  • Page 4: Connection Of Ac And Dc Wiring

    CONNECTION OF AC AND DC WIRING IMPORTANT: Before making any wiring connections, check that the circuit breaker on the front panel is in the OFF position, i.e.; LEVER DOWN. Your electrician should firstly connect the AC wiring via the three terminal junction box. Carefully observe the correct connections.
  • Page 5: Operation

    OPERATION STANDBY mode means that the WM1200 is producing pulses of power to sense when an appliance is switched on. This is called the demand start because as soon as the appliance is switched on, the WM1200 will turn on and provide full power to the appliance. The inverter will drop back into standby mode once all loads have been switched off for longer than 10 seconds.
  • Page 6: Status & Alarm Indicators - Led 5 (Green) Off

    STATUS & ALARM INDICATORS - LED 5 (green) OFF When power is first applied LED 1 should flash. When LED 5 is OFF, this indicates the LED (1) – (4) is showing the inverters STATUS, as per written notation to the right of the LED’s. In this mode there are no adjustments to be made. LED 1 Flashing indicates the WM1200 is in Auto Start mode, this indicates that no power is being drawn from the inverter so it has gone to SLEEP to save power.

  • Page 8: Fault Finding

    FAULT FINDING 1. INVERTER STAYS ON EVEN WHEN NO APPLIANCE IS BEING USED. Some appliances such as Microwave Cookers or Video Recorders still draw current when not in use. This is to power their displays. This is a common problem known as a "phantom load", but it can be easily overcome with the WM1200.
  • Page 9: System Maintenance

    SYSTEM MAINTENANCE To get the optimum performance from your WM1200 power inverter, particularly under heavy appliance loads, it is essential that the battery bank and the DC wiring are all in good condition. The small amount of time spent on the maintenance tasks below will maximise the reliability of your system.

  • Page 11: Radio Frequency Interference

    RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can be a problem for owners of inverters. RFI in a domestic situation may produce noise or interference on a radio or TV receiver. Considerable development time has resulted in a reduction of the RFI generated by the inverter to a level that complies with C-tick requirements.
