INSTALLATION
Unpacking and Inspection
Before installation, please inspect the unit. Be sure that nothing inside the package is damaged. You should
have received the following items inside of package:
The unit x 1
User manual x 1
Communication cable x 1
Software CD x 1
DC Fuse x 1 (only for 3KVA/5KVA models)
Ring terminal x 1 (only for 3KVA/5KVA models)
Strain relief plate x 2 (not for 1K/2K models)
Screws x 4 (not for 1K/2K models)
Preparation
Before connecting all wirings, please take off bottom cover by removing two screws as shown below.
5
Install the unit by screwing two screws. It’s recommended to use M4 or M5 screws.
Battery Connection
CAUTION: For safety operation and regulation compliance, it’s requested to install a separate DC over-current
protector or disconnect device between battery and inverter. It may not be requested to have a disconnect
device in some applications, however, it’s still requested to have over-current protection installed. Please refer
to typical amperage in below table as required fuse or breaker size.
6
4. Connect all battery packs as below chart. It’s suggested to connect at least 100Ah capacity battery for
1-3KVA model and at least 200Ah capacity battery for 5KVA model.
5. Insert the battery wires flatly into battery connectors of inverter and make sure the bolts are tightened with
torque of 2 Nm in clockwise direction. Make sure polarity at both the battery and the inverter/charge is
correctly connected and conductors are tightly screwed into the battery terminals.
Recommended tool: #2 Pozi Screwdriver
6. To firmly secure wire connection, you may fix the wires to strain relief with cable tie.
7
WARNING: Shock Hazard
Installation must be performed with care due to high battery voltage in series.
AC Input/Output Connection
CAUTION!! Before connecting to AC input power source, please install a separate AC breaker between
inverter and AC input power source. This will ensure the inverter can be securely disconnected during
maintenance and fully protected from over current of AC input. The recommended spec of AC breaker is 32A
for 3KVA/3KVA Plus and 50A for 5KVA.
CAUTION!! There are two terminal blocks with “IN” and “OUT” markings. Please do NOT mis-connect input
and output connectors.
WARNING:
Be sure that AC power source is disconnected before attempting to hardwire it to the unit.
8
4. Then, insert AC output wires according to polarities indicated on terminal block and tighten terminal screws.
Be sure to connect PE protective conductor ( ) first.

1KVA/2KVA 3KVA/5KVA
CAUTION: Appliances such as air conditioner are required at least 2~3 minutes to restart because it’s required
to have enough time to balance refrigerant gas inside of circuits. If a power shortage occurs and recovers in a
short time, it will cause damage to your connected appliances. To prevent this kind of damage, please check
manufacturer of air conditioner if it’s equipped with time-delay function before installation. Otherwise, this
inverter/charger will trig overload fault and cut off output to protect your appliance but sometimes it still causes
internal damage to the air conditioner.
PV Connection
CAUTION: Before connecting to PV modules, please install separately a DC circuit breaker between inverter
and PV modules.
WARNING! It's very important for system safety and efficient operation to use appropriate cable for PV
module connection. To reduce risk of injury, please use the proper recommended cable size as below.

PV Module Selection: (Only for the model with PWM solar charger)
When selecting proper PV modules, please be sure to consider below requirements first:
1. Open circuit Voltage (Voc) of PV modules not exceeds max. PV array open circuit voltage of inverter.
Charging Current (PWM) 50Amp
System DC Voltage 24Vdc 48Vdc
Operating Voltage Range 30~32Vdc 60~72vdc
Max. PV Array Open Circuit Voltage 80Vdc 105Vdc
2. Max. Power Voltage (Vmpp) of PV modules should be close to best Vmp of inverter or within Vmp range to
get best performance. If one PV module cannot meet this requirement, it’s necessary to have several PV
modules in series connection.
9
Maximum PV module numbers in Series: Vmpp of PV module * X pcs ≒ Best Vmp of Inverter or Vmp
range
PV module numbers in Parallel: Max. charging current of inverter / Impp
Total PV module numbers = maximum PV module numbers in series * PV module numbers in
parallel
Take 3KVA model inverter as an example to select proper PV module. After considering Voc of PV module not
exceed 80Vdc and max. Vmpp of PV module close to 30Vdc or within 30Vdc ~ 32Vdc, we can choose PV module
with below specification.
PV Module Selection: (Only for the model with MPPT solar charger)
When selecting proper PV modules, please be sure to consider below parameters:
1. Open circuit Voltage (Voc) of PV modules not exceeds max. PV array open circuit voltage of inverter.
2. Open circuit Voltage (Voc) of PV modules should be higher than min. battery voltage.

PV Module Wire Connection
Please follow below steps to implement PV module connection:
1. Remove insulation sleeve 10 mm for positive and negative conductors.
2. Suggest to put bootlace ferrules on the end of positive and negative wires
10
with a proper crimping tool.
3. Fix strain relief plate to the inverter with supplied screws as shown in below chart.
4. Check correct polarity of wire connection from PV modules and PV input connectors. Then, connect positive
pole (+) of connection wire to positive pole (+) of PV input connector. Connect negative pole (-) of
connection wire to negative pole (-) of PV input connector. Screw two wires tightly in clockwise direction.
Recommended tool: 4mm blade screwdriver
5. To ensure wires are securely connected, you fix wires to the strain relief with cable tie.
Final Assembly
After connecting all wirings, please put bottom cover back by screwing two screws as shown below.
Communication Connection
Please use supplied communication cable to connect to inverter and PC. Insert bundled CD into a computer and
follow on-screen instruction to install the monitoring software. For the detailed software operation, please
check user manual of software inside of CD.

When to Equalize
In float stage, when the setting equalization interval (battery equalization cycle) is arrived, or equalization is
active immediately, the controller will start to enter Equalize stage.
27
Equalize charging time and timeout
In Equalize stage, the controller will supply power to charge battery as much as possible until battery voltage
raises to battery equalization voltage. Then, constant-voltage regulation is applied to maintain battery voltage
at the battery equalization voltage. The battery will remain in the Equalize stage until setting battery equalized
time is arrived.
However, in Equalize stage, when battery equalized time is expired and battery voltage doesn’t rise to battery
equalization voltage point, the charge controller will extend the battery equalized time until battery voltage
achieves battery equalization voltage. If battery voltage is still lower than battery equalization voltage when
battery equalized timeout setting is over, the charge controller will stop equalization and return to float stage.
