REMOTE CONTROL PANEL

An optional remote control panel is available which offers several features not found on the unit. The remote control panel provides LED bargraphs which show system status, battery voltage, and DC Amps in both inverter and charge modes. These bargraphs can also display dip switch posi- tions and shut down conditions.

Remote Power Switch

The switch on the remote is used to control the inverter and can also be used to control the battery charger function. When a remote control is used, the power switch on the inverter should be left in the OFF position.

System Status LEDs

These 4 LEDs monitor the system as described in the table on page 10.

DC Volts Bargraph

These LEDs indicate battery voltage as measured inside the unit. Each LED seg- ment indicates .5 Volts. If an overload occurs and the unit shuts down, the DC

Volts bargraph will stop indicating battery voltage and display the dip switch settings. It will return to indicating battery voltage only after the unit has been reset.

DC Amps Bargraph

These LEDs approximate DC input current in inverter mode and DC output current in battery charger mode. Two ranges are used -- below 50 Amps each segment represents a 10 Amp increment, above 50 Amps each segment represents a 20 Amp increment. Above 130 Amps, a flashing LED segment indicates the value displayed plus 100 Amps (flashing 50 LED is equal to 50 + 100 or 150 Amps DC).

If a shutdown occurs, the DC Amps bargraph will stop indicating DC Amps and will indicate the type of problem . Each LED segment indicates a different problem as described in the troubleshooting section on page 34.
