NOTE: An appliance or load may have a short if it causes a
circuit breaker to trip after reconnection. DO NOT continue
to reset breaker. Have the problem corrected before resuming
operation.
If use of the generator is infrequent, “exercise” the generator once a month
by operating it at approximately half the maximum rated output for two hours.
This “exercise” will help promote better starting, more reliable operation and
longer engine life. This procedure drives off moisture, relubricates the internal
engine parts and replaces the old stale fuel with a fresh supply. It also promotes
removing oxides from the electrical switches and contacts.
Use the inverter when shore power is not available and the generator
is not going to be used as the secondary AC power source option. To turn
the inverter on or off, momentarily depress the inverter ON/OFF button
on the RC7GS remote. This will supply silent AC power to most recepta-
cles, the television and microwave. It is important to remember that use
of the inverter will greatly increase house battery power consumption.
Turn off the inverter when not in use to conserve house battery power.
The inverter is programmable with many features. The RC7GS
remote control is used to change or add features and set variable parame-
ters. Inverter remote may also be used to start and stop the generator.
Some of the features available are:
• Automatic generator start.
• Fully adjustable battery charge rates.
• Adjustable fuel gauge cut-out.
• Adjustable charging curves for different battery types.
• Adjustable power sharing.
• Meters Menu.
The remote control liquid crystal display (LCD) and light emitting diode
(LED) lights are used for operation status conditions. The LED lights give
inverter status, charge status, battery condition and error indications at a glance.
The LCD screen displays charging cycle status, various meter readings, auto-
matic generator operation status, programming field and error messages. The
inverter ON/OFF button turns the inverter on or off. This button can be used to
start or stop the generator. The up or down arrows are used to scroll up or down
through the operations field or meters field. The up arrow is used to toggle
between operations and meter fields. Pressing the up and down arrows simulta-
neously accesses the programming field. The settings button is used to set or
scroll through a particular programming field.
NOTE: The main switch on the inverter is to remain ON.
