Use only high quality copper wiring and keep cable length from 3-6 feet (~1-2m).
A suitable breaker, at the DC source, for isolation and overload protection is recommend.
2.7 Alarm Connection
It is important to note that the electronic circuits associated with this function are directly connected within the AC output
circuits of the inverter and that for this reason the relay contact connections that are provided on the rear panel mounted
wire clamp connector MUST be considered to be at a non-SELV potential and all necessary precautions to protect the
operator from electric shock hazard must be taken.
These relay contacts must not be connected directly to any SELV or other safety connected circuit and any cables or
wiring used for such connections must be double insulated.
2.8 Inverter Operation
To operate the power inverter, turn it on using the ON/OFF switch on the front panel. The power inverter is now ready
to deliver AC power to your loads.
If you are operating several loads from the power inverter, turn them on separately after the inverter has been turned on.
This will ensure that the power inverter does not have to deliver the starting currents for all the loads at once.
CAUTION!
EXTERNAL SURFACES GET HOT.
During the period of the unit running, the case may become very
warm. Please do not touch the side marked. “
” directly.
2.8.1 Controls and indicators:
The ON/OFF switch turns the control circuit in the power inverter on and off.
2.8.2 Output Voltage Indication
When the VDC LED is lit the display shows the Output Voltage
When the unit is first switched on the VAC LED is lit and the Output Voltage is displayed as described
above.
Selection of the following parameters is achieved by pressing the Function Selector button to the right of
the display sequentially.
2.8.3 Output Current Indicator
When the AMP LED is lit the display shows the Output Current
