    1. VASCO Solar Introduction VASCO Solar Solar inverters come to power traditional pumping systems using photovoltaic energy. In this way it’s possible to convert old systems in renewable energy installations or to use the same AC pumps in the creation of independent, cost-saving and environmentally sustainable water systems.

    2. Safety Instructions The manufacturer strongly suggests carefully reading this operation manual before using and installing its products Any operation (installation, maintenance and repair) must be carried out by trained, skilled, and qualified personnel. Failure to observe and follow the instructions in this manual may result in dangerous and potentially lethal electric shock. Pay attention to all standard safety and accident prevention regulations The device must be connected to main power supply via a switch to ensure the complete disconnection from the network before any operation on the VASCO...

    8.2 Initial configuration When VASCO Solar is switched on for the first time, the initial setting menu is displayed for the initial setting of parameters to configure pump and system characteristics. If the initial setting procedure is not completed properly, it is impossible to run the pump. Initial setting procedure can be repeated if necessary.
