INDICATOR & LIGHTS
Work light: Constantly on when the controller is charging the battery.
Charge light: Constantly on when the controller is charging the battery.
Flash when the battery is full.
SETTINGS
The set button has two functions:
- Check the PV input voltage and controller temperature.
- Set charging voltage for lithium battery.
Check the PV input voltage and controller temperature.
When the work light is on, press the set button once to show PV input voltage
one the upper screen and the controller temperature on the lower screen.
caution！
The default battery type for the boost charge controller is lead-acid if your
golf cart battery is 48V/60V/72V lead-acid battery then adjust the voltage
gear of boost charge controller to fit your golf cart battery.
If your golf cart battery system voltage is 24V/36VOr your golf cart battery
type is lithium battery according to the last passage48V/60V/72V voltage gear
have default charging parameter for 48V/60V/72V lead-acid battery, you need to
manually adjust charge voltage .
- For 48V, the settable voltages are: 54.6V / 54.8V / 58.4V / 58.8V
- For 60V, the settable voltages are: 67.2V / 71.4V / 73V
- For 72V, the settable voltages are: 84V / 87.6V
How to set the charging voltage of boost controller
Step1: adjust voltage gear to fit your golf cart battery （e.g adjust
voltage gear to 60V for 60V golf cart battery ）.
Tips: For 24V/36V golf cart batteries ，you need adjust voltage gear to
48V.
Step 2: Hold “SET” button 5 seconds ，released “SET” button untill the
volt age on the display starts flashing.
Step 3: Press “SET” button a once for adjusting charge voltage （In 0.1V
step ), Hold “SET” button for quick charge voltage adjustment.

WIRING DIAGRAM
Step 1: Connect the controller to the solar panel, with the positive pole
of the red line connected to the positive pole of the solar panel and the
negative pole of the black line connected to the negative one of the solar
panel.
Step 2: After the solar panel is connected, the controller will be turn
on. You need to adjust the gear switch to the same voltage as the battery.
Attention: For lead acid batteries, flood batteries, and gel batteries,
you only need to adjust the gear switch and DON’T TOUCH THE “SET”BUTTON! If
you use a lithium battery, the voltage needs to be reset. You can refer to the
lithium battery setting method.
Step 3: Connect the controller to the battery pack. Likewise, connect the
positive pole of the red wire to the positive pole of the battery, and connect
the negative pole of the black wire to the negative pole of the battery. Now
you complete the installation.
Error 1: The work light is not on and the screens are not showing any
numbers
Solution: Check if the solar panels and the controller are correctly
connected.
If everything’s correct, then the controller might be damaged. Contact service
team for further assistance.
Error 2: The Voltage screen is showing normal readings but the Current
screen is not.
Solution: Check the fuse to see if it’s blown or check if the battery and
the controller is correctly connected.
Note:
-
It is strictly prohibited to use the controller under excessive voltage or power.
The controller will not work if it is connected to the battery without solar panel. -
The voltage gear of the controller must be consistent with the battery’s, and it’s dangerous to charge a battery with a higher voltage gear.
-
The controller should be connected to the solar panel first, and then to the battery. The current input and output of the controller are both positive on the red line and negative on the blue line.
-
The length of the wires connecting the controller to the battery and solar panel should be as short as possible to reduce electrical losses.
-
Solar panels should be fully exposed to sunlight without any obstruction and shadows.
-
To user of household electric vehicle: The blue (black) line in the charging line is positive and should be connected to the red output line of the controller.
-
It is prohibited to replace fuses with larger ones or copper wires. The fuse of the 450W controller is 10A.
-
The controller must be protected from water. And it’s highly recommended to be installed inside the Golf Cart.
