Operation
From the Power screen, you can control and monitor the
following functions:
• Inverter Power: Use the toggle button to turn the
inverter ON or OFF. The Operating Mode indicator
displays the operating mode of the inverter:
– Pass Thru indicates the inverter is bypassed, when
the shore power is hooked up.
– Inverting indicates the inverter is Enabled.
– Waiting to Invert indicates the inverter is Enabled but
is not yet actually producing AC power.
– Load Sensing indicates the inverter is waiting for the
load.
The following modes display on the inverter LCD
screen. Refer to the Xantrex Inverter Manual for more
information.
– Battery mode indicates that the inverter is running
and supplying AC power to the loads from battery.
– Grid mode indicates that the inverter is charging the
battery with AC voltage from shore power, but it is
bypassing the inverter supply of AC power to the
loads directly from the shore power.
– Off appears when the inverter is either off, or it is in
an error, fault, or warning state.
If the inverter is in an error, fault, or warning state,
I
the error code will be indicated on the inverter
LCD screen in the inverter compartment.
• Battery: These indicators provide voltage readings for
the chassis (engine) and house (coach) batteries,
respectively.
• Load Wattage (Inverter Load Wattage): This
indicator displays the power consumed by the load
from the inverter when in battery mode.

• Charger Stage: This indicator shows the charger
status of the onboard charger, as described in the
following table:
Number Status Description
0 Disabled The charger is disabled.
1 Not The charger is enabled, but it is not
Charging charging (typically due to a lack of
AC power).
2 Bulk The charger is in the initial stage of
the three-stage charging cycle.
3 Absorption The charger is in the second stage of
the three-stage charging cycle.
4 Over The charger is over-charging the
Charge batteries (this status is rare).
5 Equalize The charger is equalizing the
batteries.
6 Float The charger is in the third stage of
the three-stage charging cycle.
7 Constant The charger is providing constant
Voltage voltage charging (typically used
during single-stage charging cycles).
• Charger Current: This indicator shows the current
that the charger is drawing from shore power.
• AC Input Current: This indicator shows the input
current being drawn from shore power.
• AC Load Current: This indicator shows the current
that the loads are drawing directly from shore power,
bypassing the inverter.
• Generator: These options control both input and
output, so you can monitor and control the onboard
generator:
– The hours indicator shows the number of hours that
the generator has run.
