Welcome to OutBack Power Technologies
Thank you for purchasing the OutBack FX and VFX Mobile Series Inverter/Chargers. These products are
designed to offer a complete power conversion system between batteries, shore power, and generator.
In shore-based mobile and marine connections, the shore power (utility grid) is used as the primary
source. When the shore power is removed, the inverter takes over to run the loads from the batteries.
