Control Panel
Display Precautions
When the fan icon is displayed, ensure that the air inlet and air
outlet on both sides of the product are not blocked.
When the high-temperature or low-temperature indicator flashes,
the internal temperature of the unit is outside the normal
operating range.
The product will automatically activate its protection function and
stop operating. Allow the unit to return to a normal temperature
before restarting.
When this icon flashes, the product is charging at high power
(fast charging mode).
When an output port icon flashes, the corresponding port output
is abnormal. Check the connected load and ensure it is within
the rated power range.
When this icon flashes, the product has entered silent mode.
Operation
Backup Mode
Backup Mode allows the power station to provide backup
power support for connected AC devices when utility power is
available.
When utility AC power is present, the power station remains
on standby and supplies AC output power directly from the
utility power source through an internal bypass circuit.
⚫ When the battery is not fully charged and utility power is
present, the utility input power is shared between
battery charging and load output.
⚫ When the battery is fully charged and utility power is
present, the power station can supply the full rated AC
output power to the connected load through the bypass
circuit.
In Backup Mode, connect the power station between the wall
outlet and the electrical appliance and make sure the power
station is turned ON.
During normal operation with utility power present, the
connected appliance is powered directly by utility AC power.
If the utility AC input is interrupted, the power station will
automatically switch to battery-powered inverter output within
10 ms and continue supplying power to the connected load at
the rated AC output level.
WARNING
!
Exceeding the maximum backup output current may cause
overload and output interruption.
Maximum backup output current (U.S.): 14A
When the output current exceeds the maximum limit, the
backup indicator will flash, the AC output indicator will turn off,
and output will be interrupted.

the input power.
CAUTION
!
Failure to start the vehicle engine during charging may
discharge the vehicle battery.
⚫ Typical car charging power: 90–240W
⚫ Charging time is longer compared to AC charging.
⚫ Car charging is intended for emergency or mobile use
only.
⚫ For faster charging, AC charging is recommended.
Car charging cable not included.
Solar Charging
The power station can be charged using compatible solar
panels.
Maximum solar input power: 500W
Input voltage range: 12–50V
Charging performance depends on sunlight intensity, weather
conditions, and panel configuration.
WARNING
!
Input voltage exceeding 50V may cause permanent damage
and is not covered by warranty.
Power Station Storage

Problem
What to Do
Power station will not power
connected devices even though
the load is within the rated
power range
Check the battery level and recharge the unit if the battery is low. Some devices require a
higher startup (surge) power than their rated power. Disconnect the load and try a lower-
power device.
Power station produces
noticeable noise during
operation
This is normal. Cooling fans may operate during use or charging. Some connected
electrical devices may also generate operating noise.
Charging cable feels warm
during charging
This is normal during high-power charging. Ensure the charging cable is securely
connected and not covered or coiled tightly. Use only the supplied or approved charging
cables.
What type of battery does the
power station use?
The power station uses a lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) battery, which meets applicable
safety standards.
AC output does not power
certain appliances
Ensure the total connected load does not exceed 1800 W. Check that the current draw of a
single AC outlet does not exceed its rated limit. Some appliances may have startup surges
that exceed the power station’s capability.
Unable to determine remaining
usage time
The LCD screen displays estimated remaining usage time during operation. Usage time
may change depending on load variation.
Unable to confirm whether the
unit is charging
When charging, the LCD screen displays input power. The charging indicator and AC or PV
charging icon will be displayed accordingly.
