INSTALLATION
Connect to Battery:
Attach the Solar Charge Controller positive (+) wire to the positive (+) battery terminal. Then connect the Solar
Charge Controller negative (-) wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
WARNING: The alligator clips MUST be placed on to the battery in the aforementioned order—wrong connections
may cause sparking or explosion.
Connect to Solar Panel:
Option 1
Strip the solar panel wires. Connect positive (+) wire from the solar panel to the positive (+) of the charge
controller and the negative (-) wire from the solar panel to the negative (-) of the charge controller. Ensure the
connections are secure.
Option 2
Some panels may include a quick connect for use with the Solar Charge Controller. If included, connect positive
to positive and negative to negative of charge controller. Ensure connections are secure.
OPERATION
The Green "Charged" light indicates a full-charged battery. When the battery reaches 14.2 V, the Solar Charge
Controller will cut out voltage thereby ensuring no overcharging. The yellow "Charging" light indicates a battery
that is being charged. When the battery reaches 13 V, the Battery Charge Controller will cut-in and begin
charging.
NOTES
The Solar Charge Controller should be placed within 5 feet of the battery in a dry well ventilated area.
•
This Solar Charge Controller can support up to 127 watts of solar power. It is not advisable to use with
•
greater wattage.
All connections should be in parallel to ensure a 12 Volt system.
•
It is normal for both lights to flicker on and off during normal operation. The Battery Charge Controller
•
should be placed within 5' of the battery in a dry, well-ventilated area. This Battery Charge Controller can
support up to 127 W and up to 8.5 A of array current. All connections should be parallel to ensure 12 V
system (positive to positive and negative to negative).
FAQ
1. How many panels can I connect to my 8.5 Amp Solar Charge Controller?
You can connect up to 127 Watts of Solar Power to the 8.5 Amp Solar Charge Controller. Panels should be
connected in parallel – positive to positive, negative to negative.
2. When will the Charged Indication light (green) light up?
The charged indication green light will light up when the battery voltage reaches 14.2 Volts and the SCC will
prevent the solar panels from overcharging the battery. It is normal for the SCC LED to light on and off as the
battery voltage cuts in and out.
GENERAL TESTING PROTOCOL
Always test outdoors under optimal sunlight
Test Solar Panel for Voltage
Connect Voltmeter to the panel separately from the charge controller and observe Open Voltage. Open Voltage
can range from 16 Volts to 24 Volts.
