O. Trouble Shooting:
AC output does not stay ON.
Some AC loads may not be large
enough to hold the inverter ON. This condition is indicated by the
inverter turning off after every eight to ten seconds, then back on
again. The AC Status lamp will also be flashing orange.
There are two possible solutions:
Increase the sensitivity of the inverter by turning the Standby
control
slightly
counter-clockwise until the lamp shows steady
green; increase the amount of AC load on the inverter.
Inverter shuts down due to Over Temperature.
Your inverter
will safely provide the output power defined in the technical data
section under the conditions specified. If the inverter shuts down
and indicates over temperature, it may be that you have exceeded
one of the parameters.
Check the following:
Ensure the inverter has adequate ventilation. Insufficient
ventilation can severely restrict the power output of your inverter.
Ensure that the true power rating of your appliance (including
power factor) is less than the output rating of your inverter.
Inverter shuts down when trying to start a load. A sudden surge in
load, such as a motor starting, may cause the inverter to shut
down. If this occurs; ensure the battery voltage is within
specifications when the device is trying to start: if the voltage falls
too far, you may need to increase the size of your batteries.
If the battery voltage is ok then the inverter power output may be
too small.
Common Problems:
1. Television interference
Operation of the power inverter can interfere with television
reception on some channels. If this situation occurs, the
following steps may help to alleviate the problem:
Make sure that the chassis ground lug on the back of the
power inverter is solidly connected to the ground system of
your vehicle, boat or home:
Do not operate high power loads with the power inverter while
watching television.
Make sure that the antenna feeding your television provides
an adequate (“Snow free”) signal and that you are using good
quality cable between the antenna and the television.
