INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
Specification Summary
• Nominalsystemvoltage:12/24VDC*
• MaximumPVinputvoltage:40VDC
*The controller will recognise the system rated voltage upon first
connection. If the battery voltage is lower than 16V, it will recognise the
system as 12V. If the battery voltage is greater than 16V, it will recognise
the system as 24V. You can charge a 12v battery from a panel rated from
15v up to 40v (VOC).

This controller is for off-grid solar systems and has the additional
functionality that it can charge two batteries simultaneously. The charging
process has been optimised for long battery life and improved system
performance. The comprehensive self-diagnostics and electronic
protection functions can prevent damage from installation mistakes or
system faults.
Though the controller is easy to operate and use, please take your time
to read this manual and become familiar with it. This will help you make

This controller is designed to prioritise the battery connected to the
‘Battery 1’ connections first, before then allowing a charge to the battery
on the ‘Battery 2’ connections. In practice this means that battery 1
will be around 70% + charged before the controller will start charging
battery 2. It will then bring the batteries up evenly to a full charge.
