13. LOW OIL LEVEL LED (yellow): Lights up when oil level is below
safe operating level and the engine shuts down.
14. OVERLOAD LED (red): This LED indicates a system overload.
This LED should be used in conjunction with the READY LED
which will flash an error code, see No. 15.
15. READY LED (green): Indicates output from the generator unless
there is a low oil or overload condition. In the event of a system
overload the Ready LED will provide an indication of the overload
condition. The indication consists of a series of flashes separated
by a pause. These indications are as follows:
1 Flash = Low Voltage. The unit has been overloaded to the point
where the output voltage has dropped to less than
100V AC.
2 Flashes = High Temperature of the Inverter System. The unit
has been overloaded to the point where the internal
temperature of the inverter has exceeded 212° F.
3 Flashes = Overload. The unit has been overloaded to the point
that the output power required has exceeded 110%
of rated power.
4 Flashes = Short Circuit. This indicates the unit's output has
been short circuited by the load connected to it.
