SIGNALS AND INTERFACING

here are two DB-9, subminiature, female
connectors. These are provided for
communications links to a computer or
sophisticated monitoring device.

SIGNAL provides open collector type contact
closures that typically signal Utility Interrupt, Low
Battery and Inverter Active conditions. A system
shutdown feature is also available on this port. By
shorting pin 6 to pin 7 will cause the system to

shutdown in battery mode. This conserves the
battery life once an orderly shutdown has been
accomplished. The system may be configured to
shutdown by applying a +5 to +12V signal across
the appropriate pins. Contact the factory for
configuration details.
RS232 is a true communications signal port.
Below is the pin out of the two connectors with their
