and only the remainder will be applied to charging. Therefore, if you want to optimize charging, make sure
that all loads are switched off.
If a generator’s auto start is connected to the Auto Gen Start on the Power Pak, the switch will activate and
start the generator if the voltage of the batteries drops below a certain value. The triggering voltage levels for
each model is as follows:
• MINI - 11.5 V
• COMPACT - 22.5 V
• GRANDE – 46.5 V
When AC input power is available, the Line Mode LED will be illuminated.
The Power Pak indicates charging status with the yellow LED labelled “Fast CHG” on the front panel. When
the batteries are fully charged the green LED labelled “Float CHG” will illuminate. These LEDs will only
illuminate when charging from an AC source, and will not be lit when charging from solar panels.
7.2 Monitoring
The Power Pak is equipped with two meters: a DC meter for the batteries and solar panels, and an AC meter
for the AC power output to connected appliances. There is usually no need for the user to check these meters,
but some users may find the information they provide to be helpful or interesting. Both the DC and AC meters
come with a wide range of settings that can be customized by the user, but for the average user there is no
need to ever adjust these settings.
This manual provides information only on how to read the displays on these meters. For detailed information
on the meters and how to adjust all settings, please see the manufacturer’s manual for each meter.
