Operating in Battery Mode

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 automatically shuts down.
To change the countdown timer, see Settings on page 1.

Power Save Mode

By enabling the power save mode, also called load sensing, the
inverter 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 72.

Checking Battery Status

During inverter operation (in battery mode), you can check the
battery status by observing the battery capacity indicator on the
LCD screen. The battery voltage appears in the left side of LCD
screen.
The normal operating battery voltage range is between 11 and
15 VZ.

Checking Output Power

When the inverter is in operation (in battery mode), you can check
how much power (displayed in kW) the Freedom X is supplying to
the connected loads by observing the load capacity indicator on
the LCD screen. The battery discharge amperage appears in the
right side of the LCD screen.

Operating Several Loads at Once

If you are going to operate several loads from the Freedom X, turn
them on one at a time after you have turned the inverter on.
Turning loads on separately helps to ensure that the inverter does
not have to deliver the starting current for all the loads at once.
