The KID Solar Charge Controller Instructions
Advanced Battery Settings:
Located under the “ Battery ” menu a submenu labeled “ Advanced ”.
This menu contains advanced charge settings.
EndAmps:
Best results are obtained when a Whiz Bang Jr. (Sold Separately) is connected to The KID.
End Amps refers to the amount of current flowing to the batteries. When End Amps are set, this function
will act as a secondary termination to the absorb timer.
The End Amps function works by monitoring the current going into the batteries during the absorb stage.
As the batteries charge, the current needed to maintain the Absorb voltage set-point reduces and
depending on the battery bank type and size there is a current flow level that indicates that the batteries
are full. End Amps are that level, if the current flow goes below the End amps setting for one minute
then the Absorb cycle will be terminated and it will go to Float stage.
Shunt Selection:
The shunt is used to measure End Amps (Above). Selecting between the internal shunt and the optional
Whiz Bang Jr. is found in the “Calibration” menu.
From the main menu TECH - Calibration .
Rebulk:
Rebulk is the Voltage set-point at which the Float stage will terminate and return to Bulk.
In Float, The KID will return to Bulk if a load placed on the battery bank reduces the battery bank voltage
below the Rebulk set point for two minutes.
