Pheonix 12/2000 Inverter

Hi group

This is my first post and apologies if this has been asked previousy but i cannot find the answer in other posts.

I am building my 1st Campervan/ RV here in the UK and after completing my wiring I tested with shore hookup for the first time, immediately i noted when i hook up to 240v i see an alarm on my inverter (Victron Pheonix 12/2000).

I was under the impression my iverter was passthrough and would accept the 240v AC when hooked up.

Can someone help me please

I think you're under a misapprehension. There's nothing I can see/find in the manual about passthrough for this model. This is a feature of the multiplus etc. which are inverter chargers.

You'll need to turn the Phoenix off when you're on shore power.

Phoenix units can not have passthrouh, only Multiplus. Actually Phoenix does not charge, only discharge from batteries.
