What to do if my Lumiax MC2010 Controller shows a short circuit?
If your Lumiax Controller indicates a short circuit, switch off all loads and remove the short circuit. The load will automatically reconnect after 1 minute.
What to do if my Lumiax MC2010 Controller displays an over current?
If the Lumiax Controller is showing an over current, reduce the load. The controller will resume working after 1 minute, and the load will be reconnected when the battery is recharged.
Why is the battery voltage too high on my Lumiax MC2010 Controller?
If the battery voltage is too high on your Lumiax Controller, check if other sources are overcharging the battery or if the battery parameter is set correctly. If neither of these is the cause, the controller might be damaged.
What to do if my Lumiax MC2010 is over temperature?
If your Lumiax Controller is experiencing over temperature, it will return to normal operation after the temperature decreases.
What to do if the Lumiax MC2010 shows abnormal battery voltage at start-up?
If the Lumiax Controller displays an abnormal battery voltage at start-up, charge or discharge the battery so that the battery voltage is within the normal operating range (8.5~15.5V or 20~30V).

The Lumiax Magicube series MPPT Solar Controller is an advanced solar PV charge controller designed to optimize the charging process in solar systems. It utilizes Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology, achieving a conversion efficiency of up to 98%, which ensures that the maximum available power from the solar module is utilized to charge the battery. This controller is suitable for various solar system configurations, offering flexibility and a range of features to enhance system performance and battery life.
The primary function of the Magicube series controller is to manage the charging of batteries from solar panels. It employs a sophisticated 4-stage battery charging algorithm: MPPT, boost, equalization, and float.
MPPT Charge: In this initial stage, the controller actively tracks the maximum power point of the solar module to extract the highest possible power. This is particularly beneficial when the solar module's maximum power voltage (Vmp) is significantly higher than the battery voltage, leading to a "current boost" where the battery current is proportionally greater than the solar input current. This stage continues until the battery reaches the boost voltage setpoint.
Boost Charge: Once the battery voltage reaches the boost setpoint, the controller switches to constant-voltage regulation to prevent overheating and excessive gassing of the battery. This stage typically lasts for 120 minutes. The controller enters the boost charging stage upon power-on if it detects neither an over-discharged nor an over-voltage condition.
Equalize Charge: This stage is designed for certain battery types that benefit from periodic equalizing charges. It helps to stir the electrolyte, balance battery voltages, and complete chemical reactions by increasing the battery voltage above the standard complement voltage, causing the battery electrolyte to gasify. If the controller detects an over-discharged battery, it will automatically initiate a 120-minute equalization charge. This stage is not performed constantly to prevent excessive gassing or overheating.
Float Charge: After the boost voltage stage, the controller reduces the battery voltage to the float voltage setpoint. In this stage, the battery is fully recharged, and the charge current is reduced to a smaller voltage and current to offset self-consumption and small loads, maintaining full battery storage capacity without overcharging. If system loads exceed the solar charge current and the battery voltage drops below the boost reconnect charging voltage, the controller will exit the float stage and return to bulk charging.
The controller also offers multiple load control modes, including "Always on," "Dusk to Dawn," "Evening," and "Manual," providing flexibility in managing connected loads. It features real-time energy statistics, allowing users to monitor operating data and working conditions easily through an LCD display.
