Overload Conditions

There are two kinds of overload conditions – an overload warning
and an overload shutdown.
Overload When the Freedom XC's AC load is approximately 100 W
Warning below the overload shutdown limit of rated watts, the
audible alarm beeps once and the LCD screen shows a
warning code E06.
Overload When the Freedom XC's AC load increases to near
Shutdown ~1700 W, the audible alarm beeps every 5 s for 1 min
and the LCD screen shows a error code E03. The Status
LED turns solid RED.

High Surge Loads

Some induction motors used in freezers, pumps, and other motor-
operated equipment require high surge currents to start. The
Freedom XC may not be able to start some of these motors even
though their rated steady state current draw is within the
inverter/charger's limits. The unit will shut down and indicate an
overload shutdown.
