Operation
GFCI-Protected AC Outlets
The AC outlets are Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets.
This protects you against hazardous electrical shocks that could be
caused by dampness, faulty mechanism in the appliance, worn
insulation, etc.
To test (or reset) the GFCI protection:
1. Press the unit’s power switch to turn the inverter On.
2. Plug a test lamp into the AC outlet.
3. Push the TEST button.
Note: The RESET button should pop out and the power should
turn Off (the lamp should go out). If the lamp remains lit, or if
the RESET button does not pop out, the GFCI may not be
functioning.
If the GFCI trips by itself at any time, reset it and perform the
preceding test.
Reading the Front Panel Indicators
Indicator LEDs
• If the Green LED is On, it indicates that the unit is On. Under
normal operating conditions, the AC outlets and USB port have
power. However, even under an error condition such as a
shutdown, the Green LED may still remain On.
• If the Red LED is on, it indicates an error or alarm condition
and an error code is displayed on the digital display underneath
the LED.
Digital Display
• Under normal operating conditions, the digital display shows
the input voltage (in volts) and the output power (in kilowatts).
• Under error or alarm conditions, the digital display shows an
error code and the Red LED turns on.
IMPORTANT: Test the GFCI periodically to make sure it is operating
correctly.
