Inverter Lights

(1)

ON/OFF/RESET

The ON/OFF Switch is a pushbutton switch used to turn only the inverter ON/OFF and is used as a RESET

Switch. When the inverter has automatically shut itself OFF due to a fault, the inverter must be RESET by

turning the ON/OFF Switch OFF or by turning a remote switch OFF. (If an automatic shutdown has

occurred due to a fault, one of the fault indicator lights will be displayed until the inverter is RESET)

(2)

“Inverter”  Indicator Light

Light Display                 Description
No light

Inverter is OFF

Solid Green

Inverter is ON and is producing AC power

Blinking Green

Inverter is in Load Demand Mode

(3)

“Battery Low” Indicator Light

Light Display                 Description
Red Light is ON

The inverter is ON and battery voltage has decreased to less than 11 volts DC.

Automatic inverter shutdown for low battery at 10.5 volts is imminent unless

the battery voltage is increased.

Blinking Red Light 

The inverter has shutdown due to a low battery voltage dropped below 10.5

volts.

(4)

“Over Temp” (Temperture)  Indicator Light

Light Display                 Description
Red Light is ON

The inverter has shut itself OFF due to excessive heating. Check for blocked

vents or any type of air obstruction to the inverter. The Inverter will

automatically restart when the inverter cools down.

(5)

Overload  Indicator Light

Light Display                 Description
Blinking Red

The inverter has shut itself OFF due to overload. The Inverter ON/OFF Switch

must be cycled to reset and restart the inverter.

Charger Lights

(6)

“BULK/ABSORPTION” Indicator Light

(See ‘Battery Charger Theory of Operation’ for battery charging performance details.)

Light Action                   Description

Blinking Yellow

The unit is in Charger Mode (shore power is ON) and the charger is in either

the BULK STAGE or ABSORPTION STAGE of the battery charging cycle.
