4. OPERATION

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!

1. Plug in the powercord. If the main panel circuit breakers are switched on, RV load

should operate normally. Unplug the powercord.

2. Start the generator. There is a preprogrammed 20-30 second delay in the transfer

switch. The delay is designed to allow the generator a brief warm-up period. When

the delay completes its cycle the switch should engage and the RV load should

operate normally. An audible click should sound as the switch engages.

3. Shut down the generator. As the generator winds down the switch should disengage

without chatter or cycling. An audible click should sound as the switch disengages.

4. Plug in the powercord. Start the generator. After the preprogrammed delay, the

switch should transfer power automatically from the powercord to the generator.

Listen for the audible click as the switch transfers, as there will likely be no other

indication that the switch has engaged. Shut down the generator and unplug the

powercord.

5. On transfer switch arrangements with three power supplies, plug in the powercord,

start the generator, and turn on the inverter. With all three supplies energized at

the same time, the switch will select the generator for the primary supply choice.

Shut down the generator. The switch will transfer to the powercord. Unplug the

powercord. The switch will transfer to the inverter. The inverter should always be

connected so that it is only selected in the absence of both the other supplies.

Low voltage is harmful to most appliances. Contractor-based transfer switches are

also affected by low voltage; if the voltage level drops far enough the contractor

points will "chatter". Sustained contact chattering can cause transfer switch damage.

Switches that have been damaged by chattering need to be returned to the factory

for replacement.
