Item Description
Batt Type
Sets the system battery chemistry and type:
Flooded
,
AGM
,
Gel
, and
Custom
.
Selecting Custom displays the Custom Settings item, which
allows you to adjust the settings for each charging stage.
Batt Capacity Selects the system battery capacity in amp hours. Setting the battery
capacity to 0 resets the charging current to its default values.
Zero Ah battery capacity implies there is no absorption exit current
criteria and absorption only exits when the absorption timer (default
3hrs, range 1min-8hr) expires.
Max Chg Rate Sets the percentage of the maximum DC output current that is
available to the charger. The maximum DC output current for
different models is:
• Freedom SW 2012 —100 ADC
• Freedom SW 3012 —150 ADC
• Freedom SW 2024 —50 ADC
• Freedom SW 3024 —75 ADC
If two Freedom SWs are charging the same battery bank, set each
inverter's Max Chg Rate to 1/n of the desired charge rate (where n
is the number of inverter/chargers).
Charge Cycle Sets the charging method: 3-Stage (bulk, absorption, float) or
2StgNoFloat (bulk, absorption, no float).
ReCharge Volts Sets the recharging volts to tell the charger to initiate charging when
the battery drains past the value setting.
AC In Breaker Set the breaker limit of incoming AC.
Low Batt Cut Out Low Battery Cut Out (LBCO) controls when the inverter stops
producing AC output due to a low battery voltage condition. The
inverter will stop producing AC output only after this level has been
reached for the period of time set by the LBCO Delay. This setting is
not temperature compensated.
