WARNING: You must get the battery charging voltages from the battery
manufacturer and it is VERY important you do this and do not just leave it as
default settings as it is likely this will undercharge and slowly destroy your
batteries
WARNING: The Clock is a 24 hr clock. Setting it off by 12hrs will cause it to
reset to a new day at Noon.
How do I do a
HARDWARE factory
restore?
*Warning this will erase ALL settings.
*Turn the PV breaker and Battery breaker off (What you don’t have a breaker?
Get one asap) and make sure the display has gone dark
Do a hardware factory restore. There are 4 sets of jumpers directly above the
blue terminal block. For the purpose of this we will call the left most jumper
JP1 and the right most JP4 (actually labeled "Boot")
 Step 1- Turn the PV and Battery power off to the Classic and remove
the front cover
 Step 2- Locate the 2 jumpers JP1 and BOOT (JP4). Take the actual
jumpers and keep them in your hand
 Step 3- Turn the Battery power on to the classic
 Step 4- within 1 minute place jumper JP4 on its two pins and then place
jumper JP1 on its two pins. at this point the 3 leds on the top of the
circuit board should flash back and forth for about 60 seconds.
 Step 5- After the flashing stops power down the classic and remove JP1
and JP4 and stow them back on a single pin like they were.
 Step 6- Put the front cover on and power up the Classic. If you have
custom settings you will need to use your MNGP or Local app and
reset the battery voltage, set points and any AUX functions that were in
use will need to be re-selected and programmed.
What is a “VMM”?
*It has become industry slang for our factory restore “Vulcan Mind Meld”
from the 2 fingers needed to push the arrows
Classic will not power
on. No Fans or life on
power up.
*Check for reverse polarity on the Battery positive and negative terminals on
the blue terminal block
*Check for voltage on the Battery positive and negative terminals on the blue
terminal block, if less than 10v charge the battery or find the bad connection
Classic Display is blank
but the Classic is on
*Check that the blue display cable is plugged into the top jack on the main
circuit board and the display
*Try the middle jack on the circuit board
*Try a different 4 conductor phone cable
Classic says “Resting”
but the sun is out
*Resting indicates a lack of power available to the Classic. Verify you have
voltage on the display under the “IN” that is at least 130% of the actual battery
voltage at that time
