4.4 Supplying the controller with voltage
✔ At least the battery and the solar module have been connected as described previously.
1. Fit the terminal cover so that the danger notice is legible (and not upside-down).
2. Fit the fastening screws.
3. Switch on the external battery fuse: Insert the fuse insert into the fuse holder (safety fuse) or
switch on the DC line circuit breaker. The controller automatically starts operating, displays
the company logo after a few seconds and then displays the detected system voltage in an
event message (System voltage xx V) or RTC not set ( Fig. 6).
NOTICE!
English is set as the default menu language at the factory.
4.
Press D, Ñ to display the System voltage xx V. Note the displayed system voltage.
5. If additional event messages are displayed, or no messages are displayed (display dark), then
check the installation and if necessary correct the error using
Ä
Chapter 10 ‘Troubleshooting’
on page 111.
6. Press ESC to acknowledge the event message. The standard status display appears (
Fig. 7).
7. Check that the noted system voltage corresponds to the actual battery voltage. If not, then
set the correct system voltage via the expert menu (‘Main menu è Battery settings
è Expert menu è System voltage
’;
Ä
Chapter 8.5.14 ‘Expert menu’ on page 72).
NOTICE!
When commissioning an MPPT 6000-S slave in a master/slave system via the StecaLink bus, the
system voltage used locally at the device is specified by the MPPT 6000-M master, without
changing the information message at the MPPT 6000-S. In a master/slave system the system
voltage detection must always be checked, and corrected if necessary, at the master device.
When operating the MPPT 6000-S in single mode the system voltage detected at the device
must be checked as described. In systems with lead-acid batteries the detected system voltage
is used for defining the charge voltage and deep-discharge protection ranges. The detected
system voltage is only displayed for information when using Li-Ion or NiCd battery types. The
charging range is determined based on the configured number of battery cells.
