Troubleshooting

Unit does not turn on

Check if the DC power source (battery) is connected and has sufficient voltage. Verify AC input power is present.

Overload alarm is active

Reduce the load connected to the inverter. Ensure the total connected wattage does not exceed the unit's 5000W capacity.

Battery not charging

Verify that the AC input is connected and functional. Check the battery charging current settings on the LCD and ensure they are configured correctly. Confirm battery connections are secure.

Inverter emits a continuous beep

This usually indicates a fault. Check the LCD display for specific error codes and consult the user manual for troubleshooting steps related to the displayed code. Common causes include overload, low battery voltage, or internal fault.

Poor performance or frequent shutdowns

Ensure the unit is operating within its specified temperature range. Check for adequate ventilation and clean any dust from the vents. Verify that the input voltage is within the acceptable range.
