Solar Panel Remote Charge Controller and Monitor

The solar charger monitor is used to control the output
of rooftop-mounted solar panels to the coach and
chassis batteries. When the batteries are below 13
volts and there’s output from the panels, the controller
will operate in full charge mode, applying the full output
of the panels to the batteries through a relay mounted
on the printed circuit board. When the voltage on the
batteries reaches 14.4 volts, the controller switches
into a current limited, constant voltage mode. In this
mode, the battery voltage is maintained at 13.6 volts at
a maximum of one amp. In either of first two models,
the “CHARGING” LED on monitor panel will be lit.
When the current falls below 0.25 amps, the
“CHARGING” LED goes out and the
“CHARGE” LED will come on. (See figure on this page.)
The voltage thresholds are temperature compensated to ensure proper charge on the
batteries.
Problem Possible Cause/Solution
CHARGING LED Solar panel not putting out sufficient power.
Does not come on. Check for sunlight on panel.
Check voltage coming along from panel
CNE1. If low, check panel wiring.
Replace printed board.
Charged LED does not come on. More than 0.25 amps drain on batteries.
Turn off battery disconnect relays.
Batteries not charging. Check voltage from solar panel when
in sunlight.
Should be more than 15 volts.
If less, check solar panel for damage.
Check wiring from panel.
Relay K4 on board should be closed.
If not replace board.
Check for excessive drain on batteries.
Turn off battery disconnect relays to see
if charging occurs.
