2022 Montana High Country 331RL. Magnum Dimension inverter with CSW INVERTER 2012 control panel. How does one turn on this control panel so that we can have our GE RESIDENTIAL REFRIGERATOR on during travel day or boondocking. No one at the RV place showed us and when we called to ask no one can tell us either.
Thanks
The inverter has a red battery disconnect in the battery compartment. Turn it on. The power button on the inverter display is disabled unless programed to operate.

Had a similar issue with our '22 MHC 295RL- Solar panels were doing their thing charging the batteries but no inverter power. I tried the inverter switch in the command center but it wouldn't turn on or off. I read the manual and didn't really get anything from it.
I then thought to turn the large red switch that goes from the inverter to the batteries on and off. Boom! it must have been vapor-locked or something because the frig started working on battery. I am still not clear as to the working of the inverter but I'll figure that out during the long winter months.

That's correct. If you recycle the power it will engage the inverter.

We had the inverter on by turning the red knobs but it was the control board we couldn’t turn on. After many many many researches we finally found that you had to ouch the power and select button at the same time.
Now THOSE would be quite the shoes to try to fill! How some of these guys can pick through the minutia of details of various models and years of manufacture to give advise is more than impressive.

To turn the inverter on or off you press the power button for 1 second. Pressing the power and select button at the same time enters programing mode. It might activate the inverter but that's not the sequence. The power button is DISABLED in programing from the factory. To enable it you have to change the programing from PS-1 to PS-4. I've attached the manual and programming instructions.

I know right, he's probably taking a Lippert course right now.

Brand new 2024 381 TB , working through similar issues described above, apparently a power outage/ surge? last night. Today, the only thing that got all GFCI's up after "hard re-set (recommended by Keystone, disconnected shore and battery for 30 min) , was changing to PS4 setting on the inverter - then like magic - refer, fireplace, microwave etc all up and running. Thanks for the post - I have saved your attachments.
