Step 1: Battery Wiring

 

 WARNING: Risk of explosion or fire! Never short circuit battery 

positive (+) and negative (-) or cables

 

 

 

Figure 3-1

 Battery wiring 

 
Before connecting the battery, measure the battery voltage. It must be over 9V to 
power the controller. For 24V, the voltage must be greater than 18V to properly 
detect a 24V battery. The 12/24V battery detection is automatic and the check is 
only performed at start-up.

 

Wire  an  in-line  fuse  holder  no  more  than  150mm  from  the  battery  positive 
terminal.  Do  not  insert  a  fuse  at  this  time.  Confirm  the  connection  correct  and 
then turn on the power.   

Step 2: Load Wiring

 

The  MPPT40CC  load  output  can  connect  DC  electronic  devices  of  which  the 
rated  voltage  is  the  same  as  the  battery.  MPPT40CC  will  provide  battery  the 
voltage to the loads. See Section 4.4 Setting Operation for more details about the 
load control.

 Load wiring 

 
Connect  load  positive  (+)  and  negative  (-)  to  the  MPPT40CC  load  output  as 
shown  in  figure  3-2.  Exercise  caution  when  connecting  to  the  load  terminals, 
there may be an existing voltage, which may cause a short circuit. An in-line fuse 
holder  should  be  wired  in  series  in  the  load  positive  (+)  or  negative  (-)  wire  as
