Battery
The second line of the device screen indicates the status of the battery.
This line displays the volts (V), current (A) as either (+) positive amps
(indicating that the battery is charging) or (–) negative amps (indicating
the battery is discharging because you’re inverting) and battery
temperature in either
°F or °C.
AC Input
When the RS2000 is in charge mode, this line indicates whether you have
AC input from the utility grid or from a generator. This line shows the
values for current (A), the frequency (Hz), and the AC voltage in (V).
AC Out
This line is displayed when the RS2000 is in invert mode or in AC bypass
mode. This line indicates the AC output and shows the values for current
(A), the frequency (Hz), and the AC voltage in (V).
Float Charge The third stage of three-stage battery charging. After
batteries reach full charge, charging voltage is
reduced to a lower level to prevent gassing and to
prolong battery life. This stage is often referred to as a
maintenance charge. Rather than charging a battery, it
keeps an already-charged battery from discharging
while providing load current.
Invert The RS2000 is converting DC power to AC power.
AC Bypass AC input from an AC source like the utility grid or
from a generator is allowed to pass through the unit to
operate connected AC loads. The charger is not
enabled but AC is qualified and passed through the
unit.
Equalize To improve the life and performance of a non-sealed,
flooded (or wet) battery, the RS2000’s multi-stage
charging cycle includes a manual equalize mode that
can be used if recommended by the battery
manufacturer.
Load Sense In order to minimize power draw from the battery, the
inverter will periodically check if a load is connected
when the inverter is enabled.
