5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Turning On/Off
Press and hold the Main Switch button for a few seconds to turn the unit on or off. The LCD display will illuminate upon activation.
5.2. Connecting Devices
The F7200 offers various output options:
- AC Outlets: Connect your AC-powered devices to the 4 AC output sockets. Ensure the AC switch is turned on. The total maximum output is 7200W.
- USB Ports: Connect USB-A and USB-C devices to the respective ports. Turn on the USB switch.
- Other DC Outputs: Utilize the specific DC outputs for compatible devices.
For whole-home power, the F7200 can provide a maximum output of 7200W. This can be achieved by using two groups of 3600W AC outlets or by connecting the F7200 to your home's electrical panel via wiring terminals.

5.3. Charging the F7200
The F7200 supports multiple charging methods:
- AC Charging: Connect the AC charging cable to the AC input port and a wall outlet.
- Solar Charging: Connect solar panels to the High Voltage PV Input or Low Voltage PV Input using the appropriate cables (e.g., MC4 to XT90). The F7200 intelligently adjusts photovoltaic-AC input for optimal charging.
Image: Fast charging methods, showing combined AC and PV input for maximum efficiency. Example charging times: AC+PV high voltage+PV low voltage (5200W ≈ 1.5h), AC+PV high voltage (4000W ≈ 1.7h), AC+PV low voltage (4200W ≈ 1.9h). Note: Combined high voltage solar and AC charging input power is limited to 2000W when the battery exceeds 85%.
