Once connected to a 230V mains supply and
switched on, its operation is fully automatic.
When used as an alternative DC power
supply, with no battery in circuit, the unit will
supply a suitable output for use with pump,
lighting, TV, radio etc.
The facility for drawing 12V supply from the
cab battery is intended for standby situations
only, and care should be taken not to run the
cab battery too low, some models feature
cab battery protection circuitry.
If the cab battery has been used on site, then
the engine driven alternator will recharge
both it and the leisure battery whilst
travelling.
However, once the cab battery is fully
charged, the alternator will supply a trickle
charge only to the leisure battery.
