Isolation Transformer - Auto Switching Voltage - Can the output be fixed?

Hi,

I understand that the Auto version of the ISO 3600 can detect the incoming voltage and switch the output. Pretty neat, but here's the thing - That doesn't make a lot of sense to me, generally you want the voltage at the output side to remain the same, not track the input voltage.

On my vessel, I want to be able to plug into either 110V OR 240V shore power, but always get 240V on the boat.


Can this be achieved on the ISO 3600 Auto?


It seems pretty pointless auto switching if the result is that you can plug into 240V and that gets 'automatically' passed through to your 110V wired boat. Did I read the manual wrong on this point?

@duncan_ellison Hi, you set the jumper on the inside of the case to the desired output voltage.

It will then auto switch to deliver that desired output voltage. auto sensed from the input.

I guess the manual is a little confusing as its for several models.
