Main Power Switch
Press the power button for 3S to switch it on, press it again for 3S to turn
it off.
Note: Short press the switch will turn on/off the LCD display. If there is no
operation for 30 minutes, the LCD display will be turned off and the power
will be switched off automatically.
DC Switch
- Press and hold the main power switch for 3 seconds to turn on the power station. Short press the DC button to switch the DC/USB output ports on. Short-press it again to switch the DC/USB output ports off.
- Check the remaining battery power. If the remaining battery level is less than 10%, please recharge the battery.
- Connect the device to the DC cigarette lighter socket, 48V XT90 Output.
Note:
- When the DC output port is not in use, please turn off the DC output switch to save power.
XT60 Input Port Recharging
From AC Wall Outlet
- Connect the plug of adapter to the wall outlet, the other side to the X160 input port, it will automatically charging even if the power is off.
- When charging, the LCD screen indicates the percentage of remaining power, the battery indicator blinks. It also indicates X60 input, input power and estimate fully charged time.
From the Solar Panel
- Put the Solar Panel(not included) outside under the sunshine.
- Connect the solar panels(in series or parallel) with an open circuit voltage range of 12V-48V.
- The max input current of solar charging is 10A and the max input power is 200W. Even if the power is over than 200W, it will input 200W at most, but if the input power is not between 12V-48V, it can not be charged.
Attention:
- Connect the plug of MC4 to the solar panel.
- Connect the X160 to the input port, it will automatically charge even if the power is off.
- When charging, the LCD screen indicates the percentage of remaining power, and the battery indicator blinks. It also indicates XT60 input, input power and estimate fully charged time.
Car Charging
- With the included XT60-Car Charging Cable, connect the B2000 to the cigarette lighter port of the car via the car charging cable.
• When charging, the LCD screen indicates the percentage of remaining power, the battery indicator blinks. It also indicates XT60 input, input power and estimate fully charged time.
LCD DISPLAY
- When the LCD screen shows , it means the BP2000 + B2000 connects correctly.
- When the B2000 is connected with BP2000 and the LCD screen shows xi, it means the BP2000 + B2000 connects correctly and can recharge and discharge mutually.
Note:
When connecting the BP2000 with the B2000, if the remaining power is less than 5%, it cannot be paralleled (because the battery voltage gap is large). However, when you connect the input power source, you can activate it successfully and recharge the BP2000 and B2000. Normally, after the BP2000 and B2000 are connected, the high-battery device will automatically charge the low battery. However, if one of the devices is below 5%, the system will determine that the voltage gap is too large and cannot be connected successfully. At this time, when you connect the input power source, you can activate it successfully and recharge the BP2000 and B2000.
Expand with the BP2000 Power Station
- ВР2000 can connect up to 7 expansion batteries at the same time, which can expand the capacity up to 16384Wh.
- After connecting the BP2000 and B2000, long press the main power button on BP2000 or B2000, it can power ON both the BP2000 and
