5 Operating the Digital Inverter
This section explains how to operate the Digital Inverter most
efficiently.
Operating Conditions and Guidelines
This section describes normal operation as well as conditions that
trigger an alarm or automatically shut down the Digital Inverter.
Normal Operation When you connect the inverter to the vehicle’s
lighter socket or directly to a 12 V battery and turn on the unit, the
digital display will show input voltage, the input voltage
LED
illuminates and AC power is available at the outlets. You can now plug
in your AC products and turn them on one at a time.
Low Battery Alarm and Shutdown As the battery discharges, its
voltage decreases. When the Digital Inverter senses that the voltage at
its DC input has dropped to 11.0 V, it sounds an alarm, giving you time
to shut down sensitive loads such as computers. If you ignore the alarm,
and the DC input voltage drops below 10.5 V, the inverter shuts down
all loads to save the battery from further discharge. The under-voltage
error code ‘E01’ will show on the digital display.
