indicate a fault. A metered model, an RM-1 meter, or
MSView PC software can be used to determine if the
RTS is working properly.
Battery Sense Cables Issue
Error status LED: Flashing red. Battery status LEDs:
R/Y - G/Y sequencing. If a fault in the battery sense
connection (such as a short-circuit, open circuit or
loose terminal) occurs after the battery sense has been
working, the LEDs will indicate a failure. To resume
operation without battery sense, disconnect all power
to the ProStar and then reconnect. If the controller is
re-started with the failure still present, the controller
may not detect that the battery sense is connected,
and the LEDs will not indicate a fault. A
metered
model, an RM-1 meter, or MSView PC software can
be used to determine if the battery sense is working
properly.
Battery / Load High Voltage disconnect (HVD)
Error status LED: Flashing red. Battery status
LEDs: R-G sequencing. Recovery will occur at HVD
re-connect threshold. See Section 7 - Technical
Specifications for values.
High Heatsink Temperature
Error status LED: Flashing red. Battery status LEDs:
R-Y sequencing. The heatsink temperature has
exceeded safe limits. Charging will cease, and the
load is disconnected. The load will automatically
be reconnected, and charging will resume when the
heatsink cools to a safe temperature.
Settings (DIP) Switch Changed
Error status LED: Flashing red. Battery status LEDs:
R-Y-G sequencing. If a settings switch is changed
while there is power to the controller, the LEDs will
begin sequencing and the solar input will be discon-
nected. The controller must be re-started to clear the
fault and begin operation with the new settings.
Custom Settings Edit
Error status LED: Flashing red. Battery status LEDs:
R-Y-G sequencing. A value has been modified in
custom settings memory. The controller will stop
charging and indicate a fault condition. After all
settings have been modified, the controller must be
reset by removing and then restoring power to the
controller. The new programmed settings will be used
after the power reset.
Firmware Update Failure
The firmware update was not successfully pro-
grammed. The controller will not indicate the full
power-up LED sequence of G-Y-R when power to
the controller is reset. Instead, the controller will
display green, and then stop on yellow. The yellow
LED will continue to be lit and the controller will not
complete start up or begin charging. Re-try the
firmware update. The firmware must be successfully
loaded before the controller will start up.
Internal Power Supply Out of Range
Error status LED: Solid red. Battery status LEDs:
R-Y-G sequencing. The processor supply voltage
is not correct. Contact your Morningstar dealer for
service.
