MATE SCREENS
Advanced Screens
The ADVANCED (ADV) menu section allows adjustment of all the settings involved with the operation of the FX. Changes made to
these settings are stored internally in non-volatile memory inside of the FX – the settings are not lost when the MATE is removed or
battery power is disconnect.
Some settings appear both in the SETUP and in the ADV menus. Changes made to these settings in one area will cause the same
changes to occur in the other area. The settings are provided in both menus to make it more convenient for the FX programmer by
giving access to all of the settings in the advanced menu.
Access to the settings in the ADV menu is restricted through the use of a password. This password is required to view and adjust the
settings. Once the password has been entered, all advanced categories can be adjusted without having to re-enter the password. If
the advanced menu is exited and re-entered, the password must be re-entered, however. Use of the “hot” keys AC IN and INV is
allowed from the advanced menu and selecting OK from these screens will return you to the same point in the advanced menu.
The password for the inverter is currently fixed to the same value for all of the FX’s.

The MAIN screen is where the menu system starts. The four words in the bottom line of the
display correspond to the four buttons located below the display. The word in
BOLD on the bottom
line indicates the selection used to advance the display to the next screen. Pressing the left two
buttons simultaneously from anywhere in the menu will return you to this screen.
Selecting
<ADV> brings up a warning message. Please read the message. Pressing any of the
four keys below the display advances the display to the password screen.
Entering the correct password number is done by pressing the <INC> key to increase the
number or the
<DEC> key to decrease the number. Once the number shown matches the
password code
(141), press the key below the word <ENTER>. To leave the advanced menu
area without making any changes, press EXIT.
Following the password screen is a screen that allows selection of the OutBack product type.
Selecting
<FX> allows adjustment of the FX’s advanced programming. Selecting MX will allow
