PROBLEM : 'Battery voltage too low or too high' error keeps on appearing
Possible cause :
Poor battery condition
Poor connection or inadequate wiring
between battery and inverter, resulting in
too much voltage drop
General failure in your electrical system (in
case of no direct battery connection)
PROBLEM : 'Overloaded or shorted output' error keeps on appearing
Possible cause :
Inverter is overloaded
Connected equipment features a bad power
factor (cosϕ at sinusoidal currents)
Connected equipment causes a short circuit
at the inverter's output
Connected equipment produces a too large
inrush current
PROBLEM : 'Inverter temperature too high. Cooling down' error keeps on
appearing
Possible cause :
Airflow around the inverter is obstructed

Remedy :
Replace battery or charge it first
When extending the battery wires of the
inverter make sure you use the correct wire
gauge (≥ 1.5 times larger than the fixed
battery wires). It's not advisable to extend
the battery wires to more than 3 meters.
Check your electrical system or consult an
electrical engineer to check it for you
Remedy :
Make sure that the total power rating of the
connected equipment is lower than the
nominal inverter power rating.
reduce the required power consumption of
the load. Please note that for example most
computer loads feature a bad power factor,
which causes a reduction of the maximum
output power of the inverter by approx.
20%.
Make sure that the connected equipment is
not broken or malfunctioning. Check if the
AC power cord between the inverter and
the connected equipment is ok. Any
physical damage on the power cord can
produce a short circuit. Be careful in these
kind of situations!
Try to power-up connected equipment
successively, and not simultaneously. Or
connect the load first and then turn-on the
inverter. Otherwise stop using the
connected load, it's not suitable to drive it
with this inverter
Remedy :
Make sure there is at least 10 centimeters
of clearance around the inverter. Remove
any items placed on or over the inverter.
Keep the inverter away from direct sunlight
or heat producing equipment
