connected to the shell, which can be used to connect the device negative to
the ground system.
Warning : For some equipment positive-to-ground connection systems, such as solar communication systems and portable solar systems, please do not connect the equipment ground wire to the control system casing directly at this time, otherwise it will cause a short circuit.
Operation and instructions
Main interface
After the controller is powered on, there will be a 1s initialization
interface, enter the main interface.
When there is
no operation in the main interface for the 20s, the main interface will switch
automatically when the battery voltage, solar panel voltage, load current,
charging current, ambient temperature, and other interfaces are maintained for
3s. Long press ” “on the main interface for more than 5s to accelerate
automatic exchange. Release the button to stop the speed.
Press ” ” under the main interface to turn on or off the load output.
Long press “ ” and ” “and hold on the main interface for more than 5s, and the working storage interface opens, automatically displaying the number of working days, the number of insufficient battery times, the number of full batteries, and the number of overcurrent protection.
Press ” ” key to enter the next menu of the main interface.
Accumulated charging power (AH)
This parameter is the charge AH counter, which shows the total power
generation capacity of the solar panel. Press ” and hold for more than 5s in
this interface, the counter will return to zero.
Accumulated Charging Power (AH)
Cumulative discharge power (AH)
This parameter is the discharge AH counter, which shows the power consumption
of the load. In this interface, press ” “and hold for more than 5s, the
counter can return to zero.
Float voltage setting
This parameter is the high voltage disconnect (HVD) voltage. (Increase the
boost voltage by 0.6V based on HVD) At this time, the controller starts the
PWM function (HVD) to limit the boost.
Press ” ” to join the float voltage menu. Long press the ” ” key ≥ 5S, the interface parameter is flash, here is the setting state. Release the button and press the “ ” key to add data and press the ” key to subtract data. After completing the required technical data, long-press the ” key again, ≥5S, the parameters will be saved and enter the setting state. If there is no operation for 20s, it will automatically return to the main interface.
Load reconnect voltage
Low voltage recovery operating voltage (LVR)
When the battery voltage is low, the controller stops supplying power to the
load. If the controller needs to reconnect the output, the battery voltage
must be higher than the LVD voltage or press the ” ” key to release. The
procedure is the same as (c).
Low voltage disconnection voltage
When the battery voltage is low, the load output will be cut off. When the
controller detects that the battery voltage is less than the LVD point, the
cut-off function will work immediately. At the same time, the state of the
controller is locked. The user must charge the battery, when the battery
voltage is higher than the LVD voltage or press the ” ” key to release. The
load output will return. The procedure is the same as (c). The default data of
the above three parameters a, b, c are fully considered by the designer
according to the actual usage. Users generally do not need to adjust. Please
refer to the recommendations of the battery supplier, otherwise, the battery
will be damaged or irreparably damaged.
Load working mode selection
Control the default loading 24 hours work. When the load working time is set
to 24 hours, the load will maintain a 24-hour trouble-free working state. When
the load working time is set to: s23H, it means there is a load start timer or
sensor function. If the battery capacity is sufficient, start loading at
sunset. The load will work at the hour set by the timer or stop working until
sunrise.
The procedure is the same as (c). When the load joins the timer or sensor
mode, if the reset working time exceeds the actual night time, the load output
will be turned off at sunrise, although the working time has not reached the
set hour. For example, if the local actual night time is 10 hours, the user
resets the night work time to 12 hours, but the output will be automatically
turned off after 10 hours, and the remaining time will return to zero. The
load of the next sunset signal will work normally.
Load sharing settings
This parameter is used to set the load discharge capacity. When the load
capacity (AH) reaches the set value, the load will automatically shut down and
the set value will return to zero. Please manually start the load or reset the
consumption capacity of the load. The default consumption capacity of the load
is unlimited. The procedure is the same as (C).
System voltage selection
- This parameter is suitable for customers’ wide-range voltage requirements. The default display “UT0” system voltage 12/24/48v auto.
- When the battery voltage is between 9V-15V, the controller automatically switches to 12V system work; when the battery voltage is between 18-30V, the controller automatically switches to 24V system work; when the battery voltage is between 36V-60V, the control system automatically switches to 48V operation.
- If the system voltage is set to “1”, the controller will always work in the 12V version. The battery voltage is invalid. Reset data will work after reconnecting.
- If the system voltage is set to “2”, the controller will always work in the 24V version. The battery voltage is invalid. Reset data will work after reconnecting.
- If the system voltage is set to “3”, the controller will always work in the 48V version. The battery voltage is invalid. Reset data will work after reconnecting.

the battery voltage is greater than 12.6V, the protection is turned off. Load
output and return or press ” ” on the main interface to force unlock. 24V
system is voltage x 2,48V system is voltage x 4.
Battery over-voltage disconnect (OVD)
When the battery voltage is greater than 16.5V, the overvoltage protection is
activated. When the load is cut off, the load and warning symbols flash at the
same time. When the battery voltage drops to 15V, the protection is
disconnected. The output of the load is returned. 24V system is voltage x
2,48V system is voltage x 4.
Overcurrent protection
When the load is short-circuited or overloaded, the output is disconnected,
and the load symbol and warning flash. Please confirm whether the load
terminals are short-circuited and reduce the load power. After the 30s, the
controller will automatically restart to unlock, or press “on the main
interface.
