If your model is supplied with the LCD meter, the controller
will include a precision 3-digit meter that displays battery
voltage, PV array current and load current. The meter will
automatically sequence between these 3 parameters. The
3 small green status LED’s will indicate which parameter is
being displayed.
The LCD meter will operate from -30°C to +85°C. The
values displayed are accurate to within a few percent.
However, please note that if the
BATTERY SENSE
is not
connected, the voltage displayed will be reduced by the
voltage drops in the battery wires.
The red
DISCONNECT
button will provide an immediate
disconnect of both the PV array and load when pushed
(the button’s red LED turns on). To return the controller to
normal operation, push the button a second time. Note
that restarting the controller with the button will cause the
controller to go through the start-up sequence with the
normal delays and LED indications.
