The battery breaker on top of each battery does not have to be turned off if the BATTERY
SYSTEM D.C. breaker is already off. However, it is recommended to turn them off for long
term storage (up to 6 months).
Tip: If the BlackMax is put into storage, after 6 months the system should be restarted to
recharge the batteries (e.g., via a generator).
Adjusting the inverter parameters
The BlackMax has been commissioned and tested in RedEarth’s factory.
Only minor parameter adjustments may be required:

the BlackMax however the most efficient method is to use this application in Local
