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.
