INSTALLATION
Unpacking and Inspection
Carefully unpack the inverter/charger from its shipping carton. Verify all of items list below are present. Please call customer service if any items are missing.
The unit 1 user’s manual
Basic Configuration
GSII Series hybrid Inverter is designed to serve as a backup power supply for AC loads. The input power of GSII Series hybrid Inverter comes from PV system and AC grid which not only supply power to AC loads but also charge the battery bank when the power from AC grid or AC generator is present (also known as Line Mode).In the event of AC grid (or AC generator) outage, the AC loads can be alternatively powered by PV system (if the illumination is sufficient) and battery bank. The following illustrations show basic applications for GSII Series hybrid Inverter.
Figure 1. Typical Application of GSII series hybrid Inverter Note: Appliances like Air conditioner needs at least 3 minutes to restart in case of a power shortage occurs
in a way that the power turns off then back on again rapidly (time is required to balance the refrigerant gas in inside circuit); so in order to protect your Air conditioner, please consult the Air conditioner manufacturer whether they have already provided time delay function before installing. Otherwise, Inverter will trig overload fault and shut off its output to protect your appliance but sometimes it is not enough and your Air conditioner can be damaged internally beyond repair.

DC Disconnect and Over-Current Protection
For safety and to comply with regulations, battery over-current protection and disconnect devices are required. Fuses and disconnects must be sized to protect the DC cable size used, and must be rated for DC operation. Do not use devices rated only for AC service ­ they will not function properly. Note: that some installation requirements may not require a disconnect device, although over-current protection is still required.
Battery Cable Connection
Observe Battery Polarity! Place the ring terminal of DC cable over the bolt and directly against the unit’s battery terminal. Tighten the M8 screw with 6-10 Nm. Do not place anything between the flat part of the Backup System terminal and the battery cable ring terminal or overheating may occur. DO NOT APPLY ANY TYPE OF ANTI-OXIDANT PASTE TO TERMINALS UNTIL AFTER THE BATTERY CABLE WIRING IS TORQUED!! WARNING: Shock Hazard Installation must be performed with care for the high battery voltage in series.

Caution!! Do NOT place anything between battery cable ring terminals and terminals on the inverter. The terminal screw is not designed to carry current. Apply Anti-oxidant paste to terminals AFTER terminals have been screwed. Verify that cable lugs are flush with the battery terminals. Tighten battery cables to terminals (6-10 Nm). Before making the final DC connection or closing DC breaker/disconnect or, be sure Positive (+) must be connected to positive (+) and negative (-) must be connected to Negative (-).
