MENU SYSTEM

OVERVIEW

The operation of the inverter is determined by the settings in the menu system. The menu system is
divided into a USER MENU and a SETUP MENU. Each of the menu systems is divided into MENU
HEADINGS and MENU ITEMS. The menu headings break the menu into groups of related menu items.
At the Menu Item level a setting can be adjusted, a mode can be selected or information can be displayed.
When a number is included with the graphic of the menu heading or menu item in this manual, the values
shown are the default value and are for a 12-volt domestic (120VAC/60Hz) model SW Series
Inverter/Charger. For 24 volt systems multiply the DC settings shown by 2, for 48 volt systems multiply the
DC settings shown by 4.
The USER MENU provides the controls and settings needed on a daily basis. It allows you to turn on
the inverter and generator, read the AC and DC meters, check on an error cause and even adjusts
the inverter's time clock.
The SETUP MENU provides all of the settings required to configure the inverter to operate in the
necessary modes for your installation. They are separated from the USER MENU to reduce tampering
and simplify the daily operation of the inverter.
The SW Series Inverter/Charger MENU SYSTEM is accessed through the CONTROL PANEL on the front
of the unit. To access the SETUP MENU, press both the red ON/OFF MENU and green GEN MENU
buttons at the same time once. The display will show INVERTER SETUP (9). This is simply the
continuation of the same menu system of the USER MENU. If you select a menu heading less than nine,
or press either the red or green buttons, you will have to re-enter the setup menu by pressing the red and
green buttons at the same time again.
