Operation - Victron energy Phoenix Multi 12/2000/100 Bedienungsanleitung

2 OPERATION

2.1 On/Off/Charger Only Switch
When switched to "on", the product is fully functional. The inverter will come into operation
and the LED "inverter on" will light up.
Multi/ MultiPlus only:
An AC voltage connected to the "AC in" terminal will be switched through to the "AC out"
terminal, if within specifications. The inverter will switch off, the "mains on" LED will light up
and the charger commences charging. The "bulk", "absorption" or "float" LEDs will light up,
depending on the charger mode.
If the voltage at the "AC-in" terminal is rejected, the inverter will switch on.
When the switch is switched to "charger only", only the battery charger of the Phoenix Multi
will operate (if mains voltage is present). In this mode input voltage also is switched through
to the "AC out" terminal.
NOTE: When only the charger function is required, ensure that the switch is switched to
"charger only". This prevents the inverter from being switched on if the mains voltage is lost,
thus preventing your batteries from running flat.
2.2 Remote Operation
The Phoenix Multi can be operated with a remote control panel. This control panel is called
the Phoenix Multi control panel. The panel has an on-off switch and repeats all indicators of
the Multi.
The charger of the Phoenix Multi can be turned off. This can be done by changing the set up
configuration or by connecting the Phoenix Inverter remote panel.
For remote control of the Phoenix Inverter the Phoenix Inverter panel should be used.
2.3 Special Charger Modes Equalizing
Some batteries may need a regular equalizing charge. To perform an equalizing charge the
Phoenix Multi can charge at a higher voltage (1V above the absorption voltage for a 12V
battery, 2V for a 24V battery) for a period of one hour. The charger current is then limited to
1/4 of the specified value.
The "bulk" and "absorption" LEDs will flash alternately during this cycle.
The equalizing mode results in a charging voltage that may exceed the
maximum voltage of DC consumers. These should be disconnected when
performing an equalizing charge.
