Información de seguridade
Observe sempre as seguintes precaucións de seguridade durante a instalación e o funcionamento:
- Asegúrese de que todas as conexións estean correctas e seguras antes de aplicar a alimentación.
- Do not connect the solar panel to the controller before connecting the battery. The controller needs to identify the battery voltage first. Connecting the solar panel first may cause a voltage error and damage the controller or battery.
- Avoid short circuits on the battery, solar panel, or load terminals.
- Instale o controlador nunha zona ben ventilada, lonxe de materiais inflamables e da luz solar directa.
- This device is designed for indoor use. Protect it from moisture and dust.
- Só persoal cualificado debe realizar a instalación e o mantemento.
- Use o equipo de protección individual (EPI) axeitado durante a instalación.
For detailed safety information, refer to the "Informazioni sulla sicurezza (PDF)" document provided with your product, if available.
1. Configuración e instalación
1.1 Desembalaxe
Carefully unpack the solar charge controller and inspect it for any damage. Ensure all components are present.
1.2 Montaxe
Mount the controller vertically on a non-flammable surface in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Allow sufficient clearance around the controller for heat dissipation.

1.3 Conexións de cableado
Follow the wiring sequence carefully to prevent damage to the controller or battery. The controller features large-section wiring ports for improved isolation and mounting reliability.
- Conecte a batería: Connect the battery to the controller first. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -). The controller will automatically detect the battery voltage (12V ou 24V).
- Conecta o panel solar: Connect the solar panel to the controller. Ensure correct polarity. The controller will begin charging the battery.
- Conectar a carga: Conecte a carga de CC aos terminais de carga do controlador. Asegúrese de que a polaridade sexa correcta.

2.3 Load Operating Modes
The controller offers four load operating modes:
- Regular Mode (LD1): The load operates normally and can be manually switched on or off.
- Light Control Mode (LD2): The load automatically turns on at dusk and off at dawn.
- Light and Time Control Mode (LD3): The load turns on at dusk and operates for a set duration, then turns off. It can also be set to turn on before dawn for a set duration.
- Reverse Light Control Mode (LD4): The load automatically turns on at dawn and off at night.

2.4 Smart MPPT 4-Stage Carga
The controller utilizes an intelligent MPPT 4-stage charging process to enhance charging speed and extend battery life:
- Carga rápida: Fase de carga rápida.
- Aumentar a carga: Aumenta o voltage para garantir unha carga completa.
- Carga flotante: Maintains battery at full charge.
- Cargo de compensación: Periodically balances battery cells (for certain battery types).

3. Mantemento
Un mantemento regular garante a lonxevidade e o rendemento óptimo do seu controlador de carga solar:
- Terminais limpos: Periodically check and clean all wiring terminals to ensure tight connections and prevent corrosion.
- Inspeccionar o cableado: Examine all cables for signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. Replace any damaged wiring immediately.
- Ventilación: Ensure the installation area remains well-ventilated and free from obstructions to allow proper heat dissipation.
- Eliminación de po: Keep the controller free from dust and debris, especially on the heat sink fins, to maintain cooling efficiency.
- Comprobación da batería: Monitor battery health and electrolyte levels (for flooded batteries) as per battery manufacturer guidelines.
