Max Charge Rate

The battery charger’s maximum output current can be
specified using the Max Charge Rate menu. The default is
100% of the maximum charge rate. Refer to the RV Series
Inverter/Charger Owner’s Manual for model-specific
adjustable charge rates in amps.

Set Shore Power

The inverter monitors the AC power being drawn by both the
battery charger and the AC loads connected to the inverter. If
the current draw approaches the shorepower circuit breaker
rating, the battery charger reduces the amount of current
supplied to the batteries to provide the maximum current to
the AC loads. Set Shore Power ensures the battery charger
does not exceed the shorepower circuit breaker rating. This
setting should match the shorepower or generator’s circuit
breaker rating. The default setting is 30 amps (and above).
