3.  Installation and Indication

3.1  Connection

The PV Charge Controller should be connected as follow:

Figure. 2 Connection of PV Charge Controller

This controller has 

Electronic Blocking

 feature, therefore, it is not necessary to connect a diode

between the PV module and the Controller.
The recommended wire size is #12AWG(SBC-6108/6112) / #10AWG(SBC-6120).
It is recommended that the PV Charge Controller should be installed in a dry, sheltered location
away from sources of high temperature and moisture.

     LED Indicator

Red Flashing.................... Battery Voltage is lower than 12.6V
Constant Red................... Battery Voltage has reached Low Voltage Disconnect(LVD)
Constant Green................ Battery Voltage is higher than 12.6V
Green Flashing................ Battery Voltage has reached Bulk Charging Setting. 

(Fully Charged)

Orange Flashing............... Battery Voltage is lower than Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD)

Voltage Setting and load has been disconnected.

Red-Green Flashing......... Equalization Charging in process.
