<p>Thanks Jay,</p>
<p>I talked again with Magnum.<br>
</p>
<p>I have the latest Rev 6.1 MS-PAE 4448 so the exact implementation
has changed from that described in AN002, 5/10. The current Rev.
has changes designed to improve interaction with the GT inverters.
I didn't really get to the bottom of that. But the critical aspect
of this remains unchanged:<br>
</p>
<p>- the Magnum will have shifted the frequency <down now> by
0.5 Hz <sufficient to knock the GT inverters off-line> when
the DC voltage rises to Absorb + 4V.<br>
</p>
<p>This makes more sense than the 6V I had in my notes (which may
have meant 6V above Float.)</p>
<p>With all this in mind, I think I will plan on using this feature
as a backup to an AC dump load controller set to maintain Float
voltage.<br>

<span>This is from my notes from a tech support call, but I am
