Outback Power Systems MATE User Manual

2.2.4 The ‘INV’ Hot Key
The OutBack MATE includes an
INV “hot” key to allow direct control of the inverter from anywhere in the menu system. The
INV key is located on the right side of the MATE LCD display. Pressing the INV key will take you to the INVERTER
CONTROL menu section as shown below.
A green LED indicator is located above the
INV key which flashes when the inverter is either in the search or power save
modes, and is on continuously when full AC output voltage is available from the inverter. When the inverter is turned off or
when the AC input source is being used, the green LED will not be illuminated.
When an OutBack HUB is employed, the
INVERTER CONTROL options effect all FX inverters on the HUB.
