Inverter Settings

AC Output
This menu adjusts the output voltage produced while the inverter is inverting (running on battery power).
This setting does not affect the output when using another AC input source. It does not affect the
acceptance parameters for an AC input source. The range of adjustability will vary with inverter model.
See the inverter Operator’s Manual for the specific range of adjustability.
Figure 94 AC Output
Low Battery
While inverting, the inverter will not be able to sustain its operation if the battery voltage goes below a certain point.
The inverter will stop functioning and generate an error. This function is referred to as a Low Battery Cut-Out (LBCO).
The function is intended to protect the batteries, as excessive discharge may damage a battery. It also protects the
inverter’s output and loads. Continuing to invert on a low DC voltage may produce a distorted waveform.
When this occurs, the Events LED will illuminate to indicate an event has occurred. (See
35
Figure 159 on page
35
139 for
reviewing event details.)
The range of adjustability for this set point will vary with inverter model. See the inverter Operator’s Manual for the
specific range of adjustability.
The inverter will also stop functioning and give an error due to high battery voltage. However, the high-battery
cut-out voltage is not adjustable.

Set Points:

Output Voltage – Adjusts the inverter’s
output voltage while in inverting mode.
Set Points:

Cut-Out Voltage – Sets the voltage at which the inverter
shuts off due to a low-battery condition. If the batteries drop
to this voltage for five consecutive minutes, the inverter will
stop functioning. The inverter’s ERROR LED will illuminate.
The MATE3 will display an event, with a Low Battery V error
appearing in the
Inverter Errors menu.

Cut-In Voltage – Sets the voltage at which the inverter
recovers from LBCO. If the batteries rise to this voltage for ten
consecutive minutes (usually through charging), the inverter
will begin functioning again. The Low Battery V error will
clear itself.
