Power Save Timer

The Power Save Timer is an adjustable countdown timer from 1 to
25 h (25 h is the default) that automatically shuts down inverter
operation to reduce battery discharge and preserve battery life.
During continuous inverter operation, the countdown is initiated
when power from the AC load drops to less than approximately
50 W and remains below this level. After reaching the end of the
countdown timer the inverter/charger automatically shuts down.
To change the countdown timer, see Settings on page 56.

Power Save Mode

By enabling the power save mode, also called load sensing, the
inverter/charger can automatically go to power save mode by
sending short pulses to further reduce the battery discharge.
Power save mode ends when a load greater than 25 W is
connected.
NOTE: Certain types of loads can cause power save mode to
work unexpectedly. These types of loads are described in
Problem Loads on page 83.
