Installation
During installation of the Freedom Remote, the Freedom Inverter/

AUXILIARY SWITCH (jumper) on the inverter must be in the Off
position. Refer to the owner’s manual for position details. The Freedom
Remote may be mounted up to 50 feet from the Freedom Inverter/
Charger. Cut a hole in an appropriate location using the mounting
template supplied. Route the data cable from the remote to the inverter.
Routing the data cable away from AC and DC wires will minimize the
potential for interference. Plug the data cable into the Freedom Re-
mote and the Freedom Inverter/Charger. Secure the Remote Control
