V 2.0 Introduction The AIMS Power inverter 8000 Watt inverter are the most advanced line of mobile DC to AC power systems available. AIMS also offers the 10,000 Watt in 12V, or 12,000 Watt in 24V. This model is used in a wide range of applications including back up power for remote homes, off-grid systems, RVs, boats, commercial vehicles and mobile businesses.
V 2.0 FUNCTIONS FRONT VIEW D: Bar meters B: Over temperature indicator A: On/Off switch C: Over load E: AC outlets indicator G: AC terminal Block F: Remote port A. On/Off switch: Leave in the OFF position during installation. B. Over temperature indicator: Lights when inverter protects itself against overheating. Inverter shuts down while indicator is on.
V 2.0 REAR VIEW A: Fan B: Battery terminal (-) B: Battery terminal (+) C: Chassis grounding A: Fan: Do not obstruct, allow at least l inch for air flow. B: Battery terminals: Connect to 12V, or 24V, or 36V, or 48V (depending on inverter model) battery (s) or other DC power source.
V 2.0 The other indicators should be off. 4. Set power inverter switch to the OFF position, the indicator lights may blink and the internal alarm may sound momentarily. This is normal. Plug the test load into the AC receptacle on the front panel of the inverter. Leave the test load switch off. 5.
V 2.0 Caution! DO NOT allow the wires to cross or touch each other. Install the cables facing away from each other and screw tightly. When connecting the battery cables to the terminals of the inverter, make sure they do not touch the case.

V 2.0 The battery voltage bar graph indicates the voltage at the input terminals of the power inverter. At low input current, this voltage is very close to the battery voltage. At high input current, this voltage will be lower than the battery voltage because of the voltage drop across the cable and connections. Ideally, the voltage should remain in the green area of the bar graph.
V 2.0 Make sure that the battery connections are good and that the battery is fully charged. If the connections are good and the battery to is charged, but the voltage still drops below 11 volts, you may need a larger battery or larger battery bank.
