Jeff,
I don't know if this is true for all of the Magnum inverters, but I
suspect it is:
From the MS-PAE manual: "The settings once programmed are saved in the
*remote's* nonvolatile memory and are preserved until changed - even if
DC power to the inverter is lost (as long as the ME-RC remote is
connected)." So, if the default settings aren't adequate, your
customer's will need a remote. They need it to equalize the batteries
anyway. And since every battery system should have a battery monitor,
there may as well be a remote for the purpose of using the Magnum BMK.

We recently started stocking the Magnum Energy inverters and when we
had a few installations requiring some adjustments to the default
settings we were advised to order the Magnum Energy Remote Control.
However, we then found out that this is a stripped down control and we
needed to order the "Advanced" version of this control.
Our plan was to keep this in the assembly area and use anytime we have
a Magnum inverter that needs modification of the setpoints. However,
after ordering all these different models and controls it appears some
or all of these setpoints in the inverter go back to default if we
un-plug the remote control. Is this correct??
We have many projects that either the client does not want the remote
control, will not pay the extra cost for the remote control, or we do
not want them attempting to change these settings. Is there a way to
use the remote to make these changes and then ship out the inverter
with the modifications without the needing to include the remote control.
Thanks,
Jeff Yago
