3) O-01 battery lead 4) O-04 battery clips

The controller is protected against reversed polarity input i.e. if your

solar panel’s 2-pin SAE connector does not match and you connected

it to the controller, it will not work and no damage will occur.

First connect the O-27 to your solar panel’s SAE connector and then

connect it to the OptiMate Solar DUO controller’s input connector.
