as it appears on the SCP. Each item is described in terms of its purpose,
whether it is a display or configurable setting, when to use, and the outcome
of changing the setting.
Inverter

In the example shown, the inverter is enabled. The default setting for the
inverter is disabled.
When to use Enable the inverter when you would like to have AC power
from the inverter.
Outcome The inverter is enabled. The inverter provides power from the
batteries unless qualified AC input power is present.

of the charger. In the example shown, the charger is enabled. The default
setting for the charger is enabled.
When to use Set the charger to Enabled when you want your batteries
charged when connected to AC power.

immediately stop charging. The charger can also be enabled or disabled
from the Freedom SW 3000 front panel.

qualified, then the charger will not operate until AC qualifies.
See “Force Charge” on page 40 for information on automatic charging.
Power Share
Configurable setting Power Share is a configurable setting that you set
to match to the breaker rating on the AC input. This setting is used to ensure
that the charger limits its output to try to prevent nuisance tripping of the
AC input breaker due to the total current drawn by the charger and your
other AC loads. For more information on this feature, see “Power Share” on
page 38.
In the example shown, Power Share is set to 30A.
IMPORTANT: On the SCP, use the up arrow button or down arrow button
to change the value. Holding down a button lets you scroll through values
quickly.
