CAUTION: Don’t connect the loads with surge power exceeding the ratings of
the controller.
CAUTION: For mobile applications, be sure to secure all wiring. Use cable
clamps to prevent cables from swaying when the vehicle is in motion. Unsecured
cables create loose and resistive connections which may lead to excessive heating
and/or fire.
Step 1: Battery Wiring
WARNING: Risk of explosion or fire! Never short circuit battery positive (+)
and negative (-) or cables
Figure 3-2 Battery wiring
Before connecting the battery, measure the battery voltage. It must be over 9V to
power the controller. For 24V, the voltage must be greater than 18V to properly detect
a 24V battery. The 12/24V battery detection is automatic and the check is only
performed at start-up.
Wire an in-line fuse holder no more than 150mm from the battery positive
terminal. Do not insert a fuse at this time. Confirm the connection correct and then
turn on the power.
