(7. LD mode: The clock seng range is 0-12 hours. a. Clock 1 trigger condion: When

PV<10V, clock 1 turns on the load for N minutes (clock 1 is set to 3 hours by default), and

clock 2 executes following clock 1. b. Clock 2 turns oﬀ the load for N minutes (clock 2 is

set to 4 hours by default); c. Aer clock 2 execung, the load is always on unl PV>10.5V,

so the loop is repeated)

(8. TO mode: Set the load mer on/oﬀ me; the seng range is 0-24 hours.

a. for example, the default seng: turn on load at 18:00, turn oﬀ load at 6:00. The

program automacally turns on/oﬀ the load at set me).

Remark:

The load switch mode of items 6-8 is OFF by default. Please turn it on as

needed, and set the required me

c. Press and hold MENU to enter the parameter seng

interface :

1. Press MENU to switch among the 8 interfaces in sequence. 2 Press MENU to cancel

the data that has been modiﬁed but hasn’t been saved.

d. Restore the default sengs: ﬁrst press and hold the MENU buon, then turn on the

power of the baery, and the FFFF icon will be displayed on the screen.

2. UP buon descripon

Enter the parameter seng interface: press: UP / (me plus 1 / voltage plus 0.1V); press

and hold: (me / load voltage) values can be accumulated.

Press in default interface aer power-on: switch among (baery voltage/current), (load

voltage/current) and (PV voltage/current).

3. Down buon descripon

Enter the parameter seng interface and press: DOWN / (me minus 1 / voltage

minus 0.1V); press and hold: (me / load voltage) value can be reduced cumulavely.

Press in default interface aer power-on: Switch among baery current, load current,

and PV current.

4. Enter buon descripon

Press: a. In the parameter seng interface: enter to modify parameters / conﬁrm the

modiﬁcaon

b. In the baery voltage interface: load ON/OFF.

V. Wire diameter requirements:

Baery output line: (50A MAX) 6AWG--8AWG; at least 8AWG copper wire, less than 2m.
