4.1 DEVICE

1) The device icon on the top of the interface shows the “Remaining available time” , the icon on the left shows the battery level of the device (F=full, E=empty), and the icon on the right shows the temperature of the device (H=hot, C=cold). (The data is for reference only.)

There are three colors for the device’s temperature display:  

• Green indicates normal temperature

• Yellow indicates temperature warning

• Red indicates high temperature warning

(if the temperature is displayed in red, the device switches off).

2) When the device is charging, the “Remaining charging time” will be displayed under the device icon. (The data is for reference only.) * The remaining available time or remaining charging time displayed on the LCD display and in the app may be slightly different. Since the unit on the LCD display is “Hour” and there are only two digits, the maximum value is 99 hours. The units in the app are “Day” “Hour” “Minute” , which provide a more detailed time display.

3) “Input” : Displays the total input power of AC+DC/PV+UPS. “DC/Solar power” : Displays the charging power of the car or solar energy.   “DC/Solar current” : Displays the charging current from the car or solar energy. “AC charging mode” : Displays the AC charging power and provides three AC charging mode options ( “N-Charging” “Q-Charging” “S-Charging” ). 

4) “Output” : Displays the total output power of AC+DC+USB+UPS+LED. “AC on/off” “DC on/off” and “USB on/off” : Displays the output power of the port.

“On-Grid info” : Provide four options for grid connection (200W/400W/600W/800W).

* When the MIG button is turned on , the AC output will be automatically turned off, and the DC and USB outputs and LED function will not be affected.  

“LED” : Provides three different brightness and SOS function options. When the “Input” power > the “Output” power, the device icon is green. When the “Input” power ≤ the “Output” power, the device icon is blue.

4.2 DATA

This interface has three axes for counting solar power generation and electricity cost savings. The data for “Daily power generation” and “Cumulative power generation” come from solar power generation. The data for “Revenue statistics” come from solar power generation and the data in the “Electricity Price” column of the “Others” interface 1) “Daily power generation” : Counts solar power generation per day. 2) “Cumulative power generation” : Counts solar power generation in week, month and year.

3) “Revenue statistics” : Counts the electricity cost savings by week, month and year. 7

4.3 MISCELLANEOUS

1) “ECO on/off”: Switch for the energy saving mode of the AC output. When the ECO function is on and the device continuously detects an AC output power ≤ the set “ECO power” within the set “ECO time” , the AC output will be automatically switched off to reduce battery loss (DC and USB outputs and the LED function are not affected).

“ECO power” : The AC output power when the AC output enters energy saving mode can be set. The default setting for “ECO power” is 5W.

“ECO time” : The continuous detection time before the AC output enters energy saving mode can be set.

* The ECO function can only be set when the device is not charging, otherwise it cannot be set.

2) “Device standby time” : The standby time before the whole device enters the shutdown state can be set. This function is only effective when the device is not charging and all outputs and LED function are turned off, otherwise it is invalid.

3) “Inverter standby time” :

The continuous detection time before the AC output enters the off state can be set. When the device continuously detects AC output power ≤ 3W within the set “Inverter standby time”, the AC output will be turned off automatically. This function is only effective when the device is not charging and not in UPS mode, otherwise it is invalid.

4) “DC standby time”: The continuous detection time before the DC and USB outputs go into the off state can be set. If the device continuously detects the output power of DC and USB ≤ 3 W within the set “DC standby time” , the DC and USB outputs will be turned off automatically.

* This function is only effective when the device is not charged, otherwise it is invalid.

5) “Electricity price”: Users can set the electricity price and the corresponding time according to the actual situation on site. The value of this setting determines the presentation of the data in the “Revenue statistics” table of the “Data” interface .

6) “Breathing light on/off” : The charging indicator light of the device can be turned on or off. 

7) “MIG timing on/off” : The MIG timing function can be turned on or off. When this switch is turned on, the “MIG” symbol will appear and flash on the LCD display of the device. When the “MIG timing setting” is effective, this switch will turn on automatically.

8) “MIG timing setting” : The start time and end time of automatic grid connection can be set. After this setting takes effect, when the grid connection start time is reached, the “On-Grid info” in the output column of “Device” interface will automatically turn on and the device starts grid connection; when the grid connection end time is reached, the “On-Grid info” will automatically turn off and the device ends grid connection. The default grid connection power for “MIG timing” is 200W. * During the set period of automatic grid connection, please make sure the device is connected to the power grid and the power grid is in normal state for this function to work. 

9) “Auto MIG SOC on/off” : The Auto MIG SOC function can be turned on or off. When this switch is on, the “MIG” icon will appear and flash on the LCD display of the device. When the “Auto MIG SOC setting” is effective, this switch turns on automatically.

10) “Auto-MIG-SOC setting” : In solar charging state, the capacity points for starting and ending Auto MIG can be set. After this setting takes effect, when the starting capacity for grid connection is reached, the “On-Grid info” in the output column of “Device” interface will automatically turn on and the device starts grid connection; when the ending capacity for grid connection is reached, the “On-Grid info” will automatically turn off and the device finishes grid connection. The default grid connection power for “Auto MIG SOC” is 200W. For example, set 95% start and 90% end: when the solar energy charges the device to 95%; when the capacity is ≤ 90%, the device will automatically turn off the MIG function and stop grid connection power.  

* Within the set capacity range for automatic grid connection, please make sure the device is charged by solar energy and connected to the power grid, and the power grid is in normal condition for this function to work.  

* When the setting “MIG timing” or “Auto MIG SOC” is set successfully the device enters the power connection waiting period and the   “MIG” symbol appears and flashes on the device’s LCD. When the power connection takes effect, the “MIG” symbol remains on.

11) “AC charging timing on/off” : The AC charging timing function can be turned on or off. When the “AC charging timing setting” is effective, this switch will be turned on automatically.

12) “AC charging timing setting”: The start time and end time of AC charging can be set. After this setting takes effect, the “AC charging mode” in the input column of the   “Device” interface will automatically turn on and the device will start AC charging; when the end time of AC charging is reached, the “AC charging mode” will automatically turn off and the device will stop AC charging. * Please make sure that the device is connected to the power grid during the set period of AC charging and the power grid is in the normal state for this function to work.

AC charging timing and MIG timing cannot work at the same time. If both are enabled in the app, MIG timing will take precedence if the two periods overlap.

“AC charging timing” and “Auto MIG SOC” cannot be used at the same time.

13) “Monitor brightness”: The brightness of the device’s LCD display can be adjusted using the options “Normal brightness” and “High brightness” .
