Installation
Connect the MPPT Control to a BlueSolar MPPT with VE.Direct port using a VE.Direct cable.
If the MPPT Control is connected to a MPPT that shuts down at night, the MPPT Control can be connected to a battery using the
supplied cable. This way, the MPPT Control stays powered while the MPPT is off and the last received status, history and settings of
the MPPT can be viewed.
