• Selecció del tipus de bateria: Premeu el botó BATT+/- button for 5 seconds to enter the battery type interface. Use the LOAD+/- buttons to choose the battery type (Sealed, Gel, Flooded, User). Press SET per confirmar.
• Battery Capacity Setting: From the battery type interface, press BATT+/- to access the battery capacity setting. Use LOAD+/- to adjust the capacity (Ah). Press SET per confirmar.
• Load Working Mode: Premeu el botó SET button for 5 seconds to enter the load working mode interface. Use LOAD+/- to select the desired mode (e.g., Manual Control, Light ON/OFF, Light ON+Timer, Time Control). Press SET per confirmar.
• LCD Cycle Time: Premeu el botó SET button for 5 seconds to enter the setting interface. Press BATT+/- twice for the LCD cycle time interface. Use LOAD+/- to set the cycle time. Press SET per confirmar.

6. Manteniment

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your solar charge controller. Perform the following checks periodically:

• Inspect all wiring and connections for loose connections, corrosion, or damage. Tighten as necessary.
• Clean the controller's exterior with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure ventilation openings are clear.
• Check battery terminals for corrosion and clean if necessary.
• Monitoritzeu la pantalla LCD per detectar qualsevol codi d'error o lectures inusuals.
• Ensure the temperature sensor is securely attached to the battery for accurate temperature compensation.

7. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your EPEVER MPPT Solar Charge Controller, refer to the LED indicator table (Figure 6) for initial diagnosis. Common issues and their solutions include:

• Sense pantalla/alimentació: Comproveu les connexions de la bateria i assegureu-vos que el volum de la bateriatage es troba dins del rang de funcionament.
• Sense càrrega: Verify solar panel connections and ensure sufficient sunlight. Check PV voltage a la pantalla.
• La càrrega no funciona: Check load connections, ensure the load is not overloaded or short-circuited. Verify load working mode settings.
• Battery Over-Discharged: The battery indicator may show red. This indicates the battery voltage is too low. Disconnect the load and charge the battery.
• Volum del sistematage Error: If using a lithium battery, ensure the correct system voltage (12V or 24V) is manually selected, as lithium batteries do not auto-identify system voltage.
