5.5.2 Step 2: Other settings
The remaining settings are not relevant (na) for slaves.
Some of the remaining settings are not relevant for followers (L2, L3). These settings are imposed on the whole system by the leader
L1. If a setting is irrelevant for L2, L3 devices, this is mentioned explicitly.

ds6: absorption time 8 or 4 hours (na for L2, L3)
ds5: adaptive charging characteristic (na for L2, L3)
ds4: dynamic current limiter
ds3: UPS function
ds2: converter voltage
ds1: converter frequency (na for L2, L3)
(the wide input frequency range (45-55Hz) is 'on' by default)
Step 2: Exemplary settings for stand-alone mode
Example 1 is the factory setting (since factory settings are entered by computer, all DIP switches of a new product are set to 'off' and do
not reflect the actual settings in the microprocessor.).

3 UPS function: on
2 Voltage: 230V
1 Frequency: 50Hz
To store the settings after the required values have been set: press the 'Down' button for 2 seconds (lower button to the right of the DIP
switches). The temperature and low-battery LED's will flash to indicate acceptance of the settings.
The DIP switches can be left in the selected positions, so that the 'other settings' can always be recovered.
