Introduction
1.3 Features and Benefi ts
The MSH3012RV inverter/charger is designed to allow easy access to wiring, circuit breakers, and
controls. Its die cast baseplate with one-piece aluminum cover ensures maximum durability with
minimum weight, as well as cooler, more ef
fi
cient operation.
The bottom of the MSH3012RV is equipped with the following features (Figures 1-1 and 1-2):
1
Power ON/OFF Switch
– a momentary pushbutton switch that alternately turns the
inverter on or off.
2
Status LED Indicator
– this green LED illuminates to provide status information on
inverter or charger operation.
3
Accessories Connection Port (red label)
– a RJ11 port that accepts optional pigtail
accessories (red-labeled).
Note:
The MSH3012RV does not have the ability to be stacked.
4
RV-C Status LED
– this yellow LED is used to determine the RV-C connection’s status.
See Section 3.8 for additional information.
5
RV-C Connection Port (white label)
– an electrically isolated CAN communication port
that allows RV-C control of the features and settings in the inverter and in any optional
network capable Magnum accessories (i.e., Auto Gen Start or Battery Monitor). See Section
2.8 for more information.
Note: If using the RV-C connector port, do not connect a remote control. The MSH3012RV
inverter
will only communicate with the remote control if connected.
6
