- On/off switch
|
- Press the switch to switch the device on or off.
|
- Power indicator
|
- The indicator lights green when the device is connected to a battery and switched on. The device is ready for use.
|
- Overtemperature indicator
|
- The indicator lights yellow when the device is overheated. An alarm will sound. The device switches off automatically. The device automatically switches on again when it has cooled down sufficiently.
|
- Overload indicator
|
- The indicator lights red when the device is overloaded. Switch off the device and reduce the load before switching on the device again.
|
- Battery voltage indicator (V)
|
- The indicator shows the voltage at the input terminal of the inverter.
|
- Battery current indicator (A)
|
- The indicator shows the current drawn from the battery by the inverter.
The current must be in the green zone for continuous operation. In the yellow zone, the device wil operate for several minutes. In the red zone, the device will switch off automatically. |
Terminal
- Positive pole (+, red)
- Negative pole (-, black)
|
- When connected to a battery, first switch on the inverter before switching on the connected devices. When using the inverter with several appliances at the same time, switch on the devices one after another to make sure that the inverter does not need to deliver all start-up currents for all the loads at once.
- Do not reverse the input. Do not use crocodile clips to create an electrical connection. Make sure that the inverter is switched off before connecting the inverter to the battery or other DC power source.
- Connect the red battery cable to the positive (+) pole of the battery and the positive (+) terminal of the inverter.
- Connect the black battery cable to the negative (-) pole of the battery and the negative (-) terminal of the inverter.
- Tighten the screws of the DC input cables regularly.
|
- Chassis ground lug
|
Do not operate the inverter without connecting the inverter to the ground. Risk of electrical shock. The inverter has a lug to connect the chassis with the inverter. The ground wire in the AC junction box on the output panel of the inverter is connected to the chassis. The chassis ground lug must be connected to a grounding point, which will vary depending on where the inverter is installed.
- In a vehicle, connect the chassis ground lug to the chassis of the vehicle.
- In a boat, connect the chassis ground lug to the grounding system of the boat.
- In a fixed location, connect the chassis ground lug to earth ground by a ground rod (metal rod pounded into the earth). Use a #12 AWG or larger copper wire (preferably with green/yellow insulation ) to connect the chassis ground lug to the grounding point.
The neutral conductor of the AC output circuit of the inverter is connected to chassis ground. When the chassis is connected to ground, the neutral conductor will also be grounded. |
- Cooling fan
|
- Wisdom fan start: when the temperature of inverter reach 40°C, the fan will start automatically.
|
- AC output
|
- Connect the mains cable of the device to the AC output of the inverter.
|
- Remote control jack
|
The device can be operated using the remote control. |
