Note: The values shown on the home screen of each system represent each system's contribution, not the total of
the array.
Note: If an error or fault occurs on any unit, all units will shut down. They will automatically attempt to restart
up to 5 times before requiring a manual restart. If a manual restart is necessary, first resolve the issue that
caused the shutdown. A manual restart requires powering down the system (See Pg. 24).
