These log each of the times that the inverter ran self-test (which tests the battery and inverter 
operation 

– the primary goal is to make sure that the battery does not yet need to be replaced). 

Again, there is space for up to 75 logs. The first line of a log entry will indicate whether the self-
test was an automated monthly self-test (

MONTHLY

), or an automated yearly self-test (

YEARLY

). The 

rest of the entry will tell you the timestamp of the self-test, the duration of the test (in minutes), 
whether or not faults were detected, the output voltage (in Volts) and current (in Amps) of the 
inverter during the test, and the ambient internal temperature inside the cabinet (in degrees 
Celsius). 
 
Finally, the event log (which also has up to 75 entries) will store the results of manually evoked 
self-test events (

EVENT

). The entries will have the exact same format as the test log, but instead of 

MONTHLY

 or 

YEARLY

, it will say 

EVENT
