PART 3: OPERATION IN INVERTER MODE
Once the inverter•charger is installed, you can operate it in Inverter mode.

To operate in Inverter mode
1. Place inverter•charger’s ON/OFF/REM switch in the ON position.
2. Set the INVERTER switch to ENABLE.
3. If AC is present, the STANDBY LED will come on. If AC is present,
remove it and the inverter will come on.
Once the INVERTING LED is on, the inverter•charger is ready to deliver
AC power to the loads.
Load Sensing Mode
The PROsine’s Load Sensing mode reduces power consumption in order to
conserve battery capacity.
When the inverter is ENABLED, the inverter•charger can be configured to
search for an acceptable AC load. (It does this when you Enable Load Sensing
on the “Configure PROsine—Basic Menu” and set Load Sensing parameters
on the “Configure PROsine—Advanced Menu”.) The unit will “sleep” if it
doesn’t detect a load that meets the Load Sense parameters. This “sleep” mode
shuts off much of the inverter•charger’s power control circuitry and thereby
reduces the standby current draw considerably. When an acceptable load is
detected, full output power is available.
In Load Sense mode, the INVERTING LED flashes approximately once a
second.
Operating Limits for Inverter Operation
Power Output
The continuous output rating for the PROsine 2.0 is 2000 watts or 17 amps @
120Vac; surge to 4.5kW. It can deliver this power in an ambient (surrounding)
temperature that is up to 40°C. Above this temperature, you must reduce the
demand or the unit may shut down. (See the chart on page 99 for details.)
