Safety regulations:

Please read the following information carefully before
installing  and  operating  the  controller. When  configuring 
the  controller  please  utilize  some  semblance  of  the 
recommeded  settings  illustrated  in  section  3.2. This  will 
avoid  damage  to  the  solar  system  by  common  problems 
such as overheating. 

Installing the controller using the 

default settings without making any adjustments to 

the configuration parameters is likely to result in an 

overheating condition of the solar system at some 

point. 

Please ensure that the mounting is in accordance to 

local, state and federal regulations.
