WARNING: Shock Hazard and Equipment Damage
It may be necessary to remove the ribbon cables in the course of servicing the Radian. (This is detailed in
the Radian service manual.) The cables must never be removed until all power has been disconnected from
the Radian for a minimum of one minute. If the cables are removed prematurely, the Radian’s capacitors
will retain a sizable charge, which can cause electrical shock or severe equipment damage during normal
handling. This damage is not covered under the unit’s warranty.
12V AUX: Delivers 12 Vdc up to
0.7
amps (8.4 watts). The output can
be switched on and off for many
functions. See page 26 for details.

manual
on/off switch to control the

NOTE:
The ON/OFF INV jumper (J3)
overrides these terminals when installed.
(See above.)
RELAY AUX: Relay contacts with no
voltage (
10 amps at 250 Vac or 30 Vdc).
The relay can be
switched on and off for
many functions. See page 26 for details.
ON/OFF INV JUMPER (J3): Overrides the
SWITCH INV terminals when installed. When
installed, the inverter is ON. The ON or OFF

external OFF command at the same time. Its
initial state will be OFF.
