2. KEY FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS 2.1 Multiple Inputs Table 3 Source priority X X AC MAINS PM200 master power unit may have many sources at one time. These sources include the AC mains, solar panel and starter battery (Auxiliary). Only one of them will be dominated to provide power at one time, even if all are available, priorities are listed to the right. SOLAR AUXILIARY DOMINATING SOURCE AC MAINS X X X X AC MAINS AUX 2.
2.5 PWM Solar charger controller PM200 has a built-in PWM charger for the service battery. • Max input voltage 25VDC • Max charging current 20A • Max supply current 30A 2.6 Voltage Charging Relay (VCR or commonly known as a VSR) PM200 master power unit has a built-in voltage charging relay (VCR), which offers a convenient source to charge the service battery by alternator whilst engine is running. When the starter battery reaches 13.
