Hi All, It’s my understanding that that yes the EQ on the inverter/charger needs to be started manually, but if the gen is running for an EQ cycle and it turns off (say runs out of fuel) before the EQ cycle is complete, the Outback charge controllers can still be in EQ mode. This happened to a few customers, and they were doing an EQ from the sun without knowing it. This was a while ago, so maybe there has been a firmware revision??
