Anyone with a HQST MPPT ever see this error (13)? It's not listed in the manual, and a Google search came up empty.
I'm not sure what exactly triggered it, I was installing a new panel cut-off switch and had just disconnected one of the PV lines when I noticed it. May have already been up there, but I don't think so. No, nothing was shorted or anything like that in the process. It was raining (dark and gloomy) so there was little PV production anyway. Had to reboot (power down) the controller to clear it, and all is well again. Just curious as to what it is and why it's not documented.
While I like HQST equipment for the price and their equipment has been working well for me (I have three 60A controllers), their CS has gone down hill. About a year ago, I would get answers to questions quickly. Recently though, they have not responded to any of my inquiries. One was asking about renaming the controllers (probably not possible) because two are located fairly close together and it's difficult to know which is which when using the app, but they never responded. I've also asked about this error too, but am not holding my breath.
