Feature Identification

Identify the premium features on your specific model and quickly locate instructions on how to maximize their use.

Configuration DIP

Switches:

optimize Inverter/Charger

operation depending on your application. See Configuration 
section for setting instructions.

Operating Mode Switch:

controls Inverter/Charger operation. 

The “AUTO/REMOTE” setting ensures your equipment 
receives constant, uninterrupted AC power. It also enables the 
Inverter/Charger to be remotely monitored and controlled with 
an optional remote module (Tripp Lite model APSRM4, sold
separately or included with select models). The “CHARGE
ONLY” setting allows your batteries to return to full charge faster
by turning the inverter off which halts battery discharging. See
Operation section for setting instructions.*

“LINE”, “INVERT”, “LOAD” LEDs:

intuitive “traffic light” 

signals show whether the Inverter/Charger is operating from AC
line  power or DC battery power. It also warns you if the 
connected equipment load is too high. See Operation section for 
instructions on reading the indicator lights.

"BATT VOLTAGE" LEDs: 

these three lights will turn ON in

several sequences to show approximate battery level. See
Operation section for instructions on reading the indicator lights.

DC Power Terminals:

connect to your battery terminals. See 

Battery Connection section for instructions.

Hardwire AC Input/Output Terminals:

securely connect the

Inverter/Charger to vehicle or facility electrical system input and
recommended GFCI protected output. See AC Input/Output
Connection section for instructions.

Resettable Circuit Breaker:

protect your Inverter/Charger against

damage due to charger failure. See Operation section for 
resetting instructions.

Remote Control Module Connector:

allows remote monitoring

and control with an optional module (Tripp Lite model
APSRM4, sold separately or included with select models). See
remote module owner’s manual for connection instructions.

Battery Charge Conserver (Load Sense) Dial:

conserves 

battery power by setting the low-load level at which the
Inverter/Charger’s inverter automatically shuts off. See
Configuration section for setting instructions.

Main Ground Lug:

properly grounds the Inverter/Charger to

vehicle grounding system or to earth ground. See Configuration
section for instructions.

Multi-Speed Cooling Fan:

quiet, efficient fan prolongs equipment

service life.

Hardwire AC Input/Output Cover Plate

Battery Temperature Sensing Connector (not on 750 models):

prolongs battery life by adjusting charge based on battery tem-
perature. Use with cable (included on select models). See
Configuration section for details.

Automatic Generator Start Connector (not on 750 models):

automatically cycles generator based on battery voltage. Use
with user-supplied cable. See Configuration section for details.
