5. Postavljanje i instalacija
Slijedite ove korake za pravilnu instalaciju solarnog regulatora punjenja.
5.1 Montaža kontrolera
- Odaberite suho, dobro prozračeno mjesto, zaštićeno od izravne sunčeve svjetlosti, visokih temperatura i vlage.
- Ensure there is sufficient space around the controller for heat dissipation, especially around the cooling fins.
- Mount the controller vertically on a solid surface using the provided screws.
5.2 Spajanje ožičenja
Refer to the wiring diagrams below for correct connection sequence. Always connect in the following order:
- Spojite bateriju: Connect the battery to the controller's battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -). The controller will automatically detect the battery voltage.
- Spojite solarni panel: Spojite solarni panel na PV terminale regulatora. Osigurajte ispravan polaritet.
- Spojite istosmjerno opterećenje (opcionalno): Spojite istosmjerno opterećenje na priključke opterećenja regulatora. Osigurajte ispravan polaritet.
To disconnect the system, follow the reverse order: disconnect load, then solar panel, then battery.

6. Upute za rad
The controller features an LCD display and control buttons for monitoring and configuration.
6.1 LCD zaslon
The LCD screen provides real-time information about your solar system, including:
- Status fotonaponskog sustava (PV): Ulazni voltage, current, and power from solar panels.
- BATT (Battery) Status: Baterija voltage, charging current, and state of charge.
- LOAD Status: Output current and power to the DC load.
- Sustav Voltage: Automatically detected battery system voltage (12V/24V/36V/48V).
- Indikatori grešaka: Displays fault codes or warnings if issues occur.
6.2 gumba za upravljanje
The controller has three buttons: ESC, Up/Down arrows, and SET.
- Gumb ESC: Used to exit current menu or cancel an operation.
