Connecting the RC8 to the Inverter
To connect the RC8 to the inverter:
1. Connect the communications cable to the RJ11 Port on
the back of the RC8.
2. Position the remote into the opening in the wall and
secure it with the two screws provided.
3. Switch the inverter OFF. Plug the communications cable
into the “RC8 REMOTE or COM” port on the inverter.

DR Series, Voyager Series and M1512/1524 Series
Inverters
When the RC8 is used with DR Series, Voyager Series, or
M1512/1524 Series inverters, its red LED will display the
following:
•
Solid
With AC line power present, the unit is charging the
batteries while directing AC to the load. With no AC line
power present, the inverter is running on the batteries and
supplying AC to the load.
•
Blinking Slow (1 to 3 flashes @ 1 second intervals)
The inverter is in search mode (no load connected).
•
Blinking Fast (3 to 5 flashes @ 1 second intervals)
The inverter is charging the batteries.
•
Flickering (3 to 5 flashes @ 1 second intervals)
The inverter has detected an overcurrent error. The LED
(and inverter) will turn OFF whenever an overcurrent
condition exceeds eight seconds.
•
Erratic Blinking (0 to 3 and 2 to 5 flashes @ 2 second
intervals)
The inverter has detected an error condition caused by
overheating, low battery voltage, or high battery voltage.
•
OFF
The inverter is OFF.
WARNING: Shock Hazard
On inverters equipped with a battery charger, the RC8 will not
necessarily control charging or AC pass-through. Some units will
always charge the batteries and pass AC power through to the
output whenever AC power is available. Refer to the appropriate
inverter owners manual for details.
ALWAYS check the inverter’s
output to verify there is no voltage present before opening or
servicing the inverter.
