September 7, 20223 yr Hi, I hope someone can help me as this is a bit worrying! I've set up my inverter and battery to run line mode, no solar, just plugged the inverter into a wall outlet connected to its own 20a circuit on the DB. The cutoff to battery works fine, as well as the flip back to mains power but the battery is not being charged. After a night running in bypass the battery appears to have been depleted even though it wasn't being used. I've attached 2 pics of the inverter - screen and techspec Here are my settings: 01- output source priority UtI 02- max charging current 20A 03- ac input voltage rante APL 05- batter type USE 06- auto restart when overload Ltd 07 auto restart when over temp ttd 09- output freq 50H 10- output voltage 230v 11- max utilit charging current 20A 12 – setting voltage point back to utility source for SBU ad Solar first N/A – left as def 13- setting voltage back to batter ode with sdbu or solar first N/A – left as def 16- cahrger source priority Cut 26- Buk chargine voltage 14.3v 27- floating charging voltage 14v 29- low dc cut-off voltage 11.5 no equalization settings changed. Default to ‘no equalization’ Have I made a huge mistake on the settings? Please help! thanks in advance, ross
September 7, 20223 yr Author I see setting 16 keeps reverting to OSO, no matter how many times I set it to CUt. all my other settings have been kept.

Press the up and down arrows and check what is the PV voltage from your strings. It looks like no PV available that's why it refuses the setting OSO. Further if it goes back to Util for charging then Util should charge batteries and it is also not working.
September 7, 20223 yr Author hi. No I have no PV yet I'm just using it as a ups for now. I saw 16 kept reverting to OSO from CUt so I instead changed it to CSO. The battery immediately started charging so that's good. Do the rest of the settings look ok for the s120 battery?
