1.  Turn off the DC switch and then disconnect the
     AC circuit breaker. Prevent them from inadvertently 
     reconnecting during inverter installation.

2.  Secure the backplate to the wall with the  provided
     mounting kits. Hang the inverter to the two recesses
     of the backplate.To protect the inverter from theft,                  
     you can lock it to the backplate with a padlock.

3.  Allow sufficient room around the inverter to 
     enable unobstructed air flow during installation. 
     For multiple inverters installation, positionthe 
     inverters in staggered arrangement.

•  The theft protection is optional.
•  You shall lock the inverter to the mounted eye plate of  
   the backplate with a suitable (stainless, secured shackle 
   and lock cylinder) padlock.
•  You must ensure that the key is available at all times for 
   possible service purposes.

5. The inverter is equipped with second protective earth terminal as specified in EN 50178. Users may  
     choose to connect PE connection.

The PV input configuration mode should be consistent with the setting in the LCD.

4.  Plug the AC connector into AC terminal placed      
     underneath the inverter. Connect  the “PE” cable
     to the grounding electrode and connect the
     phase cable and “N” cable to the AC circuit 
     breaker as shown on the right.

6. Check the cable polarities of PV input before PV input connection. Connect the DC plug-in connectors 
    to corresponding DC terminals. Connect other PV strings following the same procedures if necessary. 
    Unused DC terminals should be sealed.

The inverter can work on independent mode and parallel mode, you can connect PV input as shown
(In parallel mode, one pair of DC terminals in DC1 input and DC2 input must be short-circuited by 
Y-type cable connector terminal.).
