WARNING: Shock Hazard and Equipment Damage

It may be necessary to remove the ribbon cables in the course of servicing the Radian. (This is detailed in a
separate document.) The cables must never be removed until all power has been disconnected from the
Radian for a minimum of one minute. If the cables are removed prematurely, the Radian’s capacitors will
retain a sizable charge, which can cause electrical shock or severe equipment damage during normal
handling. This damage is not covered under the unit’s warranty.

12V AUX: Delivers 12 Vdc up to
0.7 amps (8.4 watts). The output can
be switched on and off for many
functions. See page 29 for details.
See the MATE3 manual for
programming instructions.

SWITCH INV: Receives wires for a manual
on/off switch to control the inverter. See
page 28 for instructions.
NOTE: The ON/OFF INV jumper (J3)
overrides these terminals when installed.
(See above.)

RELAY AUX: Relay contacts with no
voltage (10 amps at 250 Vac or 30 Vdc).
The relay can be switched on and off for
many functions. See page 29 for details.
See the MATE3 manual for programming
instructions.

ON/OFF INV JUMPER (J3): Overrides the
SWITCH INV terminals when installed. When
installed, the inverter is ON. The ON or OFF
states can then only be controlled by the MATE3.
NOTE: J3 is installed to the ON position during
manufacture, but the Radian inverter is given an
external OFF command at the same time. Its
initial state will be OFF.

DC TERMINALS: Connect to battery cables and DC system. There are two DC
positive and two DC negative terminals. Each DC positive terminal requires
separate cables and separate overcurrent protection. See page 25 for
instructions.

RIBBON CABLES: Connect the Radian’s power
modules and control board. See Warning below.
