6.0 STARTUP AND SHUTDOWN PROCEDURES
6.1 Startup
After the AC input and output wires are connected and the battery connector is
properly installed, the unit is ready to be started up.
Ensure that the incoming AC voltage is reaching the unit by turning on all feed circuit
breakers. Once AC input is verified, simply turn on the System ON/OFF switch. The unit
will go through a series of diagnostics to verify proper connections and then will go into
the charge mode. The unit is now on-line and ready. Verify that all load connections are
operating within the specifications of the unit by measuring AC currents on both the line
and load and measure all neutral currents to ensure line and neutral currents are the
same.
Press the Test button on the front panel to verify that the multipurpose Normally-
Off/Switched outputs are all operational and ensure there are no overloads by
measuring the currents.
If alarms occur during start-up, see section 8.5 thru 8.7 for possible explanations. Also
see section 9.1 for Start-Up Mode explanations.
6.2 Shutdown
To shut the system completely down simply place the System ON/OFF switch to the
off position. If the unit is shut down for a long duration please see Battery Storage
Section 2.2 to ensure that the batteries are not damaged from the effects of self-
discharge and high ambient temperatures.
7.0 Specifications
The E3MINI Series system can be overloaded during normal operation when the
dimming option is used. The maximum allowable connected load for both the 125W and
250W model is 375W. The system must be tested to ensure that the connected load
power does not exceed the systems rated power (125W/250W) while in the Inverter
Mode of operation.
