6.4. Night Light Function Setting

This setting provides three options in the following order:
•  OFF: The function is deactivated (default).
•  Operating time-choice of 1 to 8 hours.
•  ON: The consumer output remains on for the entire night. 

This function controls the load output only when it is dark (at night). During daylight the 

consumer output remains off. The connected solar module records information on the 

light intensity.
The load is activated once the solar module detects that it is dark. 
Once it becomes light, the regulator deactivates the consumer output regardless which 

illumination duration has been selected. Due to different properties of various modules, 

the twilight threshold cannot be specified accurately. An activation delay cannot be set 

when twilight sets in.

6.5. Morning Light Function Setting

Analog to night light this function can switch on the load in the morning prior to sun 

rise. The morning light menu is indicated by the sun symbol instead of the moon.
•  OFF:  no morning light (factory default)
•  1..12 h: morning light duration prior to sun rise

The load output will be activated the programmed hours before sun rise. “Sunrise” is 

assumed 24 h after the last sun rise detection.
Example: morning light programmed to 3 h, last sunrise was at 6:30 h. Then the light 

will go on at 3:30 h the next day and go off at daylight.

6.6. Default Setting (Presetting) Activation

Calling up the default settings (PRE) deletes the previous 

settings and resets the charge controller to the factory 

settings.
The default setting is: SOC Control / Gel Storage Battery / Night 

Light OFF
