Chassis ground a) Ventilation port: Do not obstruct, allow at least 1 inch for air flow. b) Battery terminals: Connect to 12 V battery or other 12 V power source. Note that "+" is positive, "-" is negative. Reverse polarity connection will blow internal fuse and may damage inverter permanently. c) Chassis ground lug: Connect to earth ground or to vehicle chassis using #8 AWG wire.
Go Power! Modified Sine Wave Inverter Owner’s Manual d) Safe - Do not install the inverter in the same compartment as batteries or in any compartment capable of igniting flammable liquids such as gasoline. e) Inverter should be located within 10 feet of the batteries. 4.2 Hook-up and testing To hook-up the inverter please follow these guidelines: Caution! A reverse polarity connection will permanently damage the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity connection is not covered by our warranty. 1.

The power inverter is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads.
Go Power! Modified Sine Wave Inverter Owner’s Manual 5.3 Battery voltage indicator The battery voltage bar graph indicates the voltage at the input terminals of the power inverter. At low input current, this voltage is very close to the battery voltage. At high input current, this voltage will be lower than the battery voltage. Ideally, the voltage should remain in the green areas of the bar graph. If the voltage goes into the red area at the top or bottom of the graph, the inverter may shut-down. 5.
Go Power! Modified Sine Wave Inverter Owner’s Manual 6.2 Input voltage The power inverter will operate from input voltage ranging 10 V – 15 V. If the voltage drops below 10.7 V, an audible low battery warning will sound and the voltage indicator will be in the lower red zone. The power inverter will shut down if the input voltage drops below 10 V. This protects your battery from being over discharged. The power inverter will also shut down if the input voltage exceeds 15 V.
Go Power! Modified Sine Wave Inverter Owner’s Manual No output voltage, no voltage indication. Inverter switched off. No power to inverter. Internal fuse open. Reverse DC polarity. No output voltage, voltage indicator in upper red zone. High input voltage.
Go Power! Modified Sine Wave Inverter Owner’s Manual 10. RV Supplement 10.1 Installing the GP 2500, GP 1750HD, and without an automatic transfer switch • • • • Plug main power cord into inverter (a 15 amp adapter may be required). Battery inter-connects should be a minimum of 4 gauge. Ensure converter is turned Off when plugging into inverter. To avoid hidden loads turn inverter off when power is not required.
