Basic Installation Procedures
5.Remove the DC wiring cover to expose the ignition control terminals of the DC wiring compartment.
6.Unscrew and remove the red jumper wire, using a flat screw driver, in between terminal A and terminal Ignition Control. The jumper wire acts to disable ignition control and removing it will enable it.
7.Strip the vehicle’s ignition control wire and connect it to terminal
Ignition Control.

Power Module (For Freedom HF 1055 EMS and 1800 EMS)
In addition to having the ability to inhibit inverter operation in the absence of a vehicle’s (or vessel's) ignition control signal, the Freedom HF 1055 EMS and 1800 EMS models also have the ability to provide auxiliary DC power from the battery for small loads not exceeding 20 amps DC in total. Auxiliary DC power is provided when the same ignition control signal is present. This means that the vehicle’s ignition is turned to ON position. The unit internally connects the DC OUT terminal to the battery’s positive terminal.
To enable ignition control and to connect auxiliary DC power:
1. | Ensure that AC and DC power are both OFF. |
2. | Ensure the vehicle’s ignition is turned to OFF position. It is highly |
| recommended to remove battery power by disconnecting the vehicle's |
| battery cables. Refer to the vehicle’s Owner’s Guide for proper |
