Starting up the controller

Self Test

As soon as the controller is supplied with power from the battery, it starts a self test routine.

Then the display changes to normal operation.

System Voltage

The controller adjusts itself automatically to 12 V or 24 V system voltage. As soon as the voltage

at the time of start-up exceeds 18 V, the controller assumes a 24 V system. If the battery voltage

is not within the normal operation range at start-up, a status display according to the section

ERROR DESCRIPTION occurs.

Battery Type

The controller is preset to operate with lead-acid batteries with solid electrolyte (GEL type or

AGM type). If you intend to use a lead-acid battery with liquid electrolyte, you can adjust the

charging characteristics (see "Settings"). The equalization charge mode is then added. If you

intend to use a LiFePO4 battery, you also can adjust the charging characteristics (see "Settings").

In case of any doubts consult your local dealer.

Recommendations for Use

The controller warms up during normal operation.

The controller does not need any maintenance or service. Remove dust with a dry tissue.

It is important that the battery gets fully charged frequently (at least monthly). Otherwise the

battery will be permanently damaged.

If too much energy is being drawn during the charging process, a battery cannot be fully

charged. Keep that in mind, especially if you install additional loads.
