The menu system displayed on the MATE will vary depending on the software version that the MATE was
programmed with at the time of manufacturing or during its last software upgrade. For your particular menu system,
consult your MATE manual.
The following pages show the portion of the menu structure that relates to the FX. Most of the menu will be
consistent no matter what type of FX you have purchased. The MATE displays that follow are from the most current
MATE being sold by OutBack Power Systems.
The DC voltage values (the letters “vdc” usually follow these values) shown in the following MATE displays will be the
default values for a 12V version of the “Export” FX. For the 24V version, multiply these values by 2. For the 48V
version, multiply these values by 4. This multiplication process includes the incremental values (when changing a
voltage setting you will use the ‘increment’ (INC) or decrement (DEC) buttons). For example, for a 12V FX the
increment value is 0.1V. A 24V FX has an incremental value of 0.2V and a 48V FX has an incremental value of 0.4V.
All values displayed in the “Setup” and “Advanced” menus are the default values unless otherwise stated.
For “M” versions of the MATE (example: MATE 2”M”), only the “Status” and “Advanced” menus are the same as non-
“M” versions of the MATE. If you are using an “M” version of the MATE, please consult the MATE manual for proper
navigation and screen information.
