Install the Converter away from any heat. Proper ventilation around the unit is very important: allow at
least 20 cm/ 8 inch between the front and the rear part of the unit to ensure suf cient air ow to the
cooling fan. During normal operation the equipment may reach high temperatures, install the Converter
in an area where people will not get in contact with it. An appropriate periodic cleaning and
maintenance program is recommended to keep the equipment in perfect condition. If the equipment is
installed in a particularly dusty environment, increase the cleaning and maintenance program, making
sure that the ventilation system is working properly.
2. Front panel

Keyswitch, LCD display, led status signals and control pushbuttons are located on the front panel

2.1. KEYSWITCH

The keyswitch allows to start the converter. It will take 70 seconds. If the key is set in the [ON] position,
at the end of the initialization, the SPC will supply power. If the key is turned in [OFF] position, at the end
of the initialization the converter is ready to start immediately, as soon as the key is turned in [ON]
position.

2.2. LED SIGNAL

[Ready] Green Led ight: the Converter is ready to start.

[On] Green Led Light: the Converter is operational.

[Fault] Red Led Light: the LED light appears if there is a malfunction on the converter.
We recommend you to call for assistance.

2.3. CONTROL PUSH BUTTONS

The menu navigation commands is used to control the equipment, display messages/electrical power
feedbacks, on the LCD panel. Please refer to sections 3 and 4 of this manual for detailed information.

3. STARTUP
3.1. Startup

When the converter is powered up it takes 70 seconds to be ready to operate. A welcome message will
appear. A countdown appears showing the remaining time before the inverter is ready to operate.

During the rst start-up, the system will verify its status. It will take 70 seconds to appear the [ON] green
led. During this phase, the equipment will not accept any command.

At the end of this process, the Converter will be ready for operation. A message will show the status of
the key and the inverter. At the end of the process a green light appears and the panel shows: “key OFF
and inverter OFF.”

3.2. IGNITION

Turning the key from OFF position to ON position the converter turns on and the panel shows: “Key
on, inverter on.”

AUTO-RESTART
If a voltage drops or a blackout occurs the converter will shut off and it will restart automatically when
the power restores. The process will take 70 seconds and the previously settings will be maintained.

3.3 REMOVING THE KEY

When the installation of the converter is done, remove the key leaving it on the ON position. This will
allow your converter to always be in AUTO-RESTART mode.

4. PANEL MENU

Pressing the SET push button you will see three types of menu. The rst shows the electrical measurements,
the second displays the alarms and the third one allows to increase or decrease the output voltage +/- 10
volts. We strongly suggest not to manipulate this setting in order to not compromise the converter
functionality.

To change menu, press SET. To scroll through the pages in the menu press the Up and Down push
buttons.

4.1. MEASUREMENTS MENU

This menu shows the value of the electrical measurements:

The last page of the menu allows you to select the measurement display mode. By keeping pressed for 15
seconds the up button, you can change the frequency mode between 50 and 60 Hz.

4.2 ALARM MENU

This menu shows the alarm status. If there are no alarms the page will be blank.

When an alarm occurs, the inverter turns off; the green LED goes off and the red LED lights up to alert the

Entering this menu the user can set output voltage by selecting the right and and left pushbuttons.
To switch the frequency from 50 to 60Hz hold down the [UP] button for 15 seconds. To switch the frequency
from 60 to 50 Hz hold down the [UP] button for 15 seconds. To con rm the selected value press the "SET"
button.
The selected value will be stored automatically when you exit from the menu.

5. CONNECTIONS

The power system is composed of one cabinet. The converter is provided with the ANG AUTO-RANGING
Input Voltage System. It will automatically accept single phase voltage ranging from 190 to 260 volts. The
connection to the terminal block to the power supply, is located on the side of the cabinet. The converter
automatically con gure itself based to the input line voltage.

It can be powered with ONLY 1 SINGLE PHASE power cord.

Positioned on the side of the cabinets, where the DANGER sticker is attached, there is a removable panel,
that give you access at all the terminal block connections.

6. INTERFACE

The converter can be optionally provided of a RS232 interface port that used to remote diagnostics via
optional radio transmitter.

7. PROTECTIONS
The product is electronically protected against overload, short-circuit and over temperature as to avoid
irreversible faults to the product. Should the internal temperature be higher than 55°C (131°F) or should
the current be higher than 105% of the maximum rated current for more than 6 (six) seconds, the
converter will stop itself.
Subsequently, the inverter will automatically restart. If this procedure is repeated 3 times in a time less
than 2 minutes the converter permanently locks.
To restart it it will be necessary to use the key.

8. RESET AFTER OVER TEMPERATURE OR OVER LOAD PROTECTION LOCK

In order to reset the converter switch it off and on again. After an overtemperature protection, the
converter can be reset only when the internal temperature achieves 45°C (113°F).
An overload can only be solved by lowering it. In case of overload we recommend to check the boat’s
power demand.

9. OPERATING CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES

9.1. Issues related to led and LCD.

Front panel leds and LCD display will alert the operator in case of faults.
Most issueswill switch “Fault” led on and the LCD display will show a description of the problem.

9.2. Problems that cannot be shown by LED and LCD display

Some problems cannot be signalized on the front panel:

1. Faulty front panel
2. Fault on recti er (the converter cannot be supplied)
3. Fault of sinusoidal generator on the board.
4. Fault of isolation transformer.

10. QUALITY ASSURANCE
