OPERATION

WARNING:

RISK OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

 For MW 1210, MW 1215: Do not plug surge-protected power bars into the unit’s 120 VAC

outlets. The surge protected components on the surge-protected power bar may not like the
modified sine wave output generate by the inverter.

 Do not connect an AC power source like utility power or generator to the unit 120 VAC outlets.

Turn ON and OFF the 120 VAC and USB

Press and hold the “Power/Select” button for 1 second until a beep is sounded. Display will
show the measured battery voltage and output power alternatively. Status LED will turn
green. Both 5V USB and 120 VAC are available.

Press “Power/Select” button to turn unit off.

Remote ON /OFF (Optional)

If optional remote is used, the Remote ON/OFF momentary switch is connected in parallel
with the “Power/Select” button on the unit. Same procedure applies to ON and OFF the unit.

Understanding the Display & Status LED

Display:

’12.5’

Display shows measured battery voltage

‘0.80’ Display shows total output AC power in kW (800W as shown)

‘E01’

Display shows error or warning code. See trouble shooting section in details

Status LED:
Green: Unit operation is normal

Amber: Warning is detected. Unit will shutdown at any time. Please check error code to

troubleshoot the unit.

Red:

Error is detected and unit has shutdown. Please check error code to troubleshoot
the unit.

Understanding the Error Code

Code Condition

Corrective

Action

E01

Unit has sensed input under voltage
and has shutdown

Recharge battery immediately and
restart unit

E02

Unit has sensed input over voltage
and has shutdown

Check battery voltage or if any external
charger is connected to the battery bank

E03

Unit output has sensed overload or
short circuit and was shutdown

Check load connected to the output.
Reduce load and restart the unit

E04

Unit has sensed internal
temperature was high and has
shutdown

Turn unit off and wait for 15 minutes
before restarting. Check if any object
has blocked the air flow of the unit

E05

Unit has sensed input voltage is low
and warning occurs

Recharge battery as unit will shutdown
shortly

E06

Unit has sensed load connected is
close to overload shutdown limit
(Not applicable for MW1210,
MW1215)

Reduce load

E07

Unit has sensed internal
temperature is high and is close to
thermal shutdown limit

Reduce load and check if any ventilation
of the unit is blocked

AC Load on Power Inverter
Although the Power Inverter can provide high surge power up to two times the rated output power,
some appliances may still trigger on the inverter protection system. A higher power inverter is
required for those appliances.
For MW 1210, 1215 modified sinewave inverter, some appliances like speed controllers found in
some fans, power tools and some power tools’ AC charger may not like the modified sine wave
