Dear users:
1. The solar panel’s terminal voltage may exceed human safety voltage, please use
insulating tools and ensure the hands dry.
2. Please connect wires cautiously and correctly. Although controller has reverse
protection and short circuit protection, that doesn’t mean it could handle all kinds
of wrong, reverse connection and short circuit.
3. Please don’t connect the solar panel to the controller’s battery port or load port,
otherwise the high voltage of the solar panel will damage the controller.
4. Please connect the battery first, then connect other equipments after the battery
indicator on the controller is normally on. If connect battery reversely, the voltage
of the load port will be the minus value of the battery voltage. That may damage
the load equipment.
5. MPPT controller is designed according to solar panel’s I-V curve, so when the
controller connect the general constant voltage DC source, the controller may not
work.
6. Advice is installing in the ventilated and well-cooled environment, because the
controller will fever during operation.
7. Choosing the proper cable with enough capacity to avoid extra power loss in the
circuit. Too much circuit loss may lead to wrong judgment.
8. Full charge is very important for the battery. The battery should be full charged at
least once a month otherwise the battery will suffer permanent damage. The
battery can be full charged only when the input power of the battery is more than
power consumption of the load.
9. Please do not dip the controller into the corrosive liquid otherwise the controller
will be damaged and release harmful gas.
10. Because the battery stores lots of energy, do not allow the battery short circuit in
any case. We suggest tandem connect a fuse on the battery
11. The battery may release combustible gas, please far away from the spark.
12. Ensure the children are far away from battery ,pv and controller

Ⅴ. Installation and Using Instruction
1. Fix the controller: Fix the controller onto the surface of the specific place. Keep
a certain distance between the controller and fitting surface to assure heat
dissipation
2. Wire preparation: Adopt the wire matching the current , the wire's current
density should not more than 4A/mm². Be aware of the length of wire, strip 8mm
insulation of one side of the controller terminal and try to decrease the length of
the connected wire so as to get a reduction in electrical loss.
3. Connect to the battery: connect the battery wire to the controller firstly, Pay
attention to the “+” and “–”, in case of reverse connection. If connected well, the
indicator light will be on. Otherwise, please check the connection. If reverse
connection, controller will not work but not damage the controller.
4. Connect to the solar panel: Pay attention to the “+” and “–”, do not reverse
connected. If ample sunshine, controller will show charging mode, Or should
check the connection is right. If solar panel is under the sunshine, it will produce
voltage immediately. If use 24V or over, the solar panel voltage will exceed to
body safety voltage, please prevent yourself from electric shock.
5. Connect to the Load : Connect the load to controller , make sure the current
cannot over the rated current, and notice the positive and negative electrode.
Prevent the system from reverse connection.
6. Grounded connection: If need to ground, please connect the battery ”-” pole to
the ground.
7. Connect LCD display: Connect LCD display through RJ12 interface, Mode: SR-
RM-1(Optional)
Ⅵ. Working State Indication
1. Charge indication: When the solar panel output voltage reaches a certain value,
charge indicator start to work. Different flash status represents different charge
mode. The specific meaning of charge mode is as the table A below.
2. Battery capacity indication: When the battery is normal, the indicator is on, when
it is over discharge, the indicator will slow flash, when the battery is over voltage,
the indicator will fast flash.(Table B)
3. Mode indication: When the mode indicator is on, it indicates that the value on the
Nixie tube is controller mode. The value will disappear if no key operation within
5s.
4. Fault indication: when the fault indicator is on, it indicates that the value on the
Nixie tube is controller fault code; The value will disappear if no key operation
within 5s. If fault exists, the indicator will flash.

0.1s,reclose for 1.7s,the cycle is 2s)
B. Battery Indication Specification.
When sunset, the light intensity will fall to start point, the controller will turn
on the load 5mins later after confirming the start signal. When sunrise, the
light intensity ascend to close point, the controller will turn off the load.
When there has no sunlight, the light intensity will fall to start point, the controller
will turn on the load 5mins later after confirming the start signal and the load will start
work, the load will be turn off when the working time reach at the set value. The
specific set value, please see table C.
3. Manual mode (15):
Under manual mode, user can control the load by button; no matter it is day or night.
This mode applies to special load or debugging.
4. Debug mode (16):
This mode applies to debugging; the load will be shut when receiving light signal and
it will be on without light signal. The debug mode is easy to examine the validity of
the system.
5. Normally on mode (17):
Under this mode, the load will be normally on; this mode is fit for the load which
requires 24 hours power supply.

XII. MPPT Charging Algorithm Instruction
The full name of the MPPT is maximum power point tracking. It is an advanced
charging way which could detect the real-time power of the solar panel and the
maximum power point of the I-V curve that makes the highest battery charging
efficiency. Contrast with the traditional PWM controller, MPPT controller could play
a maximum power of the solar panel so that a larger charging current could be
supplied. Generally speaking, the MPPT controller’s energy utilization efficiency is
15%~20% higher than PWM controller.
The voltage of the solar panel is about 12V when General controller is charging while
the highest voltage of the solar panel is about 17V, so it doesn’t play the largest power
of the solar panel. MPPT controller overcome this problem by adjusting the input
current and voltage constantly to realize the largest input power.
Meanwhile, the maximum power point will change due to the surrounding
temperature and sunshine condition. MPPT controller will adjust the parameter
constantly according to different conditions to make the system working in the largest
power point.
