3.0 Setup
When the remote is connected to a Magnum inverter/charger, the settings in
the remote control determine the inverter/charger operating parameters. The
default settings in the remote control (see Table 3-4, Inverter/Charger Default
Settings) are adequate for most installations, however you have the option to
change some of the operating parameters if required. This section will show
you how to navigate the remote, give you an understanding of the function of
each adjustable setting and help you decide what setting should be used.

3. Navigating the Remote's Menu

The ME-RC has an internal structure that provides menu items and adjustable
settings that provide the ability to configure your inverter/charger to your
specific parameters.
Info: See figure 4-1, Inverter/Charger Menu Map for a complete map
of the inverter/charger menu items and adjustable settings.
Familiarize yourself with the items on the front panel which are used to find,
adjust and save the desired setting. They are:
• LCD Display - The bottom line of the LCD display shows the menu items,
adjustable settings or the meters display information.
Info: The bottom line of the LCD display returns to the Home Screen
to show DC voltage and current (see Figure 3-1) after 2 minutes - if
no buttons have been pressed.
Info: When the "←" (left facing arrow) symbol is shown on the dis-
play, it indicates that the displayed setting has been selected and
will be used.
• Menu Pushbuttons (x5) - These five menus allow simple access to the
menu items that can help with configuring, monitoring and troubleshooting
your inverter/charger system.
• Rotary SELECT Knob - This knob allows you to quickly scroll through and
select various menu items and settings after pressing a menu pushbutton. This
knob is also used to "save" a setting once it is displayed on the LCD screen
and will refresh the LCD display by holding this knob down for 10 seconds.
