2.5.6 Remote Control
Apart from the switch panel on the front (or top) side of the inverter, an extra LCD remote switch panel
(Figure 11, sold separately Part #: REMOTELF) connected to the remote port at the DC side of the inverter
through a standard Ethernet cable can also control the operation of the inverter.
If an extra switch panel is connected to the inverter via “remote control port”, together with the panel on the
inverter case, the two panels will be connected and operated in parallel.
Whichever first switches from “Off” to “Power saver off” or “Power saver on”, it will power the inverter
on.
If the commands from the two panels conflict, the inverter will operate according to the following priority:
Power saver on> Power saver off> Power off
Only when both panels are turned to the “Unit Off” position, will the inverter be powered off.
The Max length of the LCD remote
control data cable is 60 feet (18 meters).
The LCD remote control panel will display
the operation status of the inverter,
including:
•
Input AC Voltage
•
Output AC Voltage
•
Battery Voltage
•
Output Frequency
•
Output Load
•
Work Mode
•
Alarm
•
Fault
•
Battery Capacity
A push button on the left of the panel can
be used to turn off the LCD screen and save 0.1A current draw on the battery.
WARNING
Never cut the telephone cable when the cable is attached to inverter and battery is connected to the
inverter. Even if the inverter is turned off, it will damage the remote PCB inside if the cable is short
circuited during cutting.
