Select AC Input Current Sharing—OPTIONAL
Your Inverter/Charger features a high-output battery charger that can draw a significant amount of AC power from your utility
source or generator when charging at its maximum rate. If your unit is supplying its full AC power rating to its connected heavy
electrical loads at the same time as this high charging occurs, the AC input circuit breaker could trip, resulting in the complete
shut off of pass-though utility power.
To reduce the chance of tripping this breaker, all Inverter/Chargers are pre-set to automatically limit the input current as described
in “Most Limiting” below. If your unit is equipped with DIP switches 7 and 8, they may be used to select other AC input current
sharing settings. Verify that AC input wiring is rated for the higher current that results when using the other settings.
Select Battery Charger-Limiting Points
“Most Limiting” (#7 & #8 Up):
Charger-limiting takes effect the moment any AC load is applied; charger output
falls gradually from full output at no AC load passing through to no output at full load (factory setting).
“Less Limiting” (#7 Up & #8 Down):
Charger-limiting begins when the Inverter/Charger’s load reaches 33% of
the Inverter/Charger’s load rating. Charger output falls gradually from full output at 33% of the Inverter/Charger’s
load rating to about 33% of full output at full load.
“Least Limiting” (#7 Down & #8 Up):
Charger-limiting begins when the Inverter/Charger’s load reaches 66% of
the Inverter/Charger’s load rating. Charger output falls gradually from full output at 66% of the Inverter/Charger’s
load rating to about 66% of full output at full load.
“No Limiting” (#7 & #8 Down):
No charger-limiting occurs at any load size.

* Most of your connected appliances and equipment will perform adequately when your Inverter/Charger’s High AC Input Voltage Point and its Low AC Voltage Input Point is left in
the factory setting. However, if the unit frequently switches to battery power due to momentary high/low line voltage swings that would have little effect on equipment operation,
you may wish to adjust these settings. By increasing the High AC Voltage Point and/or decreasing the Low AC Voltage Point, you will reduce the number of times your unit
switches to battery due to voltage swings.
