OPERATION
SETTING TYPE
DISPLAY
1. Battery Type
(AGM / Sealed / Flooded / LFP (LiFePO4) / Custom)
This is the type of battery that is connected to the solar controller. Set this so the solar
controller charges the battery according to the needs of that battery
2. Temperature Unit
(°C / °F)
This is the temperature value. Default is °F for the United States and °C for Canada.
Change this to suit your preference.
3. Force Absorption
(YES / NO)
If the controller has already charged the battery and has transitioned to the float stage,
setting this to YES will cause the solar controller to raise the voltage back up to absorp-
tion voltage again, hold it there for the absorption time and then go back to float. Use
this if you want to top up the battery to 100% before nightfall or for any other reason.
4. Enable / Disable Charging
(Ena / Dis)
Allows you to disable the solar controller so it will not charge anymore. Use this if you
are performing maintenance on the controller for safety as it will not actively charge the
battery.
5. Enable / Disable Status Rotation
(Ena / Dis)
Allows you to disable the auto rotation between status parameters. Default is enabled
so it will transition between displaying the voltage and current, solar voltage and tem-
perature. If disabled it will stay on whatever screen you manually transition to. Use this
if you want to see one screen all the time and not have it changing constantly.
6. Soft Reset
(YES / NO)
Resets the solar controller. This feature is used for troubleshooting if the controller is not
operating correctly. It may fix the problem without having to remove the controller from
the wall and power cycle. If not, a hard reset would be next by completely removing
power and applying it again.
7. Factory Reset
(YES / NO)
Resets the controller to factory defaults for everything. Use this if selling the controller,
or if unsure of what was changed to bring the controller back to a known state. This
would likely be performed during troubleshooting over the phone to have a known
baseline.
