Overload warning lamp
During power generation, if a problem occurs with a connected device, there is an overload, or the inverter
control unit overheats, the electronic breaker will be activated and interrupt power output to protect the gen-
erator and/or connected devices.
➢
When the electronic breaker operates:
The engine continues to run, but the control unit stops output
The output indicator (green) turns off
The overload indicator (red) turns on
■
When the overload warning light turns on:
➢
Stop the engine.
Verify the required load of the connected device, and reduce to the rated load of the generator if necessary.
Verify whether or not there is a problem with a connected device. (A possible cause of excessive current
drain.)
Check for foreign matter in the cooling air inlet and areas around the control unit which could block incom-
ing air.
➢
To return the generator to normal output operation:
Temporarily stopping the engine and re-starting automatically resets the system to its original state.
(The system cannot be reset unless power to the control unit is interrupted by stopping the engine.)
