3-4.
Before proceeding further, carefully check that cable you have just connected is from the
negative terminal of the inverter to the negative output terminal of the power source.
Caution! Reverse polarity connection will blow a fuse in the inverter and may
permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity connection is
not covered by our warranty.
3-5.
Connect the cable from the positive terminal of the inverter to the positive terminal of the
power source. Make a secure connection.
Warning! You may observe a small spark when you make this connection since
current will flow to charge capacitors in the power inverter. This can be avoided by
installing a properly rated switch or circuit breaker at the power source. Do not
make this connection in the presence of flammable fumes; an explosion or fire may
result.
3-6.
Set the power switch to the ON position. Check that the Input level indicator on the front
panel of the inverter is green. If it is not, check your power source and the connections to
the inverter. The other indicators should be off.
3-7.
Set the 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.
3-8.
Set the power inverter switch to the ON position and turn the test load on. The inverter
should supply power to the load. If you plan to measure the true output RMS voltage of
inverter, a meter such as FLUKE 87, BECKMAN 4410, or TRIPLETT 4200 must be
used.
