3. Setup
3.1 Unpacking and Inspection
Carefully remove the inverter and all accessories from the packaging. Inspect for any damage during transit. The package should include the inverter unit, battery cables, LCD remote control, and a small wrench.
Figure 3.1: Inverter Dimensions and Included Accessories. The image shows the inverter's measurements (18.30in x 7.91in x 4.44in) and accessories including 80cm battery cables, remote control, and a wrench.
3.2 Mounting the Inverter
Choose a dry, well-ventilated location for mounting the inverter. Ensure there is sufficient space around the unit for airflow, especially near the cooling fans. Mount the inverter securely using appropriate fasteners.
3.3 Connecting to a 12V DC Battery
- Ensure the inverter is switched OFF.
- Connect the red battery cable to the positive (+) terminal of the inverter and the positive (+) terminal of the 12V battery.
- Connect the black battery cable to the negative (-) terminal of the inverter and the negative (-) terminal of the 12V battery.
- Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent loose contacts and sparks.
3.4 Grounding the Inverter
For safety, the inverter must be properly grounded. Connect a grounding wire from the inverter's grounding terminal to a reliable earth ground point (e.g., vehicle chassis, dedicated ground rod).
3.5 Connecting the LCD Remote Control
Plug the remote control cable into the designated remote control port on the inverter. This allows for convenient monitoring and control.

3.6 Adjusting Input Voltage (Low Voltage Shutdown)
The inverter features an adjustable low voltage shutdown threshold to protect your battery. This adjustment must be made when the inverter is OFF.
- Locate the input voltage selection switches on the inverter.
- Refer to the table below and the image to select the appropriate low voltage shutdown setting for your battery type (e.g., Lithium, GEL, SLA).
- Use a small tool to set the switches to the desired position.
Figure 3.3: Selectable Input Voltage Settings. This diagram illustrates the switch settings (1 and 2) for different low voltage shutdown thresholds (9.5V, 10V, 10.5V, 11V) and lists compatible battery types.
| Switch 1 | Switch 2 | Low Voltage Shutdown |
|---|---|---|
| OFF | OFF | 9.5V |
| OFF | ON | 10V |
| ON | OFF | 10.5V |
| ON | ON | 11V |
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Powering On/Off
- After all connections are secure, switch the inverter's main ON/OFF switch to the 'ON' position.
- The LCD remote control will illuminate, displaying current operating parameters.
- To turn off the inverter, switch the main ON/OFF switch to the 'OFF' position.
4.2 Monitoring with the LCD Remote Control
The LCD remote control provides real-time information about the inverter's status:
- Battery Capacity: Indicates the remaining charge of your 12V battery.
- DC Input Voltage: Shows the current voltage from your battery.
- AC Output Voltage: Displays the 230V AC output voltage.
- Power in Watts: Shows the current power consumption of connected devices.
- Error Indicators: Flashing symbols will alert you to issues such as high voltage, low voltage, overload, short circuit, or overheat.
4.3 Connecting AC and USB Devices
Once the inverter is powered on, you can connect your devices:
- Plug 230V AC appliances into the two AC outlets.
- Connect USB-powered devices to the 5V/3.1A USB port.
- Connect Type-C compatible devices to the 30W Type-C port.
- Ensure the total power draw of all connected devices does not exceed 4000W.
