AES (Automatic Economy Switch)
Instead of the search mode, the AES can also be chosen (with help of VEConfigure
only).
If this setting is turned "on", the power consumption in no-load operation and with
low loads is decreased by approx. 20 %, by slightly 'narrowing' the sinusoidal
voltage. Not adjustable with DIP switches. Applicable in stand-alone configuration
only.
Ground relay (see appendix B)
With this relay (H), the neutral conductor of the AC output is grounded to the chassis
when the back feed safety relay is open. This ensures the correct operation of earth
leakage circuit breakers in the output.
If a non-grounded output is required during inverter operation, this function must be
turned off.
Not adjustable with DIP switches.
Battery charge curve
The standard setting is "Four-stage adaptive with BatterySafe mode". See Section
2 for a description.
This is the recommended charge curve. See the help files in the software
configuration programs for other features.
Battery type
The standard setting is the most suitable for Victron Gel Deep Discharge, Gel Exide
A200, and tubular plate stationary batteries (OPzS). This setting can also be used
for many other batteries: e.g. Victron AGM Deep Discharge and other AGM
batteries, and many types of flat-plate open batteries. Four charging voltages can
be set with DIP switches.
Automatic equalisation charging
This setting is intended for tubular plate traction batteries. During absorption the
voltage limit increases to 2,83 V/cell (34 V for a 24 V battery) once the charge
current has tapered down to less than 10 % of the set maximum current.
Not adjustable with DIP switches.
See "tubular plate traction battery charge curve" in VEConfigure.
Absorption time
The absortion time depends on the bulk time (adaptive charge curve), so that the
battery is optimally charged. If the "fixed" charging characteristic is selected, the
absorption time is fixed. For most batteries, a maximum absorption time of eight
hours is suitable. If an extra high absorption voltage is selected for rapid charging
(only possible for open, flooded batteries!), four hours is preferable. With DIP
switches, a time of eight or four hours can be set. For the adaptive charge curve,
this determines the maximum absorption time.
Storage voltage, Repeated Absorption Time, Absorption Repeat Interval
See Section 2. Not adjustable with DIP switches.
