  • Page 16: Trouble Sign

    overloaded or other failures have caused the controller overheat, engine over-speeding, or the generator is short-circuited. At this time, the controller warns you or stops the generator from working to protect the generator and connected electrical equipment. When the overload indicator (red) is on and the running indicator（green）is off, the engine will not stop.

  • Page 17: Running Indicator（Green

    2. If the green light is off and the red light flashes once every 2.5 seconds, this indicates overload protection and interrupts the output. 3. If the green light is off and the red light flashes twice at interval of 2.5 seconds, it indicates a short circuit, and the output is interrupted.

  • Page 18: Ground Terminal

    red light is flashing or remains on, determine the cause of the fault based on the flashing pattern. Press the reset button to restore the generator's output voltage. The issue is considered resolved only when the green light is constantly on without the red light flashing or remaining on.
