Fdmman2.p65 2/98
An optional remote control panel is
available for the Freedom Combi Series. It
offers several features not found on the unit.
The Freedom Remote Control Panel provides
LED bargraphs which show system status,
battery voltage, and current in both inverter
and charge modes. These bargraphs also
display dip switch positions and shut down
conditions.
Remote Power Switch
The switch on the remote is used to
control the inverter and the battery charger
function. When a remote control is used, the
power switch on the inverter should be left in
the OFF position.
System Status LEDs
These 4 LEDs monitor the system as
described in the table on page 33.
DC Volts Bargraph
These LEDs indicate the battery voltage
as measured inside the unit. Each LED
segment indicates .5 Volts (1 Volt*). If an
overload occurs and the unit shuts down, the
DC Volts bargraph will stop indicating battery
voltage and display the dip switch settings. It
will return to indicating battery voltage only
after the unit has been reset.
To review the dip switch settings, cycle
the power switch OFF/ON two times within
one second. This will cause the DC Volts
bargraph to illuminate the corresponding dip
switch settings for 10 seconds. Refer to the
chart on page 33.
NOTE: Freedom 20/32 Volt only. Each
LED on the DC Volts bargraph corresponds to
1.33 Volts.
DC Amps Bargraph
These LEDs approximate DC input
current in inverter mode and DC output
current in battery charger mode. Two ranges
are used -- below 50 (25*) Amps each
segment represents a 10 (5*) Amp increment,
above 50 (25*) Amps each segment
represents a 20 (10*) Amp increment. Above
130 Amps, a flashing LED indicates the value
displayed plus 100 Amps (flashing 50 LED is
equal to 50 + 100 or 150 Amps DC).
REMOTE CONTROL PANEL ADDENDUM
NOTE: Freedom 20/32 Volt only. Each
LED on the DC Amps bargraph below 14.0
represents a 3.5 Amp increment, above
14.0 represents a 7.0 Amp increment.
Above 49 Amps, the DC Amps
bargraph will display a blinking LED corre-
sponding to that value plus 49. For
example, a blinking 21.0 DC Amps LED
indicates 70 Amps (49.0 + 21.0 = 70.0).
If a shut down occurs, the DC Amps
bargraph will stop indicating DC Amps and will
indicate the type of problem. Each LED
segment indicates a differrent problem as
described in the troubleshooting section on
page 34.
