CAUTION:

Never disconnect the DC cables from the inverter without first disconnecting the cables from the battery or potentially lethal electricity will be left exposed.

NOTE: The Power Button turns the control circuit in the inverter on and off. It does not disconnect power from the inverter. When the button is in the off position, the inverter draws no current from the battery. When it’s in the on position, but no power is being supplied to a load, the inverter draws less than ½ amp from the battery. This is low current draw. It would take more than a week to discharge a 100 ampere hour battery at this rate depending on the age of the battery. For safety disconnect the RPPD2000 from the battery when not in use.

Operating Indicators:

Indicators on the output end of the unit show the inverters power status and alarms for conditions that could cause it to shut down. When the inverter power is on, the voltage input and power output indicators, automatically toggle between input and output values at three-second intervals. The three LEDs indicate the mode the meter is in and the three digits indicate the voltage or power value.

NOTE: Once the inverter power output value has exceeded 999 watts, the

display will indicate kilowatts. Example: 1.25 kilowatts = 1250 watts.

Current Overload Protection:

If the inverter is overloaded, it will shut down to protect itself. The meter will flash (OLP) to indicate Overload Protect. To restore normal operation, disconnect the excessive load and turn the unit off and on again using the Power Button.

Short Circuit Protection:

If the AC output of the inverter is short circuited for one second or more,

it will shut down to protect itself. The meter will flash (OPP) to indicate Short Circuit Protect and an alarm will sound. To restore normal operation, disconnect the short circuit and turn the unit Off and On again using the Power Button.
