Operation
This unit is designed for simple and intuitive operation. Before operating, the inverter must be
properly installed and connected. See
Installation
and
AC/DC Connections
for more information.
TO OPERATE THE INVERTER:
1. Move the Power Switch to ON to energize the circuitry.
2. The Invert LED and either the 50 Hz or 60 Hz LED will glow green indicating proper
operation and the presence of AC power at the outputs.
3. The inverter will automatically begin supplying the connected load with voltage and
current printed on its label.
TO END OPERATION:
1. Move the Power Switch to OFF to end operation.
2. Wait for all the LEDs to turn off.
3. The inverter can now be safely disconnected from the load and power source. It can then be
serviced or put into storage.
There are eight indicator LEDs on the inverter’s front panel which display it’s operating condition.
The table below details their meanings:
LEDs
Meaning
LOW
VOLTAGE
• Blinks red when the input voltage nears the minimum limit for proper operation.
• Glows red when the input voltage is too low for proper operation. The Bypass
LED will also glow red and the Invert LED will turn off.
HIGH
VOLTAGE
• Blinks red when the input voltage nears the maximum limit for proper operation.
• Glows red when the input voltage is too high for proper operation. The Bypass
LED will also glow red and the Invert LED will turn off.
OVER TEMP
• Blinks red when the unit’s internal temperature nears the safe limit. The
inverter will automatically derate its maximum power rating to try to
maintain a safe operating temperature.
• Glows red when the inverter is too hot to operate. The Bypass LED will
also glow red and the Invert LED will turn off.
OVER LOAD
• Blinks red when the current being drawn reaches the unit’s continuous rating.
• Glows red when the current being drawn reaches the unit’s peak rating.
50 HZ
• Glows green if the inverter’s output frequency is set to 50.00 Hz. This
setting can be changed using
InverterWizard
,
60 HZ
• Glows green if the inverter’s output frequency is set to 60.00 Hz. This set-
ting can be changed using
InverterWizard
.
BYPASS
• Glows green if the inverter is in Bypass mode and functioning as an Off-line
Uninterruptible Power Supply. For more information, see
Off-line UPS
.
• Glows red when the inverter is experiencing a malfunction.
INVERT
• Glows green when the inverter operating normally.
