Owners Manual

Once the inverter has been fully installed and wired, and DC power has been
applied, the inverter is ready to turn on. The Status LED to the right side of the
GFCI
shows the status information of the inverter.
1)
Turning the Inverter “ON”
The inverter can now be turned on by
using the front panel switch (standard
or "H" version only) or the remote switches – 2 options: cable assy or
customer provided switch. When the inverter is On, the local Status LED will
be a constant green. The optional Sensata provided remote switch will be a
constant Red. Any switch may turn on the inverter. All switches must be off
to turn off the inverter.
1) Sleep Mode
The inverter has a Sleep Mode feature which if enabled can significantly reduce
DC power drawn over long periods of no-load operation to help preserve
battery life. If Sleep Mode is enabled the inverter output will automatically turn
off when AC loads greater than 15W are not present for 60 seconds. The
inverter will check for the presence of a load once a second and will
automatically restart on when it reappears. NOTE – The LED on the GFCI
will blink when the inverter has gone to sleep.
NOTE – While in sleep mode it may take up to one second for the load
to
r
e
ceive power when the load is
applied.
NOTE – The LED on the GFCI will blink when the inverter
has
gone to
sleep. Refer to page 7 for configuration information.
1)
Shutdown Timer
As an alternative to sleep mode, a user-selectable shutdown timer is available to
disable the inverter after fixed periods (regardless of output load). Standard
timer settings are OFF, 30
minutes and 60 minutes. Refer to page 7 for
configuration information. Following shutdown, the DC input current will be
less than 0.5mA. Cycling the ON/OFF control will restart the inverter.
1) Low Battery Shutdown
Low Battery Shutdown is a protective measure to prevent deep discharge of
the battery and/or to make sure that the starting batteries have enough
power to start the vehicle. There are two user-selectable shutdown points of
10.5VDC & 11.7VDC. Refer to page 7 for configuration information.
