Inverter Control 
The OutBack MATE includes an INV “hot” key to allow direct control of the inverter from anywhere in the menu system. The INV key is 
located on the right side of the MATE LCD display. Pressing the INV key takes you to the INVERTER CONTROL menu shown below. 
A green LED indicator is located above the INV key which flashes when the inverter is either in the search or power save modes and is 
on continuously when full AC output voltage is available from the FX. When the inverter is turned off the green LED will not be 
illuminated.

Pressing the INV key once brings up the INVERTER CONTROL screen. To turn the inverter 
ON, press the key located below the word <ON>. Selecting <SRCH> will cause the inverter to 
begin operating in the search mode as long as the AC load connected is smaller than allowed by 
the programming of the search function. Selecting <OFF> turns off the inverters AC output 
signal. 
Select <OK> to return to the point in the menu system from where you entered the INVERTER 
CONTROL screen.
