Before running the rig on converter with no battery check to see if it is a 6300 or that type (likely in an older rig)
Somebody else can get this right, but if you have a 6300 converter, it has the DC fuse panel split into filtered and unfiltered sections with the lights not filtered and the tank monitor filtered.
The 6300 needs the battery as a filter or the dirty 12v will harm the tank monitor etc, but the lights work ok on dirty 12v. Of course with no shore power you are on battery only, which has clean 12v.
