Feature Identification

Identify the premium features on your specific model and quickly locate instructions on how to maximize their use.

1Operating Mode Switch: controls Inverter operation. Set this 2-position slide switch to “ON/REMOTE” to have your Inverter provide connected equipment with AC power by converting DC power from an attached battery or remotely monitor and control the Inverter with the use of an optional remote module. Set switch to “OFF” when not using connected equipment to pre- vent battery drain.

2“LOAD” Indicator Lights: intuitive “traffic light” signals show approximate equipment load level. See page 4 for instructions on reading indicator lights.

3“BATTERY” Indicator Lights: intuitive “traffic light” signals show approximate charge level of your battery. See page 4 for instructions on reading indicator lights.

4DC Power Terminals: connect to your battery terminals. See page 7 for connection instructions.

5Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) AC Receptacles: allow you to connect equipment that would normally be plugged into a utility outlet. They feature ground fault interrupter switches that trip if there is excessive current on the ground safety wire.

6Resettable Circuit Breaker: protects your Inverter against damage due to overload. See page 4 for resetting instructions.

7Remote Control Module Connector: allows remote monitoring and control with an optional module (Tripp Lite model APSRM4, sold separately). See remote module owner’s manu- al for connection instructions.
