Note:
The audible alarm may make a momentary "chirp" when the inverter is turned OFF
(O). This same alarm may also sound when the inverter is being connected to or
disconnected from the 12 volt power source. When using an extension cord from
the inverter to the appliance the extension cord should be no more than 50 feet
long. At this length there should be no measurable decrease in power from the
inverter.
Television and Audio Suggestions
Although all PowerBright inverters are shielded and filtered to minimize signal
interference, some interference with your television picture may be unavoidable,
especially with weak signals.
However, here are some suggestions that may improve reception.
1. First, make sure that the television antenna produces a clear signal under
normal operating conditions. Also, ensure that the antenna cable is
properly shielded and of good quality.
2. Change the positions of the inverter, antenna cables and television power
cord.
3. Isolate the television, its power cord and antenna cables from the 12 volt
power source by running an extension cord from the inverter to the
television set.
4. Coil the television power cord and the input cables running from the 12
volt power source to the inverter.
5. Attach a "Ferrite Data Line Filter" to the television power cord. More than
one filter may be required. These filters are available at most electronic
supply stores.
Note:
Some inexpensive audio systems may discharge a slight "buzzing" sound
when operated with the inverter. This is caused by deficient filters in the audio
system. The only solution to this problem is using a sound system with a higher
quality power supply.
