Inverter Control Panel

 

 

User Controls and Display

 

 

The following provides a detailed description of the user controls and

 

 

LED display function. For operating instructions, see “Basic Operation”

 

 

on page 2–6.

On/Off Power

To turn the power ON or OFF, press and hold the green ON/OFF Power

Button (Green)

Button for approximately 1 second.

 

 

 

 

 

WARNING: Shock Hazard

 

 

The ON/OFF Button controls the output of the inverter/charger and the displays

 

 

only. It does not control or turn off the AC output in Bypass Mode. Therefore, if

 

 

any power is available to the unit, the unit will function in Bypass Mode and

 

 

power will be available at all outlets or output terminals even if the PowerHub is

 

 

turned OFF. The blue AC Indicator LED between the top two AC outlets on the

 

 

front panel will illuminate if AC power is available at any of the outlets.

 

 

 

LED Display

The LED Display consists of a 4-digit numerical display (e.g., 8.8.8.8.).

 

 

(Note: 1.0 kW = 1000 watts)

 

 

Negative numbers (e.g., 1.00) represent Output Power in kilowatts

 

 

 

(kW). This number represents the power being removed from the

 

 

 

batteries to power the loads. This can only occur when displaying Net

 

 

 

Power using the Select button while in Inverter Mode.

 

 

Positive numbers (e.g., 0.56) represent Input Power in kilowatts.

 

 

 

This number represents the power being used to charge the batteries

 

 

 

and power the loads.

 

 

• Battery Level information is displayed in volts DC. The Battery

 

 

 

Level LED will illuminate when this value is being displayed.

 

 

 

(e.g., 12.8)

 

 

• AC charger information is displayed in kilowatts. This value indicates

 

 

 

the amount of power available to charge the batteries. The AC LED

 

 

 

will illuminate when this value is being displayed. This value

 

 

 

indicates the amount of power being used to charge the batteries.

 

 

The Display by default will display the Net Power value.

Fault Condition

If a fault occurs, the error code will immediately be displayed as a

Display

flashing, 3-digit alpha/numeric code (e.g., E01). An audible beep will

 

 

sound to draw attention to the fault condition.

 

 

For a complete list of Error Codes, see Chapter 3, “How to Troubleshoot

 

 

the PowerHub 1800”).

AC Indicator

The AC Indicator LED indicates that AC power is available at all outputs.

LED

If AC power is available, this LED will illuminate whether or not the

 

 

PowerHub 1800 inverter is turned on.
