Port
The MATE3s interfaces with other devices using the Ethernet port.
The connections here are used for Internet access with the OPTICS RE
interface. Other connections are possible. The MATE3s can connect
using a network switch or a wireless network router.
NOTE:
All communications use
CAT5 (non-crossover) cable.
Battery LED Indicators
Three LED indicators indicate the condition of the battery bank.
GREEN means the batteries have an adequate charge at that
time. It does not always mean they are full. If the FLEXnet DC
battery monitor (FN-DC) is installed, this means the batteries are
80% State of Charge (SOC).
Y
ELLOW means the batteries are somewhat discharged. If the
FN-DC is installed, this means the battery SOC is between 60%
and 70%.
R
ED means the batteries are greatly discharged and may require
attention. If the FN-DC is installed, this means the battery SOC
is less than 60%. This indicator may be accompanied by a
Low Battery V error and the EVENTS indicator. (See page 5.)

Battery Status Indicators
NOTES:
Gaps in the table (higher-voltage units) are due to the resolution of the inverter’s DC meter.
These voltage settings are not the same as the inverter’s Low Battery Cut-Out voltage. The Battery LED settings cannot be changed.
Voltages higher than shown in the GREEN row usually means that the batteries are charging.

Screen
When the MATE3s is plugged into a powered OutBack product, it immediately powers up and cycles through
the startup screens. It will proceed to locate and identify the attached components and the ports they occupy
on the HUB. It will then stop on the “Home” screen.
