Troubleshooting
Introduction
The Freedom SW 3000 is designed for high reliability of operation and has
a number of protection features to provide trouble free operation. If,
however, you have any problems operating your inverter/charger read this
troubleshooting chapter.
If you cannot resolve the problem, record the necessary information on the
form, “Information About Your System” on page 4. This information will
help your dealer or Xantrex Customer Service to assist you better when you
contact them.
When a fault or warning message appears, you can acknowledge the
message to clear the screen. To acknowledge a fault or warning message,
press the Enter button on the SCP. This action does not clear the fault or
warning condition, so you should consult Table 8 and Table 9 for suggested
actions after you have acknowledged the message. Refer to the System
Control Panel Owner’s Guide for more information on faults and warnings.
Fault Types
There are three types of fault messages: automatic faults, manual faults, and
escalating automatic faults. Table 6 describes how they differ in their
behavior and how you can respond to them when they appear on the SCP.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Do not disassemble the inverter/charger. The Freedom SW 3000 contains
no user-serviceable parts.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious
injury.

Manual faults Require you to clear them by:
selecting Clear Faults on the Freedom SW
3000 or on the device that generated the fault
