the cooling fan will turn on momentarily,

the transfer relay will switch, and

the temperature sensors will be checked for open or short circuit.

3.After the self-test the unit will start inverting.

4.Using a true RMS AC voltmeter, check the output voltage of the inverter. This voltage can be checked at either the AC terminal block or in the sub-panel (between the line and neutral). The voltage should be approximately 120 Vac/60Hz.

IMPORTANT: If the inverter is in Search Mode and a sufficient load is not available to bring the inverter up to full voltage, turn the Search Mode potentiometer fully counterclockwise to defeat the search function.

Testing in Charge Mode

1.Apply AC power to the inverter.

2.The inverter starts charging the batteries in the Bulk mode, indicated by the Charge Mode indicator light illuminating orange. It takes about 15 seconds for the unit to transition from invert mode to charge mode after the application of qualified AC.

3.Using a true RMS AC voltmeter, check the output voltage of the inverter. This voltage can be checked at either the AC terminal block or in the sub-panel (between the line and neutral). The voltage should be approximately 120 Vac/60Hz. This ensures the inverter/charger is delivering AC output in pass-through mode.

 

Installing the Inverter/Charger

4.

Switch the AC disconnect circuit breaker to OFF. The inverter will go

 

 

into invert mode (if a sufficient load is applied to the AC output while

 

 

in the search mode). The Invert Mode indicator light will illuminate

 

 

indicating the inverter is active. The voltage on the AC output of the

 

 

inverter will remain the same as above 120 Vac/60Hz (± 5%

 

 

maximum) except when the unit is set to be in search mode.

only.

5.

Reapply the AC power by switching the AC disconnect to ON. Allow

 

 

the batteries to fully recharge.

IMPORTANT: The unit will not use battery energy for AC output as long as

 

AC input (utility or generator) is available to the inverter.

 

Your installation is now complete. The inverter/charger is ready for use.
