4.1. Peringatan Penting Sebelum Pemasangan
- Always connect the battery first to the controller before connecting the solar panel array. Ensure the battery voltage is sufficient for the controller to recognize the correct system voltage.
- NEVER connect the solar panel array to the controller without a battery connected.
- DO NOT connect any Inverter, wind turbine, alternator, or external charger directly to the charge controller. Inverters should be connected directly to the battery bank.
- Ensure the solar input voltage is at least 3V higher than the battery voltage and that the total input power is within the specified range.
- Ensure all connections to and from the controller are tight to prevent loose connections and potential hazards.
- DO NOT allow the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery to touch each other.
