  • Page 15 Electronic box wiring: 1. Locate the two wires that coming out of the bottom of the electronic control box, which have connected with quick connector. Connect the “North/South” quick connector to the North/South linear actuator. Connect the “East/West” quick connector to “East/West” linear actuator . 2.
  • Page 16 Electronic Controller Box and Remote controller ECO-WORTHY solar tracking system included the remote controller for testing after system was all well installed. This controller can control dual axis linear actuator to make the solar panel to follow the Sunlight, keep the solar panel always face the sunlight.
  • Page 17 Usage: (1) Fixed the control box on the frame of solar panel, You can install the light sensor a little higher than the face of solar panel so no shadow on the sensor. (2) Connect the controller to the linear actuator (Note the direction mark on the terminal of controller) (3) Connect white and black wire to power supply.
  • Page 18 How to adjust the interval time Default interval time (max interval time) 500 seconds, One time working (tracking) time is 5 seconds Default interval time is 0,you can adjust it by yourself. Rotate the time adjustment button to Adjust the interval time(max time Rotate to left to shorten the interval time(Min 0=No interval time, always tracking) Rotate to right to add the internal time (max is 500 seconds)
  • Page 19 Congratulations, your dual axis solar tracking system is now completely installed, Just wait for 40% more power from the sunlight. Your will, Our hands, Go green with ECO-WORTHY...
