To change the inverter mode setting:

ON (“In1”) will put the inverter on standby. This means when shorepower is present, AC shorepower will pass through as AC output. And when shorepower is not available, the inverter function will take power from the battery and provide AC output power. When the inverter mode is ON, you can manually turn the inverter function ON or OFF by using the Power button. See “Operating in Inverter Mode” on page 4–4.

OFF (“In0”) will completely disable inverter function. This means when shorepower is present, AC shorepower will still pass through as AC output. However, when shorepower is not available, the inverter function remains disabled and therefore no AC output power. When the inverter mode is OFF, you cannot manually turn the inverter function ON or OFF by using the Power button.

1.Press and hold the Power button for five seconds.

2.Press the Power button once.

The LED screen will flash “In” intermittently.

3.Press the Select button once.

The LED screen will display the present (or most recent) inverter mode setting.

Example, “In1” for an inverter mode setting of ON or “In0” for an inverter mode setting of OFF.
