The GPS6 protector allows for adjustable parameters to customize its protection thresholds. The front panel features a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and control buttons (SET, UP, DOWN) for navigation and adjustment.
To enter the setting mode:
- Long press the "SET" key for 5 seconds. The display will show the first parameter setting (e.g., P-1).
- Use the "UP" (▲) and "DOWN" (▼) keys to navigate through the parameters.
- To modify a parameter's value, press the "SET" key once to select it, then use "UP" (▲) and "DOWN" (▼) keys to change the value.
- Press "SET" again to confirm the new value and move to the next parameter, or wait a few seconds for it to automatically save and exit.

4. Operating Instructions
4.1. Normal Operation
Once correctly wired and powered on, the device will perform a self-check and then display real-time voltage, current, and accumulated kWh on its LCD. The "POWER" indicator will be lit, indicating normal operation.
The device is designed for automatic protection. If an over-voltage, under-voltage, or over-current condition is detected, the protector will automatically trip to disconnect the load and protect your electrical system. The corresponding indicator (AV for Over/Undervoltage, A for Overcurrent) will light up.
4.2. Auto Reconnect Function
The GPS6 series features an auto-reconnect function. After a fault condition clears and the set delay time (P-7) has passed, the device will automatically restore power to the load. This ensures continuous operation without manual intervention, provided the fault is no longer present.
4.3. Display Modes (P-11)
The device offers different display modes for viewing electrical parameters:
- Mode 1 (Standard): Shows default parameters (Voltage, Current, kWh).
- Mode 2 (Manual): Allows you to manually cycle through voltage (-U-), power (-P-), current (-A-), and frequency (-H-) by pressing the UP (▲) or DOWN (▼) buttons.
- Mode 3 (Automatic): Automatically cycles through voltage (-U-), power (-P-), current (-A-), and frequency (-H-) in sequence.
To change the display mode, navigate to parameter P-11 in the setup menu and select your desired mode.
5. Maintenance
The GEYA GPS6 protector is designed for long-term, reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, adhering to the following guidelines will help ensure its longevity and performance:
- Cleaning: Keep the device clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Environment: Ensure the device is installed in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, corrosive gases, and excessive moisture.
- Inspection: Periodically check the wiring connections to ensure they remain tight and free from corrosion.
- No User Serviceable Parts: The device contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the unit yourself. Unauthorized disassembly will void the warranty and may lead to electric shock or damage to the device.
6. Troubleshooting
This section provides guidance on common issues you might encounter with your GEYA GPS6 protector.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device trips, AV or A indicator lights up. | Over-voltage, under-voltage, or over-current condition detected. | Check the input voltage and load current. Ensure they are within the set parameters. The device should auto-reconnect once the fault clears. |
| Device does not auto-reconnect after fault clears. | Auto-reconnect delay (P-7) is still counting, or a persistent fault. | Wait for the set auto-reconnect delay time. If it still doesn't reconnect, check for persistent fault conditions. Verify P-7 setting. |
| Display shows incorrect readings. | Calibration error or internal fault. | Check parameters P-9 (Voltage Calibration) and P-10 (Current Calibration). If issues persist, contact support. |
| Cannot access advanced settings (e.g., after changing lock parameter). | Password protection is active. | The initial password for P-8 is 112. If you changed it and forgot, you may need to restore it to the initial password (112) to unlock. |
| Device not powering on. | No power supply or incorrect wiring. | Verify power supply to the device and check all wiring connections according to the diagram. |
7. User Tips
- Always ensure proper wiring by a qualified electrician to prevent damage and ensure safety.
- Regularly monitor the voltage, current, and kWh readings on the LCD to understand your power consumption patterns and detect any anomalies early.
- Familiarize yourself with the adjustable parameters (P-1 to P-15) to customize the protection levels according to your specific electrical system requirements.
- In case of frequent tripping, investigate the root cause of the electrical fault rather than simply resetting the device.
