Operation with Optional LCD Remote
LCD Remote
A LCD remote may be purchased separately for “R” suffix models to connect to the inverter through the RJ45
port on the front of the inverter. The remote display will provide the current input voltage and output wattage of
the inverter while in inverter mode. When in charge mode, the display will provide the output voltage and current.
When the inverter is operating under a fault condition, the display will provide the fault condition.
Once the inverter/charger has been fully installed and wired, and power has been applied, the optional LCD
remote panel will be active. This display panel shows the status and configuration information of the inverter/
charger by pressing the “Info” key. The inverter can be turned on and off by pressing the “On/Off ” key and make
configuration changes by holding down the “Display” key to enter a settings menu.

Once DC power is applied, the first message on the remote display will be “Inverter Off/ System Off.” This
message means that both the charger and inverter are off and that the unit is not plugged into shore power.
Otherwise, there likely is a problem with the AC power coming to the unit.
Refer to the owner’s manual for further details on the operation of the LCD remote. The standard Dimensions
display model number is 141537. The remote display may be purchased separately from the factory.
Either the optional remote or any remote “On/Off ” switch may be used to turn on the inverter. To turn off the
inverter, all remote “On/Off ” switches and the optional LCD remote must be switched off. If any of these are still
on, the unit will continue to operate.
