Your Inverter/Charger may cease supplying AC power or DC charg-

electrical system. To restore normal functioning:

Overload Reset: Switch operating mode switch to “OFF” and

 

 

 

 

 

 

remove some of the connected electrical load (ie: turn off some of

 

 

 

the AC devices drawing power which may have caused the overload

 

 

 

of the unit). Wait one minute, then switch operating mode switch

*If all three lights remain on, an internal fault may exist. Turn off and disconnect the unit. Then, call Tripp Lite at (773) 869-1234 for assistance.

Output Circuit Breaker Reset: Alternatively, check output circuit breaker(s) on the unit's front panel. If tripped, remove some of the elec- trical load, then wait one minute to allow components to cool before resetting the circuit breaker. See Troubleshooting for other possible reasons AC output may be absent.

Configuration

Set Configuration DIP Switches

Using a small tool, set the Configuration DIP Switches (located on the front panel, see diagram) to optimize Inverter/Charger operation depending on your application. RV612UL and RV612ULH models include one set of four DIP Switches. All other models include an additional set of four DIP switches to configure additional operational functions. Refer to the appropriate section to review the instructions for your spe- cific model.

Group A DIP Switches (All Models)

Using a small tool, configure your Inverter/Charger by setting the four Group A DIP Switches (located on the front panel of your unit; see diagram) as follows:

A1 Select Battery Type—REQUIRED

(All models)

CAUTION: The Battery Type DIP Switch setting must match the type of batteries you connect, or your batteries may be degraded or damaged over an extended period of time. See “Battery Selection,” p. 10 for more information.

*Most of your connected appliances and equipment will perform adequately when your Inverter/Charger’s High AC Input Voltage Point (DIP Switch #2 of Group A) is set to 135V and its Low AC Voltage Input Point (DIP Switches #3 and #4 of Group A or DIP Switch #3 for 612 models) are set to 95V. However, if the unit frequently switches to battery power due to momentary high/low line voltage swings that would have little effect on equipment operation, you may wish to adjust these settings. By increasing the High AC Voltage Point and/or decreasing the Low AC Voltage Point, you will reduce the number of times your unit switches to battery due to voltage swings.
