Video 1: EDECOA Inverter Remote Controller Features and Internal Design
- Monitoring: The LCD screen displays input voltage, battery level, battery type, AC output voltage, output frequency, output wattage, ECO mode status, buzzer status, brightness level, and fault codes.
- Settings: Use the direction buttons to navigate and adjust parameters such as:
- Battery Type
- Output Voltage (e.g., 220V, 230V, 240V)
- Output Frequency (e.g., 50Hz)
- ECO Mode (On/Off)
- Alarm Buzzer (On/Off)
- LCD Brightness
- USB Charging: The remote controller has two 5V/2.1A USB ports for charging mobile phones and tablets.
6.3 ECO Mode
Figure 8: ECO Mode Power Saving
- ECO mode reduces no-load standby power consumption, extending battery life.
- In ECO mode, the inverter will intermittently start and stop. The output voltage will intermittently display 0 volts. This is normal behavior.
- ECO mode is not recommended for loads less than 15W.
- To activate/deactivate ECO mode, use the switch button on the inverter or the remote controller.
6.4 Bluetooth Connectivity and APP
Figure 9: EDECOA App Interface
Connect your mobile phone via Bluetooth to the EDECOA APP for real-time monitoring and parameter settings. The app also supports OTA firmware upgrades for the remote control and inverter.

7. Maintenance
- Regularly check all cable connections to ensure they are tight and free from corrosion.
- Keep the inverter clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry cloth for cleaning.
- Ensure the cooling fans are not obstructed and are operating correctly.
- Periodically check the battery voltage and condition.
- Do not attempt to repair the inverter yourself. Contact qualified service personnel for any issues.
8. Troubleshooting and Protection Functions
The inverter is equipped with multiple protection functions to ensure safe operation. When a protection is triggered, the buzzer will sound an alarm, and the remote controller may display a fault code.
Figure 11: Inverter Protection Indicators
- Overload Protection (5 Beeps): Occurs when the connected load exceeds the inverter's rated power. Reduce the load.
- Short Circuit Protection: Automatically shuts down the inverter in case of a short circuit. Remove the short circuit.
- Over Temperature Protection (4 Beeps): Activates when the internal temperature exceeds 65°C. Ensure proper ventilation and reduce load if necessary. The fans start at ≥45±5°C.
- Input Undervoltage Protection (2 Beeps): Shuts down when battery voltage drops below 10V±0.3V. Recharge or replace the battery.
- Input Overvoltage Protection (3 Beeps): Shuts down when battery voltage exceeds ≥16V. Check charging system.
- Output Overvoltage Protection: Protects against excessive output voltage.
- Abnormal Output Voltage Protection: Indicates an issue with the output voltage.
- Abnormal Remote Controller Connection: Indicates a problem with the RJ45 cable or remote controller.
Automatic Reset Function: After input high voltage or low voltage shutdown, when the input voltage returns to normal, the inverter will automatically restore the output voltage.
DC Input Abnormal Power Failure Reminder: If the indicator light flashes rapidly for 8 seconds, it signifies an abnormal DC input voltage. For lithium batteries, this often means the BMS (Battery Management System) has triggered protection, and the battery is not supplying power to the inverter.
9. User Tips
- Battery Sizing: Refer to the battery recommendation table to select an appropriate battery capacity for your power needs. For example, a 12V, 200AH battery is recommended for a 1500W device for approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes of running time. For a 2000W device, a 12V, 240AH battery is recommended for 1 hour and 3 minutes. For 24V systems, a 2500W device would need a 120AH battery for 1 hour and 3 minutes. Always match your battery capacity to your expected load and desired runtime.
Figure 12: Battery Recommendation Table
- ECO Mode Usage: While ECO mode saves power, be aware that the inverter's output will intermittently show 0V. This is normal and not a fault. Avoid using ECO mode for very low power loads (less than 15W).
- Remote Controller Issues: If the control module (remote controller) stops functioning, first check the RJ45 cable connection. If the issue persists, it might indicate a fault with the remote controller itself or the inverter's communication port.
