5.3 System Status Messages

The remote control uses the top line of the LCD display to show the inverter/
charger's current operation by displaying a status
will show the inverter/charger's operating modes and the available status
messages under each mode. Use these status messages along with the
Status LED's to determine the inverter/charger's current operating status,
and to help troubleshoot the system if a fault occurs.
There are three operating modes of the inverter/charger:
• Inverter Mode

• Searching – The inverter is in the Search mode, which means the AC
loads on the inverter output are less than the Setup 02A Search Watts. The
Search mode function is used to reduce the inverter draw from the battery
and may be turned off at any time, if you want full inverter output voltage
available at all times (see the 02 Invert Setup section on page 20).
