Resetting Your Inverter/Charger to Restore AC Power
Your Inverter/Charger may cease supplying AC power or DC charging power in order to protect itself from overload or to protect your
electrical system. To restore normal functioning:
Overload Reset: Switch operating mode switch to "DC OFF" and remove some of the connected electrical load (ie: turn off some of the
AC devices drawing power which may have caused the overload of the unit). Wait one minute, then switch operating mode switch back to
either "AUTO/REMOTE" or "CHARGE ONLY."
Output Circuit Breaker Reset: Alternatively, check output circuit breaker on the unit's front panel. If tripped, remove a portion of the
electrical load, wait one minute to allow components to cool, then reset the circuit breaker. See the Troubleshooting section for additional
possible reasons why AC output may be absent.
Configuration
Set Configuration DIP Switches
Using a small tool, set the Configuration DIP Switches (located on the front panel, see diagram) to optimize Inverter/Charger operation
depending on your application.

* Most of your connected appliances and equipment will perform adequately when your
Inverter/Charger's Low AC Voltage Input Point (DIP Switches #3 and #4 of Group A are set to
95V. However, if the unit frequently switches to battery power due to momentary low line
voltage swings that would have little effect on equipment operation, you may wish to adjust
these settings. By decreasing the Low AC Voltage Point, you will reduce the number of times
your unit switches to battery due to voltage swings.
