The manual says in by-pass mode, the AC input is passed to the AC output.
It says if in by-pass and overloaded, it will shut down and show error code 03. Some other shutdowns too.
It all could be he has too many things on for that inverter (20a max) thinking he is on 50a shore power. He is not, he is on inverter 20a and must reduce the load.
It says how to restart the inverter after a shutdown with a the load now reduced.
Everything was off and I pushed a 20a reset button on the unit. The reset did nothing.
I printed the manual and will go over and look at it in a day or two.
Based on the reviews of the thing, I have already talked to them about a separate inverter, converter, and transfer switch. They are onboard with the idea.
I still can't make sense of how it could bypass on generator and not on shore power. However, like I said, so far I am taking the owner's word for that. I would have to reconnect and verify to know for sure.
