  • Page 2: Important Safety Information

    IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Please read this manual thoroughly before use and store in a safe place for future reference. WARNINGS • For indoor use out of weather only. • For use with negatively earthed vehicles & systems only. • Internally bonded for safety, battery DC negative to case & AC socket earth. •...
  • Page 3 FEATURES PURE SINE WAVE OUTPUT There are two different types of inverters, modified sine wave and pure sine wave. The difference between the two is how closely the output replicates mains power. Logically it follows that the process used in a pure sine wave inverter is more complex than a modified sine wave inverter and subsequently more expensive.

  • Page 9 AC output power can be wired directly from the OUTPUT terminals of the inverter allowing connection to external GPO’s in addition to the outputs located on the front of the IP2000/IP3000 unit. 1. Ensure the inverter is turned off and disconnected from DC & AC mains power.
  • Page 10 WIRING AC MAINS POWER TO THE INVERTER 1. Ensure the inverter is turned off and disconnected from DC power, also ensure AC mains wiring to be connected to the inverter is isolated and safe to work with. 2. To gain access to the INPUT terminals remove the cover located at the back of the unit using a phillips head screw driver.
  • Page 11 REMOTE CONTROL DISPLAY To install the remote control, insert the data plug into the data socket at the rear of the inverter. To operate the inverter using the remote, the inverter On/Off switch must be turned to ON. The remote is equipped with an LCD screen identical to the inverter, as well a bi-colour status L.E.D and audible alarm.

    REMOVING REMOTE CONTROL FLUSH MOUNT 1. Pull the remote control sideways and firmly lift 2. The remote will click out of place SURFACE MOUNT 1. Holding the remote on either side, push upwards. 2. Squeeze the sides together to lift away.
  • Page 14 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INVERTER These inverters are equipped with an audible alarm and a multi-function LCD screen with selection buttons allowing you to monitor the inverter’s performance. During normal operation, the LCD screen will default to the VOLTS display (input battery voltage).
  • Page 15: Eco Mode Settings

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS To operate the inverter turn the inverters On/Off switch to ON. The inverter will beep momentarily while it carries out a brief self-analysis before supplying power to the AC socket. To turn off, turn the inverter On/Off switch to OFF. Note: Ensure the RCD Switch is down, the red indicator will be showing.

  • Page 18: Troubleshooting (Faq)

    TROUBLESHOOTING/FAQ: Q. Why does the inverter turn itself off? A. If the inverter’s audible alarm sounds and a fault L.E.D illuminates, this indicates that there is a fault or error, and the inverter may turn off. Most commonly this would be caused by an appliance that is drawing too much power (overloading), low battery voltage or voltage drop due to insufficient size cables or poor connections (refer to ‘Faults &...
  • Page 19 Q. Why does it damage the inverter if the battery leads are reverse-connected? A. Your inverter uses sophisticated electronics to convert DC battery power to AC mains power. If you accidentally connect the inverter to the battery incorrectly (reverse polarity) a large current will be drawn by the inverter which will blow the protection fuse.
