Keep the inverter
turned off
when you plug the remote switch for the first time. In the future,
always make sure to keep the main switch of the inverter in
Off (middle) position
if you intend to use a
remote switch connected via the
“Remote control” socket.
If you haven
’t bought a separate remote On/Off switch, the built-in black On/Off control panel on
top of the inverter can be used as a remote switch. For that disconnect the inverter from the battery and
AC, then turn the inverter On for 5 sec. to discharge internal capacitors. Remove 4 screws holding the
panel, take it out and disconnect the cable from the socket inside. Use a suitable length/grade 6-pin
RJ11 extension cable to move the black On/Off panel to the new location. Cover the hole in the inverter
case thoroughly with tape.
Connecting a generator
This inverter can accept power from a generator connected to the mains AC input of the inverter.
Note: for best performance, it is recommended that the generator nominal power
rating is twice as high as the nominal power of the inverter. Lower power rating of
the generator might cause a problem when the inverter works with high loads.
To proceed with the installation of the generator, keep the inverter off and start the generator.
When it is ready and running at normal speed, connect the generator
’s output to the inverter’s AC input
terminals. There must be no load connected to the inverter (nothing connected to the AC output of the
inverter) at this point. Then, turn on the inverter. At this point the load can be connected.
