Larry,
On the RV was a modified sine wave or a SW inverter installed ?

The auto restart mode should not need to changed - I haven't seen a
situation like you describe but I suspect its just an issue of the
setting and probably the small battery size used in this RV application.

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 Has this been replaced by the Auto Restart Mode?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
