Converter — inverter/charger (function 6)

A converter between two power sides — typically shore or generator AC on one side and the battery bank on the other. A reversible unit is both an inverter and a charger, so it publishes two frames: life for the output side and state for the input side, each with its own voltage and current. Commands force it on, off, charger-only or inverter-only, and set the AC input current limits.

• state enum: off, bulk, absorption, float, fault.
• deviceMode enum: charger only, inverter only, on, off, automatic.

Command — device/6/<i>/command

Regex ^device/6/([[:digit:]]+)/command$. auto clears forceOn/forceOff. forceOn+forceOff → forceOn cleared. If both AC max set, AC2 is dropped. setCurrentAC*Max value is in amps (encoded ×10 on the bus).

auto	bool	Automatic mode
forceOn	bool	Force on
forceOff	bool	Force off
forceInverterOnly	bool	Inverter only
forceChargerOnly	bool	Charger only
setCurrentAC1Max	int	AC1 max current (A)
setCurrentAC2Max	int	AC2 max current (A)
