SYSTEM SETUP AND OPERATION GUIDE FOR THE SOLAR STIK USAF G-BOSS MEDIUM AND HEAVY HYBRID POWER SYSTEM
PRELIMINARY DRAFT
High Battery
The inverter has turned off because the DC bus voltage has exceeded 34 volts. This fault message
displays and the FAULT (red) LED turns on when the battery voltage is above the High Battery Cut-
Out (HBCO) value. This fault automatically clears and the inverter resumes operation when the
battery voltage drops 0.6 VDC below the HBCO value. This fault can occur whether the inverter is
“inverting”, “searching”, or “off”.
Solution:
Check the Power Hub to ensure that it is programmed and functioning properly. Refer to
the Power Hub Operator Manual. Verify that connected batteries are all “in service” (flashing green
BATTERY STATUS LED). If the batteries are all offline, perform a full System reset (see Dead Batt
Charge Section above).
High Batt Temp
This fault message indicates the PRO-Verter has shut down because the battery temperature sensor
(BTS) inside of the PRO-Verter has reached a temperature greater than 129 °F (54 °C).
Solution
Once the BTS has cooled down to less than 120 °F (49 °C), it automatically restarts and continues
operation.
High Volts AC
This fault causes the AC input to be disabled because a very high voltage (> 300 VAC) has been
detected on the AC input.
Solution
Remove all AC power from the PRO-Verter AC input for at least 15 minutes to clear this fault. Ensure
only 230 VAC power is connected to the PRO-Verter.
Low Battery (LBCO)
No power to the loads.
The inverter has turned off to prevent the batteries from being overdischarged. The fault message
displays and the FAULT (red) LED illuminates when the battery voltage drops below the SETUP: 02B
LBCO Setting value for more than one minute. This fault may occur when
(1)
the generator failed to
start or
(2)
the battery capacity is reduced (one or more Expander Paks is offline). The fault will clear
and the inverter will automatically restart and resume operation when the battery voltage rises to
24.6 VDC.
Solution
Generator
Disconnect the Generator from the System and start it using the generator native controls. If
the generator does not start, check the generator for fault codes, adequate fuel and refer to the
generator Operator and Maintenance Manual. If the generator starts, reconnect it to the System and
attempt to start it manually (“ON”) using the PRO-Verter control (CTRL 03). If the generator does not
start using the PRO-Verter controls, ensure proper electrical connections between the PRO-Verter
and the generator and refer to the PRO-Verter Operator Manual.
Power Hub
Ensure proper electrical connections between the Power Hub and the PRO-Verter and refer to the
Power Hub Operator Manual.
