Turning the Inverter Off Between Charges
The inverter draws less than 600 mA from the battery with the On/Off
switch turned on and no load connected, but left in this state the inverter
will eventually discharge the battery.
To prevent unnecessary battery discharge, turn the inverter off when you
are not using it.
Display Screen
You can monitor important status information on the LED (light emitting
diode) display screen.
To select which information the screen displays, press the Display
Function button. The VOLTAGE , CURRENT and AC POWER lights indicate
what information the screen is showing.
Battery Voltage
Indicator The BATTERY VOLTAGE INDICATOR indicates the DC voltage at the input
terminals of the inverter. At low input currents, this voltage is very close
to the battery voltage. At high input currents, this voltage is lower than the
battery voltage because of the voltage drop across the cable and DC
connections.
Battery Current
Indicator The BATTERY CURRENT INDICATOR displays the current draw from the
battery in amps. It will not indicate current draw from other loads
connected to the battery.
Output Power
Indicator The OUTPUT POWER INDICATOR indicates the AC output power in kW.
