operation Guidelines
Operation
- A detachable 2' DC input power cord (7, Fig. 2B) has been provided.
- This unit does not have a power ON/OFF switch. The unit will switch on automatically as soon
as 12 VDC power is fed from the battery through the 12V plug adaptor (8, Fig. 2B).
- Connect the detachable DC input power cord (7, Fig. 2B) by sliding the mating Power-
pole connector (10, Fig. 2B) into the DC inlet Powerpole connector (6, Fig. 2A).
- Plug in the 12V plug adaptor (8, Fig. 2B) of the DC input cord into the 12V outlet of the
battery supply.
- When the LED Status Indicator (2, Fig. 1) is GREEN, the inverter's AC Outlet (3, Fig.1) and USB
port (1, Fig.1) will have voltage outputs.
- Insert plug of your electrical appliance into the AC Outlet (3, Fig. 1) of the inverter.
- Remove the inverter from the 12V outlet when not in use. This will prevent unnecessary drain
from the battery.
the inverter is protected against the following abnormal conditions:
Overload and short circuit on the aC output side
- If the load exceeds 120W, the output voltage will start dropping, but the unit will not
shut down.
- The LED Status Indicator (2, Fig.1) will remain GREEN.
-
The output voltage waveform will be distorted and will not have pure sine waveform,
but will be clipped at top and bottom and will look like a square waveform.
- There will be excessive RF noise.
- The until will reset automatically once the overload is removed.
Over temperature due to fan failure or due to lack of cool replacement air
- The unit will shut down if temperature of hot spot inside the unit > 105°C. The LED
Status Indicator (2, Fig. 1) will turn ORANGE.
- The unit will reset automatically on cooling.
Low DC Input voltage
- The unit will shut down if DC input voltage is < 10 VDC.
- The LED Status Indicator (2, Fig. 1) will turn ORANGE.
- The unit will reset automatically when the voltage rises to 11.5 VDC.
