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

3-position rocker switch to “ON” to have your Inverter provide connected equipment with AC power by converting DC power from an attached battery. Set switch to “OFF” when not using connected equipment to prevent battery drain. Set switch to “REMOTE” to remotely monitor and control the Inverter with the use of an optional remote module.

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

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

4DC Power Terminals: connect to your battery terminals. See "Battery Connection" for connection instructions.

5Ground Fault Interrupter (GFCI) AC Receptacles: allow you to connect equipment that would normally be plugged into a utility outlet. Enhancing safety, they feature ground fault interrupter circuits that trip if there is a mismatch between the line current and the neutral current.

6Resettable Circuit Breaker(s): protect your Inverter against damage due to overload. PV3000GFCI model includes two separate 20-amp circuits. See "Operation" for resetting instructions.

7Remote Control Module Connector: allows remote monitoring and control with an optional module (Tripp Lite model APSRM4, sold separately or included with PV3000GFCI model). See remote module owner’s manual for connection instructions.

8Battery Charge Conserver (Load Sense) Dial: conserves battery power by setting the low-load level at which the Inverter automatically shuts off. See "Operation" for setting instructions.

9Multi-Speed Cooling Fan(s): quiet, efficient fans prolong equipment service life.

10Main Ground Lug: properly grounds the Inverter to vehicle grounding system or earth ground. See "Battery Connection" for connection instructions.

Low Battery Alarm/Shutdown (internal, not shown): automatically detects low voltage and shuts down Inverter to preserve vehicle battery.

Overload Alarm/Shutdown (internal, not shown): automatically detects wattage overload on Inverter outlets and shuts down Inverter as a protective measure.
