Battery management function
According to input current and voltage, battery capacity, load status and busbar voltage, the controller performs battery management to ensure the efficient charge and discharge of the battery, so as to prolong the battery lifetime and make efficient use of the solar energy. In the auto-state, the controller carries out automatic control according to the preset parameters and logic in order to make full use the energy input from the array.
In battery FC mode, the busbar voltage is controlled within ±0.6V of the preset FC point.
In battery BC mode, the busbar voltage is controlled within -1.2V of the preset BC point.
If controller uses PWM mode, the conditions for FC/BC transition are as follows:
In battery FC state, the controller will control the battery to enter BC mode when the FC voltage decreases to a point lower than the preset “FC to BC voltage” and BC interval has been more than 1 hour.
In battery BC state, the controller will control the battery to enter FC mode when the B C voltage is -1.2V higher than the preset BC voltage and BC has kept for more than 2 hours, or when BC time has reached the maximum time limit.
If controller uses ON/OFF mode, controller will manage array input based on the default ON/OFF logic.
In the manual state, you can control the On/Off of the photovoltaic panels and connection/disconnection of loads through the operation panel or through the host.

Note: 1. The positive electrode of the busbar of the controller is connected to the grounding point of the controller housing at factory, users need to check it . 2. You should put the cables through the cable entry holes at the bottom, and then crimp the cable tap. The positive busbar uses OT lugs for connection. For Negative electrodes, you can either use H-shape terminals, or crimp-connect after peeling off the insulating coating. 3. The load cable is provided by the equipment that uses power. 4. Make sure that all MCBs and fuses are disconnected before the cable connection. 5. Colors of the cables can be adjusted on site according to actual situation.
2.2.4 Sealing Cable Entry Holes For outdoor controllers, users should seal the cable entry holes after the installation. The procedures are as follows:
For used holes, tighten them with PG caps.
For holes with a small cable or with several cables, block them with caps and seal them with waterproof mud (accessory).
For unused holes, block them with cables and seal them with waterproof mud.

Figure 2-5 First information screen
Check the alarm status of the monitoring module. When the red and yellow indicators on the monitoring module are off, it means that everything is normal. After the startup, the red indicator and the yellow indicator of the monitoring module might be on. Users may remove the alarms according to Table 1-3. When the checks are normal, please switch on the input MCB of the photovoltaic array. 2. Load polarity and connection check Check that the connection of the load cables, the MCB capacity of the load is proper, and the polarities of the load are correct. After making sure that everything is okay, go on to the next step. 3. Battery busbar voltage measurement Use a multimeter to measure the battery busbar voltage. If the busbar voltage is within the normal voltage (48V - 55V), switch on one load MCB. Check that the battery busbar voltage is within the normal range after the load starts up and works normally. If the battery busbar voltage is close to 47V, do not switch on the next load MCB until the batteries are properly charged. Repeat the operation until all the loads are powered on and work normally. 4. Parameter setting Set the significant parameters according to the parameter card which is delivered with the controller. Enter the corresponding operation interface and enter the password to set the parameter, see 3.4 Setting Parameters. 1) Battery parameter setting Set the battery capacity according to the total capacity of the batteries actually configured, and set busbar overvoltage alarm point, busbar undervoltage alarm point and busbar undervoltage protection point in accordance with the battery features. If the controller is configured with battery temperature sensor, users need to set the battery overtemperature alarm point and battery overtemperature protection point. If not, users do not need to set these parameters. 2) Set system control method The controller provides two photovoltaic array control methods: PWM method and ON/OFF method. Users select control method according to their need. PWM method is recommended. 3) Local address: 4 (default). Notes: Controller local address should be setup the same as each other in parallel connection. 4) Default protocol: Master-Slave protocol.
