- Page 13 Note: All Lite Commercial models can be offered complete ex-factory installed into a shipping container. Such systems are pre-commissioned at the Freedom Won factory and can be combined with the required battery inverters supplied and fitted by Freedom Won. For lifting the factory assembled Commercial units into position specialised equipment is required.
- Page 14 2. If manoeuvring through a doorway too low for upright handling is unavoidable the battery can be positioned (whilst still inside the crate) on its long side. Special packaging inside the crate is required for this procedure so Freedom Won must be notified of this requirement prior to collection.

- Page 17 If a particular inverter under consideration only has a Modbus control input for the BMS we recommend as first option considering another inverter that has a CAN Bus input. If this is not practical, please discuss the project with Freedom Won so that we can consider using a CAN Bus to MODBUS converter.
- Page 18 (second) plug. These resistor plugs are available from the inverter manufacturer and from Freedom Won. SMA, Imeon, Solax and Victron operate on this basis. ATESS for example has a separate CAN terminal block for bare wires to be inserted from the BMS and these units have an internal resistor fitted into the device.
- Page 19 “SLAVE” with the slave number (address) for systems with multiple slaves. Freedom Won offers a fair trade in on Freedom Lite’s on the purchase of new units, which is an option for somebody wishing to expand their battery capacity instead of installing parallel units.
