Operating During Transition Between Shore Power and
Inverter Mode

The

Freedom HW

’s advanced power management is capable of

transitioning power from an AC source to DC source within a fraction of
a second and vice-versa.

The

Freedom HW

automatically detects when shore power is present and

when it becomes unavailable or when shore power drops to less than 95
Vac.

Transitioning from Shore Power to Inverter Mode

When the unit is operating in shore power mode and shore power is lost,
the

Freedom HW

has less than 30 ms (milliseconds) to switch to inverter

mode and start drawing power from the battery.

The Status LED will turn from solid or flashing GREEN to a solid
YELLOW.

Transitioning from Inverter Mode to Shore Power

When the unit is operating in inverter mode and shore power becomes
available, the

Freedom HW

begins a 20-second countdown to verify the

stability of the shore power. If shore power remains stable within 20
seconds, at the end of the countdown, the

Freedom HW

has less than 30

ms (milliseconds) to switch to shore power mode and start drawing power
from the AC source.

The Status LED will turn from solid YELLOW to flashing YELLOW
during the 20-second countdown, then turn to GREEN when battery
power is transitioned successfully to shore power.
