Hi Darren,
This system was full Outback: FX inverter, FM controller, FlexMAX
monitor, Mate, hub. We have used the MX60's with many mod. square wave
inverters in off grid systems and in RV's. No compatibility problems
with the MX series.
Kindest Regards,

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Outback FM80 problems
Wrenches,
Last week I had an FM80 that would operate in bulk mode while reducing
the current to a few amps on a 1200 watt RV system. The customer said
he had to reset the controller several times through the day. After
every reset, full amperage was delivered and the controller would
eventually transition to absorb and float. I replaced the controller
from stock and put it on the bench. It works just fine with no other
equipment attached to the battery.
My question is about the auto restart mode. Default is 0. Should Mode
0 continue to track the Vmp thru the day or must one use mode 1 and
force restarts? The MX60 had a Sweep Interval that could be programmed
for every few minutes. Has this been replaced by the Auto Restart
Mode?
Larry
