OutBack Power MATE3s User Manual

D
The AC INPUT hot key (A) brings up AC Input Status, with information on the AC
source. It also has commands that can connect or disconnect from the source.
AC INPUT
Screen Items (A):
 AC Input Select (Radian-class only): This displays which of two inputs was set as first
priority for the inverter. (See the MATE3s Programming Guide to make this selection.)
This item is not present in FX-class or FXR-class inverters.
 The top line also displays the present AC voltage and frequency from the input source.
 Input Mode: Allows soft key options to change the mode. This may be overridden by other commands. For example, a system set to
Drop will automatically switch to Use if AGS starts the generator.
 Next to AC Input Select is the last reason the status was changed. In A, the change is due to an HBX-SOC event. Other possible
reasons are Manual, AGS, Grid-Time, Load Grid, or HBX-Voltage. See the MATE3s Programming Guide for more information.
 AC Input Status: This displays the current interaction with the AC input. This screen will usually change to match AC Input Mode
once a soft key command is given. In Radian-class inverters, the displayed AC voltage is the sum of the L1 and L2 phases.
 The <Drop> and <Use> soft keys (B and C) manually disconnect or connect to the AC source.
 The <Discon> soft key (D) displays a screen with the reason for the last AC disconnect.
Screen Items (D):
This screen shows the reason for the inverter’s last automatic disconnection from
the AC source. The possible reasons include Input Frequency Too High, Input
Frequency Too Low, Input Voltage > Maximum, or Input Voltage < Minimum.
Radian-class and FXR-class inverters have Backfeed, Phase Lock, or Island Detect.
Most items show N (no). If an item shows Y (yes), the inverter disconnected for that reason.
FAVORITE
To program the FAVORITE hot key:
1. Navigate to the desired screen.
2. Press and hold the FAVORITE hot key until the green

and select up to four frequently used (or “favorite”) screens
for rapid access. It includes a green LED indicator.

IMPORTANT
Only one favorite screen can be programmed
per soft key. Attempting to program more than
one screen to the same soft key will overwrite
the first screen.
Password-protected screens cannot be saved
as favorites. This means that the screens
described in the MATE3s Programming Guide
cannot be saved this way. (These include any
screens accessed with the LOCK key.)
