6.8 Redundancy function (MPPT 6000-S only)
CAUTION!
The redundancy function allows charging by the MPPT 6000-S to be automatically switched on
after a new start/reset or a failure in communication with the MPPT 6000-M in a master/slave
system. Before using the function, make sure that automatically switching on the charging
cannot lead to dangerous system states under all application and error conditions. If switching
off the MPPT 6000-M in a master/slave system should stop all charging processes then the
device control mode must be changed from Redundancy to Off.
NOTICE!
– The redundancy function at the MPPT 6000-S can be used in single-device mode and also
in master/slave mode.
–
The charging parameters used for the redundancy function correspond to the local
settings of the MPPT 6000-S or are adopted from the MPPT 6000-M via the Store
configuration parameter function. See

1.
Press D, Ñ to select Redundancy.
2. Press SET. Charging of the battery is now switched on
automatically.
6.9 Install cable strain relief
CAUTION!
Danger of damage to the device. Secure all cables connected to the MPPT 6000-M/-S with a
strain relief fixture. This ensures that the cables cannot be unintentionally disconnected and
cause short-circuits or malfunctions.
The cable feed-throughs on the housing of the MPPT 6000-M/-S do not provide reliable strain
relief.
Secure the cables with a strain relief fixture. Clearance to controller: 200 mm.
