed in the same system.

The characters available are:

•A to Z

•a to z

•0 to 9

•space

NOTE: Increasing the number of characters in a device name may cause other text on the same line to run off the edge of the screen. Device names should be limited to 10 characters or less.
