To add solar to the BBB idSWITCH LMP1218-PWM, connect the solar panel as one of the input sources. The unit supports multiple charging sources, including solar panels. When connected, the solar panel can charge the auxiliary battery, either alone or together with other sources like the alternator or AC mains. No additional configuration is mentioned, so ensure proper wiring and voltage compatibility.
