Is The Progressive Dynamics Pure Sine Wave Inverter #PD1210SR Transfer Switch Automatic Or Manual?
Question:
Does the transfer switch operate both ways, i.e. start up if AC is lost as well as shut down if AC is obtained?

The Progressive Dynamics Pure Sine Wave Inverter # PD1210SR controls the activation of the transfer switch. Whenever proper AC voltage is present at the AC input the relay is inactive and shore power will pass through automatically to the AC output. Whenever the Inverter is powered on and no power is detected at the AC input, the inverter will activate and send pure sine wave power to the AC output. When the inverter detects power at the AC input then it will deactivate the relay and pass AC in to AC out. Once you have the inverter hooked up properly, it will take care of the rest. Now that I've answered your question, here is some more information that could answer some other questions you may have now or in the future.
The Progressive Dynamics Pure Sine Wave Inverter # PD1210SR has an overload protection feature that prevents damage by shutting down the system automatically if the rated output power is exceeded. Included is a short circuit protection that will also shut down the system if it detects significant current spikes to prevent damage. The temperature protection feature prevents damage due to excessive heat. The variable speed intelligent cooling fan on the back will only operate under high heat conditions so you don't have to hear it running when it's running cool. It offers GFCI protection with the ground fault plugs to help prevent interruption. The inverter has a display panel which shows input voltage, output voltage, output power, standby and error codes.
The remote displays the same readings as the display on top of the unit and comes with a 25 foot cable. The remote will allow you turn this inverter on/off, monitor battery voltage and power consumption from up to 25 feet away.
The transfer voltage of the unit is 100 volts AC, the output power continuous is 1,000 watts, the output power peak is 2,000 watts, the has a frequency is 60 hertz.
