The ERROR LED can be used to indicate when the generator frequency is well adjusted. When the
frequency is within ± 5% of the nominal value, the LED will be off. Once outside this window, the LED will
be on. A frequency meter is also provided in the METERS (4) menu heading to allow a more precise
adjustment of the generator. It is able to indicate the frequency of the generator only after the inverter has
been able to synchronize to the generator. The acceptable frequency range for the SW Series is 53 to 67
Hertz for 60-Hertz models and 44 to 56 Hertz for 50-Hertz models.
Inverter breaker
tripped NO
The inverters output AC circuit breaker on the left end of the chassis has tripped or is open. Operating
too large of an AC load may cause this. Reduce the loads connected and reset the circuit breaker by
pressing it in or moving the handle depending upon the type of breaker included.
TIME OF DAY (6) MENU HEADING
Provides the reference for any time functions enabled. Does not reset when the PRESS FOR FACTORY
DEFAULTS button is pressed. Will reset only if DC power to the inverter is lost.
Set Clock hour
00:00:00
Indicates and allows setting of the hours for the internal clock. This setting is based on a 24-hour clock
and adjusts in 10-minute increments.
Set Clock minute
00:00:00
Indicates and allows setting of the minutes for the internal clock.
Set Clock second

Indicates and allows setting of the seconds for the internal clock.
GENERATOR TIMER (7) MENU HEADING
Start Quiet
Time h:m 08:00
Generator will not be started during this period unless the actual battery voltage reaches the LOW
BATTERY CUT OUT VDC setting for a continuous period of 30 seconds. Causes the automatic generator
control system to ignore the AC load and battery voltage start settings. The quiet time period is usually set
for the sleeping hours.
End Quiet
Time h:m 08:00
This setting finishes the quiet time period, allowing the generator to start as required by the settings of the
GEN AUTO START SETUP (12) menu heading in the SETUP MENU. To disable the quiet time, set the
start and end times equal. The generator exercise system will start at this time setting and will run for 15
minutes if the generator exercise timer has reached the SET EXERCISE DAYS menu item setting. For
example, if the SET EXERCISE DAYS menu item is set for 1, then the generator will start every day at
this time. To disable the generator exercise system, set the SET EXERCISE DAYS menu item to zero.
INFORMATION DISPLAY
The following information is displayed as additional Menu Items.
Gen doesnt run during quiet time unless batt volts is less than
LBCO volts for 30 seconds, or load > load start amps.
To defeat timers set start = end.
If exercise day set to 1 then gen will always start @ end quiet.
