Feature Identification
Identify the premium features on your specific model and quickly locate instructions on how to maximize their use.
Configuration DIP Switches: optimize Inverter/Charger
operation depending on your application. See Configuration
section for setting instructions.
Operating Mode Switch: controls Inverter/Charger operation.
The "AUTO/REMOTE" setting ensures your equipment
receives constant, uninterrupted AC power. It also enables the
Inverter/Charger to be remotely monitored and controlled with
an optional remote module (Trip Lite model APSRM4, sold sep-
arately). The "CHARGE ONLY" setting allows your batteries to
return to full charge faster by turning the inverter off which halts
battery discharging. The "DC OFF" setting de-energizes the unit
and connects AC OUT to AC IN. See Operation section for set-
ting instructions.
"LINE", "INVERT", "LOAD" LEDs: show whether the
Inverter/Charger is operating from AC line power or DC battery
power. It also warns you if the connected equipment load is too
high. See Operation section for instructions on reading the indi-
cator lights.
"BATT VOLTAGE" LEDs: these three lights will turn ON in
several sequences to show approximate battery level. See
Operation section for instructions on reading the indicator lights.
DC Power Terminals: connect to your battery terminals. See
Battery Connection section for instructions.
Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) AC Receptacles (not on
hardwire models): allow you to connect equipment that would
normally be plugged into a utility outlet. They feature ground
fault interrupter switches that trip if there is excessive current
on the ground safety wire.
AC Input Cord (not on hardwire models): connects the
Inverter/Charger to any source of utility- or generator-supplied
AC power. See AC Input/Output Connection section for instructions.
Hardwire AC Input/Output Terminals (not on corded
models): securely connect the Inverter/Charger to vehicle or
facility electrical system input and recommended GFCI receptacle
output. See AC Input/Output Connection section for instructions.
Resettable Circuit Breakers: protect your Inverter/Charger
against damage due to overload or charger failure. See
Operation section for resetting instructions.
Remote Control Module Connector: allows remote monitoring
and control with an optional module (Tripp Lite model
APSRM4, sold separately or included with select models). See
remote module owner’s manual for connection instructions.
Battery Charge Conserver (Load Sense) Dial: conserves bat-
tery power by setting the low-load level at which the
Inverter/Charger’s inverter automatically shuts off. See
Configuration section for setting instructions.
Main Ground Lug: properly grounds the Inverter/Charger to
vehicle grounding system or to earth ground. See Configuration
section for instructions.
Multi-Speed Cooling Fan: quiet, efficient fan prolongs equipment
service life.
Hardwire AC Input/Output Cover Plate
Battery Temperature Sensing Connector: prolongs battery life by
adjusting charge based on battery temperature. Use with cable
(included on select models). See Configuration section for details.
Automatic Generator Start Connector: automatically cycles gen-
erator based on battery voltage (included on select models). Use
with user-supplied cable. See Configuration section for details.
Ignition Interlock Control Jack (select models only): used to con-
nect the inverter/charger to the vehicle ignition switch. Disables AC
power outlet when the vehicle ignition switch is placed in the
“Engine Run” position. See p. 8 for connection instructions.
