We are wintering in FL, and have before, but always staying in RV Parks with FHU. Last winter we bought a house down here, so we came down in the Beaver (best way to bring the cat) and are storing it outdoors at a place where we have stayed many times. We will not have electricity.
Yesterday, while moving some things from the coach for the house, the AGS kicked in because the fridge had been on the inverter for several hours. After we got the fridge (residential) empty, I unplugged it, and set the generator in the inverter control panel to Manual On. I assumed that meant the generator would not start unless it was done manually. To my surprise it came on again. I shut it off, manually.
I'm going back to the coach tomorrow. I need to set the inverter to "off" (is that a good thing to do?) and have never done it before. I can't find any menu for simply turning it off. I know I have to turn off the batteries with the two disconnects in the battery bay. Will that prevent the inverter from coming on?
I don't have the OEM inverter/charger. A few years ago we upgraded to a Xantrex Freedom SW 3012 in anticipation of the switch to a residential refrigerator.
I know David Richelderfer has exactly the same unit, and he walked me through setting it up when it was new. I hope he chimes in here.
All suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you.
