Mpp Range Limit % (Auto Sweep Mode only)
The MX60 searches for the MPP voltage by sweeping the input voltage up to one half (default) of
the Voc, which is based on values appropriate for a solar array. Micro-hydro and fuel cell systems
can require a broader range, normally on the lower end. Adjusting the lower limit, expressed as 1/2
on the display screen, for FULL allows the MX60 to sweep the input voltage close to the battery
voltage instead of 1/2 (or 50%) of the Voc.
This adjustment only aff ects the initial sweep at the beginning of the day and any subsequent sweeps
caused by Auto-Restart or any forced restart of the MX60.
In addition to adjusting the Mpp Range Limit, changing the Sweep Interval from its default three-
minute setting to zero minutes will also enhance the performance and reliability of some applica-
tions' voltage input system.
To adjust the Lower Mpp Range Limit and disable the Sweep Interval:
