INVERTER SETUP
IDLE MODE: The default value is 4 watts. This means it takes a
SETUP EXAMPLE: To set the IDLE MODE to 0 watts, first select the INVERT on, then press the SETUP BUTTON until the Green LED begins to flash. Now, press and hold the IDLE MODE BUTTON. The present value will appear. The display will scroll after three seconds. Hold the button down until 0 appears. Release the button. The new value will remain in the display for about five seconds. When the display reverts to the normal monitoring function the new value is stored in nonvolatile memory. To see if the new value has been successfully stored, repeat the setup procedure but do not scroll to a new value.
PWR SHARE: The default value is 30 amps (or OFF for Freedom 25). The power sharing feature automatically reduces the charger output, and therefore the AC power consumption, if the load passing through the inverter's automatic transfer switch exceeds the setup value. This load management feature helps prevent AC supply breakers from tripping when boats or RVs are plugged into AC power and the charger, water heater, and perhaps other loads all come on at once. In "Off Grid" applications the auxiliary generator often has several
Freedom 10, 15 & 20 Range = 5, 15, 20, 30 A; Freedom 25 & 30 Range = 5, 20, 30 A, OFF; Freedom 10E & 20E Range = 2, 5, 10, 15 A; Freedom 25E Range = 2, 10, 15 A, OFF
For Freedom serial numbers below 100,000 use this table to interpret the display.

ANOTHER SETUP EXAMPLE: To set PWR SHARE to 20 amps on a F10 Model with a serial number below 100,000, first select the CHARGE on, then press the SETUP BUTTON until the green LED begins to flash. Now, press and hold the PWR SHARE BUTTON. The present value will appear. The display will scroll after three seconds. Hold the button down until 1 appears (see table above). Release the button. The new value will remain in the display for about 5 seconds. When the display reverts to the normal monitoring function the new value is stored in nonvolatile memory.
