1.0 Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the CSW Series pure sine wave inverter.
The CSW Series includes the CSW412, CSW1012 and CSW2012 inverters;
under the Magnum-Dimensions brand from Sensata Technologies. The CSW
Series inverters are “pure” sine wave inverters designed to be powerful, yet
simple to operate, and will provide you with reliable AC power for trouble-
free use. Please read the Introduction section to familiarize yourself with the
features and bene
fi
ts of your CSW Series inverter.
1.1
Front/Back Features – CSW1012 and CSW2012
The front panels of the CSW1012 and CSW2012 inverters are similar and are
equipped with the following features (see Figure 1-1):
1. Serial
Number
– the unique identi
fi
cation number assigned to each
unit (with a model-speci
fi
c pre
fi
x).
Note: Enter your inverter’s serial number in the table on page i. It is to
easier to record this information now, instead of trying to gather it after the
unit has been installed.
2. GFCI
– a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter protected AC outlet. The GFCI
outlet quickly stops the
fl
ow of electricity in the event a ground fault
occurs on the device that is plugged into the inverter.
3. Status
Indicator
– an at-a-glance LED that provides the inverter’s
status—lights green, red, or amber (see Section 3.0 Operation).
4. Digital
Display
– a three-character alphanumeric display that shows
the inverter’s measured battery voltage, total AC output power, and any
error or warning codes.
5. Power/Select
Button
– a momentary button switch that allows the
inverter to be quickly turned on or off.
6. Remote
Port
– a RJ12 connector that allows an optional remote switch
to be connected via a remote cable.
Note:
Remote switch is sold separately (PN: CSW-RS).
7. USB
Port
– allows USB-enabled devices to be powered and charged.
