Have power-rite plus by deltec,model prb300- 300va. need to know how to set the dip switches on the back of unit. please help,tnx. Gary

Hi, interesting question....
If you have access to a large enough solar system, then as long as there is sufficient power from the inverter, it will work as the UPS will consider it is being powered by a mains source.

The amount of power you will need from the SS will directly depend on how much load you have on your UPS.
Remember that you will need enough power from the SS to drive the
1) UPS electronics
2) UPS battery charger
3) Load items

Hope this helps,thanks for using FixYa

you can download the user manual on their website.

This issue sounds tricky. I recommend you callthe Sta Rite technical support at 888-782-7483 and they should be able to helpyou figure this issue out.

I hope this helps.

You don't need the original switch positions. Make sure the row of switches in the motor unit are set exactly the way the remote is. The switches are normally marked + 0 -. Move all of them to the plus sign and try.

There is always the possibility that it has just quit but you can try programming it. Locate the smart/learn button on the rear of the motor unit near where all those white wires go. Press and immediately release this and then walk over to the keypad and key in your 4 digit code and press enter.

Most cities have local recycling centers where you can drop off paper, plastic, etc. They usually have something set up for electrical components like VCRs and batteries. The PowerRite Plus was an old Deltec model. Deltec was acquired a few times and is now belongs to Eaton. If you are looking for a new UPS, you can participate in the UPSgrade program which includes recycling your old UPS: eaton.com/upsgrade.

In most cases, when you have the problems you are having, it is because the float switch is not set properly. On most machines, it's located in the front of the machine, just behind the front cover, next to the water pump. It is usually white with a black boot on the bottom. There should be 2 screws holding it. You can loosen the screws and slide the float switch all the way down to the bottom of the slots and then tighten them back. This will lengthen the freeze cycle and the cubes will become larger.
Your Model number is not in any of my manuals and the Hoshi tech site has no such model listed. Please check you model number. Can not get you dip switch settings if we don't know the machine you have. Plus Hoshi has changed their board several times. We would have to determine if yours has been changed, and if so, to which one.
Hope this helps you.

You need to completely power off (wall switch or breaker) when changing the dip switches. Not just power off from remote because it will keep previous setting. I learned it the hard way....

why don't you get a controller for that supply? I got one...

Change the DIP switch to PAL, unplug the unit (no power), then plug it back in. You need to power-cycle the unit to after changing DIP switch settings.

Also make sure that your capture application is set to PAL mode, if there is a NTSC/PAL setting.
