GENERATOR ALERT!
General alarm message
The generator stops. Check the system by referring
to the troubleshooting table.
If the problem persists, con-
tact the manufacturer's
branch office in your country
(addresses on the back
page).
OVERLOAD!
The consumers generate an
overload at the output.
The inverter switches off,
therefore no voltage is sup-
plied but the engine carries
on running until it goes off.
Reduce the connected load
and start the generator again.
SHORT CIRCUIT
The consumers cause a short
circuit at the output.
The inverter switches off,
therefore no voltage is sup-
plied but the engine carries
on running until it goes off.
Check the connected con-
sumers then start the genera-
tor again.
