5.1.1 LED Indicators
There are four LED indicators on the front panel that light solid or blink to
indicate the inverter/charger's status. When the remote is fi rst powered-up,
all the LEDs come on as it goes through a self-test (see Section 2.5). Once
the self-test is complete, the LEDs along with the LCD provide the operating
status of the inverter/charger. See Section 5.3.4 for info on LED indicators.

LCD Display

The LCD display is used for setting up the system operation, as well as
viewing the current operating status and fault conditions. This display has
two lines of alphanumeric characters and features a backlight that can
be set to turn off to conserve power. The top line provides the inverter/
charger status, which is detailed in this section. The bottom line displays
battery information while using the METER menu, system troubleshooting
information while in the TECH menu, and displays menu items that can be
confi gured for your specifi c system operation when using the SETUP menu.
This display automatically powers-up with the current system status on the
top line and the home screen (detailing the inverter's DC voltage and current
as shown in Figure 5-1) on the bottom line.
