6. Opsætning og installation

Follow these steps for proper installation of the solar charge controller. Ensure all power sources are disconnected before beginning.

6.1. Ledningsmetode

Tilslut komponenterne i følgende rækkefølge for at undgå skader:

1. Tilslut batteriet: Connect the battery to the controller's battery terminals (positive to positive, negative to negative). The controller will automatically detect the battery voltage.
2. Tilslut solpanelet: Connect the solar panel to the controller's solar panel terminals (positive to positive, negative to negative).
3. Tilslut DC-belastningen: Connect the DC load to the controller's load terminals (positive to positive, negative to negative).

Vigtig: Tilslut altid batteriet først, derefter solpanelet og til sidst belastningen. Frakobl i omvendt rækkefølge.
