Here's the text from the listing;

NEW Grid Power 500W 12v 110v/240v
For Solar Panel & Wind Hybrid Systems
User Guide:
Installation & Connection
1.1 Red Terminal: to connect positive pole of DC; Black Terminal: to connect negative pole of DC.
AC Socket: to connect grid.
Switch: Power Switch, after the proper connecting, turn on, Inverter start working.
DC Input limits:
Operating Voltage range: 12.5V to 28V
Maximum input Voltage: 28V
Solar Panel: 30W minimum, only use PV panels with maximum power voltage at 17.5V.
Can ONLY connect panels in parallel. DO NOT connect them in series!
Wind Turbine: Rated output voltage 24VDC, Maximum voltage 28VDC
AC Output:
Grid Connection:
220V AC version: 170V-250V, 50Hz
110V AC version: 90V-140V, 60Hz
Island Protection: Automatically disconnect when the grid is tripped
Maximum quantity of Pure Sine-wave Inverters allowed on a main circuit: No limited
LED Indicators:
Red LED on: Input DC voltage is too high or low (less than 12.5V or more than 28V)
Red LED on: Over Heat protection once over 70℃, automatic restart after cooling
down for about 2-10 minutes.
Red LED on: Grid blackout fault
Green LED Flashing: Output power in the state of regulation.
Green LED on continuously: Inverter works normally, constantly max. output power.
Caution:
Please do install the inverter in a ventilated area to avoid over-heating
Clear out any flammable object around the installation
Recommend a maximum output DC input cable size of 4AWG or cables that can handle more than 50A.
Optimal length would be 8m or lower, Longer cables will experience higher voltage drop.
Install in a low humidity and well-ventilated area. Remove All flammable objects.
Connect the inverter to a wall socket with the supplied AC Power Cord
Connect the Solar Panel, Battery or Wind Turbine's DC Supply cables to the DC input
Terminal of the inverter. Wind Turbine installations will require respective charge Controllers and dump loads
1. Description:
