Setup
Follow these steps for proper installation of your solar charge controller. Always connect the battery first, then the solar panel, and finally the load.
Istruzzjonijiet tal-Wiring:
- Qabbad il-batterija: Connect the positive and negative terminals of your battery to the corresponding battery terminals on the solar charge controller. Ensure correct polarity.
- Qabbad il-Panel Solari: Connect the positive and negative terminals of your solar panel(s) to the corresponding solar input terminals on the controller. Ensure correct polarity.
- Qabbad it-Tagħbija (Mhux obbligatorju): If using a DC load directly from the controller, connect its positive and negative terminals to the load output terminals.

Importanti: Always connect the battery first and disconnect the solar panel first when disassembling the system.
Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
Għażla tat-Tip tal-Batterija:
The controller supports various battery types. It is crucial to select the correct battery type for optimal charging and battery health.

Image showing the battery type indicator lights: White for Lead Acid, Red for AGM/Gel, Blue for Calcium, and Green for LiFePO4.
How to Select Battery Type:
- Pass 1: Keep the battery and the controller connected.
- Pass 2: Long press the battery type button on the controller. Wait for the indicator light to flash.
- Pass 3: While the light is flashing, press the button repeatedly to cycle through the desired battery types (White: Lead Acid, Red: AGM/Gel, Blue: Calcium, Green: LiFePO4). Release the button when the desired battery type's indicator light is selected. The light will remain on, indicating successful selection.

Manutenzjoni
Manutenzjoni regolari tiżgura l-lonġevità u l-prestazzjoni ottimali tal-kontrollur tal-iċċarġjar solari tiegħek.
- Tindif: Naddaf il-barra tal-kontrollur perjodikament b'ċarruta niexfa biex tneħħi t-trab u l-fdalijiet. Kun żgur li l-fetħiet tal-ventilazzjoni huma ċari.
- Konnessjonijiet: Annually check all wiring connections for tightness and corrosion. Loose connections can cause overheating and poor performance.
- Ambjent: Ensure the installation environment remains within the specified operating temperature range and is free from excessive moisture or direct sunlight.
