Inverter

We just traded in our 2015 High Country for a 2021 3761FL. I had to turn the switch to the “on” position for the inverter power and run the fridge. It appears that the 3761 has an inline inverter with no switch. Does this inverter power up automatically when unplugged from shore power? I see the inverter LED in the power box inside the unit, but it is always on.

I'm not sure what inverter they are using on the new 2021's but it would be odd not to at least have an on/off switch. On ours, there is a "soft" button that you press and hold to turn on or off. Can you get a model number and make on the inverter? When our 2019 was new, there was a booklet for the inverter in the mountain of manuals we received.

Our 2021 has a Magnum 2000W inverter and it has a small display and switch (ours in behind a galley cabinet door adjacent to the door that hides our iN Command display). The main battery switch in the convenience center needs to be on, even though the inverter gets 12V directly from the batteries, because there is a 12v trigger circuit on the inverter (orange wire if I recall).

The inverter display/switch is the second one down on the right in the photo.
