GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 2. 3. Insert DC inverter cables (not included) to the power input terminals on the rear panel of the power inverter. The red terminal is positive (+) and black terminal is negative (-). Connect the cables into the terminals and tighten the terminal screw to clamp the wires securely. Connect the cable from the negative terminal of the inverter to the negative terminal of the battery. Make a secure connection.
GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 4.3 Hard Wire (GP-SW3000 and GP-SW2000) Ensure the inverter is turned off if connecting the Hard Wire option. The GP-SW3000 and GP-SW2000 AC output may be hard wired into the inverter. Remove the four screws that surround the AC outlet and strain relief clamp to reveal a two-connection terminal strip. Feed a user-supplied power cable through the strain relief clamp, tighten the clamp, and make the connections.
GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ will vary depending on where the inverter is installed. In a vehicle, connect the chassis ground to the chassis of the vehicle. In a boat, connect the chassis ground lug to the boat's grounding system. In a fixed location, connect the chassis ground lug to an earth ground. The neutral (common) conductor of the inverter AC output circuit is connected (bonded) to the chassis ground inside the inverter.
GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 5.2 Input Level (battery voltage) indicator The GP-SW600, GP-SW1000, GP-SW2000 and GP-SW3000 Input Level LED changes colour from green to yellow to red as battery voltage decreases from a resting voltage of 12.7 V - 10.5 V (12 V) or 25.4 V – 21V (24 V). The Input Level LED changes colour from green to yellow to red as battery voltage increases from a resting voltage of 12.7V – 15.0 V (12 V) or 25.4 V – 30.0 V (24 V). 5.
GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ Over temperature protection Red LED blinking intermittently Over temperature protection indicates that the inverter has shut itself down because it has become overheated. The inverter may overheat if it has been operated at power levels above its rating or if it has been installed in a location which does not allow it to properly dissipate heat. The inverter automatically restarts once it has cooled down.
GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 115 W 245 W OFF ON ON 135 W 280 W ON ON ON To disable power saving, leave dip switches S1, S2 and S3 in the OFF or 0 position. 5.7 What is Power Saving? (GP-SW1000, GP-SW2000 and GP-SW3000) Power saving mode enables the inverter to be “on” and waiting for a load, yet draw very little power. When power saving is enabled and the inverter senses a load, it may take one second for the load to become active.
GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 6.0 Operating limits 6.1 Power output Some induction motors used in refrigerators, freezers, pumps, and other motoroperated equipment require very high surge currents to start. The inverter may not be able to start some of these motors even though their rated current draw is within the power rating of inverter.
GP-SW1000/2000/3000 ___________________________________________________________ 7.0 Troubleshooting 7.1 Common problems Television interference: Operation of the power inverter can interfere with television reception on some channels. If this situation occurs, the following steps may help to alleviate the problem: Make sure that the chassis ground lug on the back of the power inverter is solidly connected to the ground system of your vehicle, boat or home.
