SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSE ITEMS TO EXAMINE OR CORRECT
Charge OFF at high
ambient temperature System temporarily shuts down due to
high heat sink temperature Improve ventilation or reduce PV power. Sufficient ventilation to prevent over
temperature shut down will improve reliability. See Technical Bulletin #100206.
When charger turns
on, output current
displays but the
value seems
incorrect Output current display selection set for
wrong IPN network address
Bat– connected to PV– outside charge
controller
Configure display IPN network address DIP switch to read desired output current.
PV- & BAT- must be separate external to the unit for proper operation and cannot
connect to a common location. External connection prevents proper operation of
internal shunts and current measurement system.
Voltage or current
value displayed
seems to be stuck
and does not change Display or charge controller IPN network
addressed has changed
Display not communicating with charge
controller
Configure display IPN network address DIP switch to properly read output current
of a charger present on the IPN network
