IMPORTANT 
 
As a connected solar panel delivers a charge, the solar panel must be covered or 

disconnected when any work or wiring is being done on the control board (other than when 
adjusting trimpots or limit switches) 
 
 
Step 2 

Locate RED wire with spade terminal (Which will be disabled from Positive on Battery).  
Connect this wire and you are ready to set your limits.
