Operating in Shore Power Mode

Operating in Shore Power Mode

Definition

Shore power (pass-through) refers to the AC input power from a utility

 

grid, generator, or external AC source.

Shore power mode

In shore power mode, the RS400 is connected to shore power and your

 

appliances are powered from the AC input power.

Transfer to invert

The transfer to inverter power will occur if shore power is present, but

mode

either the shore power voltage is too low (less than 85 volts AC) or too

 

high (greater than 140 volts AC). In this case, the transfer from shore

 

power to inverter power prevents damage to your appliances.

S400 Remote Switch

You cannot use the optional S400 Remote Switch to control the RS400 when it is operating in shore power mode.

Important: The RS400 transfers the appliances to shore power whenever shore power is connected, regardless of the position of the On/ Standby switches.

To operate in shore power mode:

1.Connect the RS400 to shore power.

The AC Input light on the RS400 illuminates. The On/Standby switch on both the S400 Remote Switch and the RS400 can be either On ( ) or in Standby () position.

2.Operate your appliances.
