Operation

Operating Mode LEDs

Bypass LED

When AC power source is available, the PowerHub 1800 will pass the

 

power through to the loads and will also keep the battery bank charged

 

and usable. The Bypass LED will illuminate when the unit is in this mode.

 

 

WARNING: Shock Hazard

 

 

The ON/OFF Button controls the output of the inverter 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

 

 

outlet 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 power is available at the front four outlets.

 

 

 

 

 

On initial power up or if transferring from Inverter Mode back to Bypass

 

 

Mode, the PowerHub takes approximately 20 seconds to identify if an AC

 

 

source is available and stable. If the AC source is within the acceptable

 

 

voltage range, the PowerHub will automatically enter Bypass Mode.

 

 

During this time, the Bypass Mode LED will flash and power will still be

 

 

provided by the inverter. When the AC source has been qualified, the

 

 

Bypass Mode LED will stop flashing and illuminates solid and the loads

 

 

will be powered by the AC source.

Inverter LED

If the PowerHub is on with AC present and the AC source fails, the

 

 

PowerHub 1800 automatically switches to Inverter Mode within 40

 

 

milliseconds. When in Inverter mode, the inverter is using the power

 

 

stored in the battery bank to provide power to the loads and the Inverter

 

 

LED will illuminate.

Status LEDs

 

Input LEDs

 

Select Button

Pressing the red Select Button cycles the output on the display through the

(Red)

available Input/Output power levels.

 

 

If the Select button is not pushed within 10 seconds, the display will

 

 

automatically return to the Net Power value.

Wind LED

When the Select Button is pressed until the Wind LED is illuminated, the

 

 

Wind Input wattage levels are displayed in kilowatts. These values are the

 

 

inputs on the 80 A DC input terminals.
