Important: the PS2Tap is only compatible with the Bergey Powersync II inverter. Approved by Bergey, installation of the PS2Tap will not void the manufacturer's warranty. The PS2Tap will not work with the Gridtek 10 inverter.

Installation

Installation of the PS2Tap in the PowerSyncII inverter is quick and easy. Most installations take 15 minutes or less.

There are three basic steps:

  1. Mount the PS2Tap inside the inverter. This requires three holes be drilled in the lower right side of the inverter. We supply a pilot drill bit and a drilling template. You will need a 3/4" hole saw or 1/2" conduit knockout punch. We even send a magnet to trap metal chips from harming your inverter. Once the holes are drilled, the PS2Tap is secured using two small screws.
  2. Connect the PS2Tap to the inverter. Just unplug a low voltage cable from the front panel display and plug it into the PS2Tap. Then run the new supplied cable from the PS2Tap to the display.
  3. Plug our gateway into your Internet connection. With the supplied antennas, the gateway can be up to 100 meters / 300 feet from the inverter. With optional gain antennas, distances of up to 1 mile can be bridged. This flexibility allows the inverter to be in an out building and the wireless gateway to be inside near your Internet connection.
