FAST & SHORT GREEN BLINKS

Charging (high current, more than ~3.7A):

 

LONGER, SLOWER GREEN BLINKS

Charging (current limit):

 charging at current limit (10.5A+). 

LONG, THEN SHORT GREEN BLINKS

 ERROR INDICATION

Over-temperature: 

The controller’s internal temperature is too 

high.  

SETS OF 2 RED BLINKS.

Overload: 

This could be caused by changing the solar panel 

connections while the controller is operating.  

SETS OF 3 RED BLINKS.

Battery voltage too low: 

The controller cannot begin charging due 

to low battery voltage.  If the nominal battery voltage is correct 
(12V), charge the battery by some other means before use. 

SETS OF 4 RED BLINKS

Battery voltage too high: 

If the nominal battery voltage is correct 

(12V), check the functioning of other chargers that may be 
connected to the system.  

SETS OF 5 RED BLINKS.

Panel voltage too high:

 Only 12V nominal solar panels may be 

used with this controller.  

SETS OF 6 RED BLINKS.

Internal error:

 Contact your dealer for assistance.
