Operation
To test (or reset) the GFCI protection:
1. Press the unit’s power switch to turn the inverter On.
2. Plug a test lamp into the AC outlet.
3. Push the TEST button.
Note: The RESET button should pop out and the power should
turn Off (the lamp should go out). If the lamp remains lit, or if
the RESET button does not pop out, the GFCI may not be
functioning.
If the GFCI trips by itself at any time, reset it and perform the
preceding test.

and an error code is displayed on the digital display underneath
the LED.
Digital Display

the input voltage (in volts) and the output power (in kilowatts).
• Under error or alarm conditions, the digital display shows an
error code and the Red LED turns on.
