Step 8:
Uncover the panel — you should see the icon on the upper left of the controller display change from a
moon to a sun after this is done. As time passes, you should the battery charge increase, until the controller
is in “Float” mode (NOTE: time to reach Float will vary depending on many factors including weather, lo-
cation, time of year, and battery capacity). Once in Float mode, the battery can be used to provide power. It
is best practice to ensure that the battery bank reaches Float at least once per week.
Step 7:
Connect the bare wire end of the (previously
marked) positive cable to the “PV Positive” input
of the controller, and the negative cable end to the
“PV Negative” input (the left set of terminals).
