AC OUT PLUG | AC IN PLUG | MATE PLUG |
To connect cables to the Connector Plate sockets:
Position each cable plug over the appropriate jack. The cables are easy to tell apart, as the AC In plug has six pins, the AC Out plug only has five, and the MATE plug is smaller than the others.
Match each cable to its matching jack and fit the plugs into the jacks. If necessary, twist the plugs back and forth until they fit, and then push them in until they seat in place. (The plugs are keyed to fit only one way into the jacks, so they cannot be plugged in the wrong way.)
Once each plug is seated, turn the locking collar clockwise a
POWERING UP
Once all connections are established, it is safe to turn the power on, in the following order:
•Connect DC power, by closing the DC breaker or connecting the fuse. The MATE will power up. The Inverter will energize and begin delivering 120 volts to the output immediately. (The on/off function is controlled by the MATE. See the next section.)
•Connect the load panel by turning on the main AC breaker. Measure voltage at the disconnect to ensure that the Inverter is operating. Once this is confirmed, you should be able to run loads immediately.
•If an AC source is present, connect it by turning on the main AC input breaker. After a short delay, the Inverter will begin charging the battery.
