Introduction
The CSW-RS Remote Switch is designed for use with Magnum Energy’s
CSW1012 inverter. This remote switch is simple to install and use; allowing
easy inverter ON/OFF control and a quick indication of the inverter’s ON/OFF
status from a more convenient location.
Installation
WARNINGS:
• All wiring should be performed by a certifi ed technician or elec-
trician in compliance with all applicable electrical safety wiring
regulations and installation codes.
• Before installing or using this remote, read this entire manual
and adhere to all cautionary markings located on the inverter and
on the batteries.
Pre-Installation
1. Determine a suitable location to mount the remote switch. It must be
located in a clean, dry, and protected place.
2. Plan the cable route from the remote to the inverter before you do any
cutting or drilling to ensure there are no obstructions that can’t be overcome.
3. Allow ample room to access the remote switch and view the LED indicator.
Connecting the Remote Cable
The remote cable is hardwired to the back of the remote switch and is a
20-foot, 4-conductor cable (wired like a normal telephone type cable). This
cable connects to the Remote port located on the front of the inverter, as
shown in Figure 1.
Info: If the 20-foot remote cable length is not enough, it may
be extended up to 50 feet using a standard 4-conductor male to
female telephone extension cable.

Mounting
CAUTION: Always check for hidden electrical wires, pipes, and
cables BEFORE drilling, cutting, or screwing into walls or cabinets.
To mount the remote on a wall, the remote’s display panel will need to be
placed into an opening. This opening must have at least a 1” depth to allow
room for the remote’s rear switch and wires/cable.
1. Cut an opening in a wall – see Figure 3 to determine the correct opening
dimensions. DO NOT cut the opening too big. Ensure there are no openings
around the display, and that there is enough material for the screws to secure
the display. Remove any wall insulation (if applicable) that may contact the
back of the remote.
2. Route the remote cable thru the opening in the wall to the inverter location.
3. Position the remote into the opening in the wall and secure with two screws.
4. After ensuring the inverter is OFF, plug the remote cable into the Remote
port on the front of the inverter as shown in Figure 1.
