    ENGLISH 5. Neutral grounding For neutral grounding you need to connect the internal ground cables: Open the front panel and connect the neutral conductor of the AC output (labelled ‘Inverter Neutral’) to the safety ground (labelled ‘GND’), see picture. Integrate a ground fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) in the wiring of the AC output.
  • Page 13 ENGLISH Remote panel (optional) Optionally the remote panel is connected to the remote port (RS-232). Before using the remote panel, make sure the main switch is at “REMOTE” position before startup. Terminal for remote switch and CAN termination This terminal offers two functions: •...
  • Page 14 ENGLISH 7. AC input mode In AC input mode the inverter switches from the default Inverter mode to Bypass mode when an approved mains power supply is detected at the AC input. In Bypass mode the mains are directly connected to the load, saving battery power. The AC input is available on the hard-wire terminal behind the front panel.
