Introduction

Congratulations! You’ve purchased the most advanced, feature-rich integrated
inverter/charger on the market. Your APS powers connected equipment, switching 
manually or automatically from utility power to power inverted from an external battery or
batteries. In addition to reliable APS performance, your model provides:

High Efficiency Output 

Your APS’s advanced circuitry produces a more efficient DC-to-AC conversion, minimizing
energy loss.This allows you to run connected equipment longer between battery charges.
The APS will maintain this highly-efficient output even as the battery charge decreases.

Automatic Overload Protection

If you overload your APS, it will automatically protect itself and your valuable batteries
from damage.

Multi-Function Indicator Lights

Several sets of multi-function indicator lights keep you constantly informed of battery
charge levels, fault conditions and APS operation.

Multi-Operation Switches

An array of user-configurable switches gives you convenient options when operating your
APS.You can select the voltage level at which your APS’s inverter will turn on to maximize
equipment protection and minimize battery drain; set your APS for maximum charging
efficiency with your battery type; even set up your APS for remote control operation.
