Installation

Remote On/Off Switch

The Remote On/Off Switch allows you to turn On or Off the CobraMarinePower Inverters from a convenient location — up to 20 feet (6 meters) away — while the inverter is mounted out of reach and sight.

To Install Remote On/Off Switch:

Power On or Off

Operation

Turning Your Inverter On or Off

Be sure to have your power inverter properly installed before attempting to turn the unit On (see “Installation” page 6).

To Turn the Power Inverter On:

1. If a DC power supply is being used as the power source, switch it On.

Cut Out Template

Mark Location

Drill Pilot Holes

Cut Out Square

Fasten Switch Plate

Connect Cable

1.Select a location that is convenient for operation (and where the Remote On/Off Switch assembly and cable does not interfere with the driver or a passenger).

Be sure there is adequate clearance behind the panel before drilling or cutting.

2.Cut out the mounting template included with this manual on a separate card.

3.Position the template on the wall/surface where you want to install the Remote On/Off Switch.

4.Mark the location of the two screw holes and the square to be cut out for the switch board.

5.Create two pilot holes for the screws.

6.Cut out the square from the template to accommodate the switch board.

If cutting a square on the wall is not desirable, use bushings (not included) to raise the switch assembly so that switch board clears the wall.

7.Fasten the switch plate using the two screws (included).

8.Connect the cable (RJ-11 connector) to the inverter’s remote jack.

If more than 20 feet of cable is required, use a 1-to-1 female connector and a 4-wire conductor, phone extension cord with RJ-11 male connectors on each end to extend the cable.

50 feet of cable is maximum recommended.

2. On the left side panel, switch the On/Off Switch to On.

On/Off Switch to On

The inverter is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads. If several loads are to be operated by the inverter, turn them On separately, after the inverter has been turned On. This will ensure that the inverter does not have to deliver the starting currents required for all the loads at once.

To Turn the Power Inverter Off:

1. On the left side panel, switch the On/Off Switch to Off.
