1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Important safety information is contained throughout this manual that should be carefully observed and followed. This information is presented using the following format. Warning / Caution: Result Description of condition leading to result SYMBOL The information is categorized in two ways: Warning: Bodily harm could occur if instructions are not explicitly followed. -
Page 6: Maximum Power Point Technology
2. MAXIMUM POWER POINT TECHNOLOGY Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is an advanced charging technology that more efficiently harvests power from solar panels in all conditions. It does this by continuously tracking the I-V curve of the solar array and modifying operating conditions to maximize output power. - Page 7 MAXIMUM POWER POINT TECHNOLOGY The graph below shows how the IV curve of a solar panel changes with varying temperatures. In partially shaded conditions there can also be multiple peaks in the P-V curve that can confuse an MPPT algorithm. Shown in the diagram below is a series string of solar panels.

Page 8: Overview
3. OVERVIEW Solar controllers, or solar charge controllers, continuously monitors the solar panel’s generating power and tracks the highest voltage and current values (VI) in real time, enabling the system to charge the battery to maximum power. It’s designed to be used in off-grid solar photovoltaic systems to coordinate operation of the solar panel, battery, and load, functioning as the core control unit in off-grid photovoltaic systems. -

5. WIRING Connection Order: Connect components to the charge controller in the sequence as shown above. Pay attention to the “+” and “-”. Please don’t insert the fuse or turn on the breaker during the installation. When disconnecting the system, reverse this order. The BATTERY LED will show green once the unit powers on. -

8. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Temperature sensor break down • If the temperature sensor is damaged or short-circuited, the controller will be reset to chargingn/discharging at the default tem- perature 25 ºC to prevent battery damage. High Voltage Transients • The controller is protected against small high voltage transients. In lightning prone areas, additional external suppression is rec- ommended. -
