Fault Finding
No indicators ON when power is first applied
When first connected, if the LD700-24 shows no indicators the battery
connections may be reversed. Check that the red battery wire (10) is
connected to the battery positive, and the black battery wire (11) is connected
to the battery negative. Remember there is a 3 second delay before power is
available after switch ON.
Inverter stays ON when no appliance is being used
This can be a common problem known as a “Phantom Load”, but can be
easily overcome. Some appliances will need to be switched off at the power
point as they may still represent a small load despite being switched off at the
appliance.
Check again to make sure that there are no appliances left ON, the
sequentially switch off appliances at the wall and by watching your night
light (as described in Handy Hint, check to see if the LD700-24 returns to
pulsing (SLEEP) mode after a 10 second delay. Once you have found the
offending appliance, increase the sensitivity of the “Demand Start” (see page
11) until the inverter turns OFF. Once this is done re check that small loads
will still bring the inverter ON when required.
Inverter shuts down during the middle of the day, and comes
back ON late in the afternoon
This is more than likely caused by high battery volts during peak charging
times from Solar Panels. Battery volts should never exceed 34 volts. If this is
the case, have your Solar Regulator checked.
