Solar e Power
soft start function that protects the Inverter circuitry from a power surge commonly present when
starting heavy loads. This function may take up to 3 seconds for the Inverter power light to turn on.
Converting DC battery power to AC generates heat. To minimize heat buildup and possible thermal
shutdown, remove obstacles blocking or hindering airflow between the intake and exhaust sides of
the Solar e Power Case. Ambient temperatures above 25 °C will reduce the Inverter's ability to cool
effectively, thus affecting operating times. Leave the case open during Inverter operation.
This Inverter produces Modified Sine Wave (MSW) AC. The waveform differences can be seen
below. Both waveforms have the same electrical energy, however some average reading AC
voltmeters can not properly read MSW. Readings on a non-TRUE RMS meter will display up to 30
volts lower voltage than sine wave AC.
Pure Sine Wave
CAUTION—Modified Sine Wave:
• Some rechargeable devices are equipped with a separate AC charger. These devices are
likely to operate properly with this Inverter. Rechargeable devices that have built-in chargers
(see device owner's manual) may not operate properly with this type of Inverter.
• Some motorized devices may operate at excessively elevated temperature when used with this
Inverter. During first use with this Inverter, check for excessive motor temperature. Abnormally
elevated temperature of the motor is an indication that they should not be used with this
Inverter.
To use the AC Power Inverter:
1. Turn on the Safety switch.
2. Turn on the LCD Display power.
3. Turn on the Inverter Power.
4. When the Inverter Power Indicator LED is green, the Inverter is operating normally.
5. Check the battery voltage level on the LCD panel.
6. Connect the AC appliance or appliances to the AC Outlet(s).
7. Turn on one AC appliance and observe the Power Indicator and FAULT LEDs.
• If the LED remains green, proceed to turn on the second appliance.
• If the Power Indicator LED continues to remain green, then both appliances are operating
properly.
• If the red FAULT LED light is lit, then remove all loads and restart the inverter
• If the Power indicator LED is not lit, then reduce the AC load. If the Inverter is still not
operating, refer to the Troubleshooting table at the end of this User's Manual.
