Is there a way to get MPP Solar (1012LV) to never charge from utility, but leave utility connected to it for bypass purposes?
My scenario:
- powering computer that needs to run 24x7
- I want MPP to power it with battery until X voltage, then switch to utility (setting 12)
- utility should only be used for transfer switch purposes to power the load until solar gets the battery back to Y voltage (setting 13).
- the idea is to power as much of its run time via solar
- I can’t figure out how to stop the MPP from also charging the battery with utility at night instead of just powering the load )bypassing battery) until solar charges it
My settings: (setting 16 even says solar only charging… but doesn’t seem to actually do that)
