3.2 Front Panel
ON / OFF Control Switch
The ON/OFF Switch must be in the ON position when using Remote Control.
Remote Control Terminal
A green two-terminal connector located on the front panel allows remote ON/OFF control of the inverter
by a customer-supplied ON/OFF switch.
Standard Operation (Not using remote control): The inverter is shipped with a jumper connecting
terminals Vout and Vin. With the jumper in place (remote control not being used) the inverter is fully
functional using the ON/OFF Control Switch located on the front of the inverter.
Remote Control via customer-supplied SPST switch: If it is desired to remotely control the inverter from a
customer-supplied remote switch, remove the jumper connecting terminals Vout and Vin. Supply a 12v
(24v signal on 24v units) continuous signal to terminal Vin to turn the inverter ON. The source of the 12v
signal can be battery voltage for single-wire remote control or terminal Vout for two-wire-remote-control.
The most common remote control wiring arrangement uses a "hot in run" circuit from the vehicle fuse
panel for the 12v signal. This arrangement automatically turns the inverter ON when the vehicle is ON
and automatically turns the inverter OFF when the vehicle is OFF.
Green Connector Details: Terminal Vout is current limited, therefore if terminal Vout is used as the source
for the remote control signal, a fuse is not required in the remote control circuit. If Vout is
not
used as the
remote control signal, use a 5 amp fused circuit for the remote control signal.
The green connector can be removed from the inverter by pulling the connector outward. The two
upward facing screws are used to tighten the compression terminals for attachment of the signal wire(s).
