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
Button (Green) To turn the power ON or OFF, press and hold the green ON/OFF Power
Button for approximately 1 second.
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
Display If a fault occurs, the error code will immediately be displayed as a
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
LED The AC Indicator LED indicates that AC power is available at all outputs.
If AC power is available, this LED will illuminate whether or not the
PowerHub 1800 inverter is turned on.
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.
