3. Setup

Proper setup ensures optimal performance and safety of your inverter.

  1. Mounting: Choose a secure, well-ventilated location for the inverter, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and moisture. Ensure sufficient space around the unit for airflow.
  2. Battery Connection:
    • Ensure your battery is a 12V DC battery and fully charged before connecting.
    • Use the provided battery cables (2 ft length, 5AWG) to connect the inverter to your 12V battery. Connect the positive (+) terminal of the inverter to the positive (+) terminal of the battery, and the negative (-) terminal of the inverter to the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
    • Tighten all connections securely to prevent loose contacts, which can cause overheating and power loss.

  3. Battery Type Selection: Locate the battery select switch on the inverter. Set it to either GEL or SLA (Sealed Lead Acid) according to your battery type. This ensures correct charging parameters when using the built-in solar charge controller.
  4. Solar Panel Connection (Optional): If using the integrated solar charge controller:
    • Connect a 12V solar panel (maximum 300W, 15-18V, open circuit voltage 22V) directly to the solar input terminals on the inverter.
    • The inverter's display will show the battery charging status. Note that the solar charge controller functions independently of the inverter's power conversion.
  5. Remote Control Connection: Connect the remote controller to the designated port on the inverter using the provided 15 ft cable. This allows for convenient ON/OFF control from a distance.

4. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to operate your GIANDEL Power Inverter:

  1. Powering On: Once all connections are secure, press the power switch on the inverter or use the remote control to turn the unit ON. The LED display will illuminate, showing input voltage, output voltage, and power consumption.
  2. Connecting AC Devices: Plug your 110V/120V AC devices into the dual AC outlets on the front panel. Ensure the total wattage of connected devices does not exceed the inverter's continuous power rating.
  3. Using the USB Port: The 2.4A USB port can be used to charge compatible USB-powered devices.
  4. Monitoring Performance: The LED display provides real-time information:
    • Input (V): Displays the DC input voltage from your battery.
    • Output (W): Shows the current power consumption of connected AC devices.
    • Battery Charging Status: Indicates the battery voltage when charging via the solar panel.
  5. Powering Off: When finished, disconnect all AC devices, then turn off the inverter using the power switch or remote control.
