Frequently asked questions

How do I set the time on the controller?

Short press until SET appears, long press to TIME, long press again to start flashing, then short press to set the correct time.

What is the maximum solar charging current for the PL40 model?

The PL40 can charge at up to 40 A.

How does the low‑voltage cutoff (discharge protection) work?

When the battery voltage drops below the preset value, the controller cuts the load; it reconnects after the voltage rises above the set threshold for a set time.
