ON/OFF Switch
The ON/OFF Switch is a momentary push button switch that
duplicates the ON/OFF switch on the inverter. This switch also allows
additional changes to be made while in Invert or Charge Mode.
When the inverter is
fi
rst connected to the batteries, the inverter
and remote go through an internal 10 seconds start-up test. After
this test is completed, the ON/OFF switch can be pressed to turn
on the inverter. Once the inverter has been turned on, momentarily
pressing the ON/OFF switch alternately turns the inverter On/
Standby and Off.
On models with the Search Mode function, the ON/OFF switch can
be used to enable or disable the Search Mode. While in the INVERT
mode, pressing and holding this switch for three seconds will allow
the Search Mode to alternate between Disabled (inverter always
on – indicated by the INVERT LED always on) and 5W (the inverter
is looking for at least a 5 watt load to turn on and start inverting
– indicated by the INVERT LED blinking once a second).
On models with the Battery Charger feature, this switch can also
be used to disable the charger (Charger Standby) so that all
the incoming power can be used exclusively for the AC loads. To
turn the charger off, press and hold the ON/OFF switch for three
seconds (you must be in the Charge Mode). When this happens,
the charging indicators (BULK, ABSORB, and FLOAT) will go off. To
turn the charger back on, press and hold the ON/OFF switch for
three seconds again. When the charger is again enabled, one of the
charging indicators will come on to show the current charge stage.
WARNING:
When any external AC power is passing
through the inverter and present on the output, pressing
the ON/OFF switch will not remove this AC power from
the inverter’s output.

Operation
The
MM-R/MM-RC remote controls
have an ON/OFF switch that
performs the sa
me function as the ON/OFF power switch on the
front of the inverter. This remote control also has LED indicators to
show the current operating mode of the inverter and charger (MM-
RC only), and to help troubleshoot your system should a fault occur.
