FRONT PANEL / REAR PANEL & REMOTE CONTROL 2.1 Front panel (E1000) ON/OFF switch: The E 1000 features one ON/OFF switch on the front panel. The ON/OFF switch is turning the inverter’s control circuit ON and OFF. It does not disconnect power from the inverter;...
CAUTION! Leave in the OFF position during the installation. Front panel (HD1200 – HD1800 – HD2500 – HDi1800 – HDi3000) ON/OFF switch: The ON/OFF switch located on the remote control (factory installed on the inverter front panel) turns the inverter’s control circuit ON and OFF. It does not disconnect power from the inverter;...
LCD remote control (all models except E1000) Your new inverter is equipped with an LCD remote control. During normal operation of the inverter, the remote will display a number of information to allow its user to better understand the operational limits of the inverter.
PERMANENT INSTALLATION The use of the Tundra International CM SERIES installation kits is strongly recommended. These complete installation kits are custom designed to maximize the performances of our inverters and to promote the safest possible installation. It also helps eliminate the difficult task of sourcing the right material and to cut down on installation costs and time.
CM SERIES installation kit content High quality cables - 6 to 12ft./pole (1.83 to 3.7m./pole) depending on the chosen kit Tin plated terminal lugs - crimped and color coded from factory 2 PVC strain reliefs - to safely run the cables through sheet metal floors Fuse kit - 1 CNL fuse rated for the chosen inverter and 1 holder Plastic “loom”...
WARNING! This equipment contains components that may produce arcs or sparks. To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not install in a compartment containing batteries or flammable materials, or in a location that requires ignition protected equipment. Mounting the inverter The inverter must be mounted on a flat and even surface using the mounting flanges.
Installation schema Battery cables installation / Inside the cab Insert the cables through the holes you just drilled in order to permanently install the strain reliefs. Tighten the nuts firmly using pliers or a wrench. Do not over tighten! Insert the include rubber insulators on the cables. Install cables on DC inputs of the inverter respecting the polarities.
DC fuse installation First, assemble the DC fuse onto the DC fuse holder. Connect the positive cable coming from the cab to one side of the fuse, and connect the 1 foot cable (30.5cm) to the other side. Do not over tighten the nuts. The terminals must be solidly fixed onto the fuse holder providing maximum contact.
Operations To operate the power inverter, turn it ON by using the ON/OFF switch on LCD remote control and/or the front panel. The inverter is now ready to deliver 120 Volt power to your loads. If you intend to operate several loads from the inverter, turn them ON one by one.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible cause Solution Fault codes and Alarms (alarm ON + inverter OFF) ERR LOW = Low input voltage Discharged batteries Recharge batteries (Yellow LED flashing & steady alarm) Insufficient battery capacity Add batteries Go through inverter’s installation Improper installation steps / Section 3 above Check vehicle alternator’s ERR HIGH = High input voltage...
