1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the TBS Electronics Universal Remote Control (URC) for
controlling the following TBS devices : - Powersine PS1000-1800 inverters

The URC features an advanced graphical display and a smart user interface for easy
operation. Using the URC you can readout all available parameters of the connected TBS
