Insomnia – This when enabled, will keep the Classic from going to Resting. This is intended for hydro mode
only where you may need time to open water valves and do not want to wait for the Classic to wake up.
LED-MODE – This selection lets you pick the function of the 6 visible LED’s on a standard Classic.
LMX – LoMax, This enables the Classic to track the input voltage all the way down to Battery voltage. When
disabled the Classic will stop tracking the input around 5 volts above the battery voltage. When the input voltage
is within a couple volts of the battery voltage the inductors can “Sing” this is usually not very loud and will do
no harm.
Local App – Monitoring software included with the Classic for monitoring over the Local Network or Internet.
MNGP – Midnite Graphical interface Panel. This is the graphical display included with the standard Classic
controller.
MNLP – MidNite LED interface Panel. This is the LED display that comes standard with the Classic Lite.
Mode – This menu lets you turn the charging ability of the controller On / Off as well as lets you select the DC
input source. See page 30 for info on the Mode menu.
Mod Bus – a standard protocol used for communications. We have published our protocol to allow users to in-
terface with the Classic. See page 78 for our Mod Bus protocol.
My MidNite – Web based monitoring for the Classic. (Not available yet)
NiteLog – When enabled allows the Classic to log data in the evening when the Classic is Resting.
PV Shading – This indicates the Maximum power point voltage is less than half the open circuit voltage.
Pwr Save – Allows you to adjust the time the Backlight stays on.
Resting – The Classic is not charging the battery due to low light. For reasons Resting will appear please see
page 30.
Shade – When enabled the Classic will show PV Shading on the display when the Maximum power point volt-
age is less than half the open circuit voltage.
T-Comp – Temperature compensation using a temperature sensor to measure the ambient temperature of the
battery bank and will adjust the voltage set points up or down accordingly to ensure a full battery. There are 3
parameters to set Minimum and Maximum adjusted voltage as well as volts per degree C per Cell. Typically this
is -.05 mV but please consult your battery manufacturer. See page 16 for Temperature compensation info.
Tweaks – This menu has all the advanced adjustments for the Classic. For example: Voltage off set adjustments
etc.
VBatt – Battery voltage, measured at the battery terminals of the Classic.
VOC – Open Circuit Voltage, unloaded voltage measurement.
Vpv – Input voltage, measured at the input terminals of the Classic.
