I bought an iSunergy MPPT solar charge controller off Amazon. So far I am not happy with it due to the lack of documentation.
As such, I need help figuring out the settings. The manual simply gives huge ranges and you are supposed to guess at a good setting. The factory said they don't give out the exact settings.
The following are what I can actually change on the controller:
Under Over discharge Voltage
Under-R Over discharge return
OVD Over Charge Voltage
OVD-R Over charge return
Float Float charge voltage
BCV Boost charge
ECV Equalizing Chage Voltage
Does "return" mean "reconnect" here????
The manual actually lists the following fields in its broad range sample settings, but with no place to put them in the actual unit:
Charge Limit Voltage
Boost Charge Return
I am in the process of building a 48V portable solar generator system. My panels and batteries have not come yet, so I am testing on a 12V flooded lead acid system that I have. The final battery bank will be 16s Lifepo4 80 Ah cells if it ever gets here.
Anybody have an idea how to set the parameters on this thing for 16s Lifepo4 as well as 12V flooded lead acid? I'd like to get it working on FLA first because they are harder to destroy than LFP batteries. That and I don't really trust it just yet.
