Protection Behavior
When PV short circuit occurs, the controller will stop charging. 
Clear it to resume normal operation.
The controller will limit the battery charging current to the 
maximum battery current rating. Therefore, an over-sized solar 
array will not operate at peak power. 
If the current exceeds the maximum load current rating of 21A, 
the controller will disconnect the load. Overloading must be 
cleared up by reducing the load and restarting the controller. 
If the temperature of the controller heat sink exceeds 65℃, the 
controller will automatically start reducing the charging current 
and shut down when temperature exceeds 80℃.  
The controller will not operate if the PV wires are switched. Wire 
them correctly to resume normal controller operation. 
The controller will not operate if the battery wires are switched. Wire 
them correctly to resume normal controller operation. 
Fully protected against the load wiring short-circuit. Once the 
load short (more than quadruple rate current), the load short 
protection will start automatically. After 5 automatic load 
reconnect attempts, the faults must be cleared by restarting the 
controller.
