1 Operating Mode
Inverter/Charger operation. When this
switch is set to AUTO, connected equipment
receives constant, uninterrupted utility AC
power, with simultaneous charging of
connected batteries. The CHARGE ONLY
setting prevents unwanted battery rundown
when there is no need for battery backup.
Connected batteries are recharged. When the
Operating Mode Switch is set to DC OFF,
both the inverter and the battery charger are
shut off. However, the unit will still pass
utility AC power to connected equipment if
it is plugged into an AC outlet.
Operation Indicator
2
intuitive "traffic light" signals show whether
the Inverter/Charger is operating from AC
line power or from DC battery power. They
also signal an alert if the connected
equipment load is too high. See Page 5A for
details.
Battery Indicator Lights: These "traffic

always pass AC power to connected
equipment if plugged into a live AC outlet,
regardless of the position of the Operating

voltage at which the Inverter/Charger will
switch from utility AC power to inverted
battery power. If this dial is set fully
counterclockwise, the unit will allow AC
input to drop to approximately 85V before
switching to inverter mode. Note: The unit
will continue to pass lower-voltage AC
utility power to connected equipment
until the unit switches to inverter mode.
8 DC Power Terminals: Connect to your
battery terminals with user-supplied cabling.
