7. Troubleshooting

7-1 : Lighting ERROR LED

LVD : The battery voltage is low. Please charge with the battery 12.5V or more until 

becoming it. 

Battery : The cause is as follows.

‡%DWWHU\LVQRWFRQQHFWHG

‡%DWWHU\LVORZRUWRRKLJKYROWDJH

‡6KRUWFLUFXLWHG

‡'HHSO\GLVFKDUJHGEDWWHU\FDQQRWFKDUJHZLWKUHFRYHU\

Please check the wire connection and battery voltage for the system.

PV : The PV voltage is lower than battery voltage. This error will remain for about one 

minute after PV begins to generate.

There is no problem though this error occurs during the night. 

LVD&PV : LVD and the PV error occur at the same time. 

7-2 : Battery is not charged

SolarAmp mini

 charge controller will not charge unless the PV voltage is higher than 

battery voltage. It takes approximately 3 minutes to start charging from PV voltage. In 

the event of a battery fault the charge controller will not charge. On the other hand, the 

charge controller will not charge when battery is fully charged or battery voltage more 

than 13V.

7-3 : Load does not operating properly

7-4 : LED does not light

7-5 : Early start lighting function does not operate

Please check LVD status of solar controller. Even If the battery voltage is over 11.5V, 

once the controller become LVD, the load will NOT turn on unless the battery voltage 

be over 12.5V.

SolarAmp  mini

  automatically  turns  off  LED.  LED  lights  for  one  minute  only  when 

SELECT SW is pushed.

day and the setting were changed. 

Besides, when it gets dark suddenly by the bad weather, it begins to light detecting 

from the power generation of the solar battery as well as an usual controller.
