5. Select Advanced Settings, then select the Multi Unit Config menu. After
entering the Multi Unit Config menu, the LCD backlight on the solar charge
controller to be configured will flash.
6. On the Multi Unit Config menu, select Dev Number and set it to a number
other than 00. Press Enter to confirm the new device number.
The device number can be set to any number between 01 and 31. For the
first solar charge controller, 01 is recommended. If you have two charge
controllers, simply set them to 01 and 02.
7. Press Exit until the Select Device menu is displayed.
The solar charge controller now appears as MPPT60 01 on the menu.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 7 for the next solar charge controller.
When you have set the device number for all solar charge controllers, you
can configure Connections and Charger Settings for the first solar charge
controller.
To configure Connections and Charger Settings for the first solar charge
controller:
1. On the Select Device Menu, select “MPPT60 01.”
2. Navigate to the Multi Unit Config menu and select Connections.
On the Connections menu, you can configure PV In (PV input) and DC Conn
(DC output, or the battery bank). If the system has only one battery bank,
leave DC Conn at the default setting. The PV In setting allows you to
differentiate which array is going to which solar charge controller. This setting
is used for status reporting only, not for any internal controls. Setting PV In to
a non-default value is optional.
3. Press Exit twice to leave the Connections menu and Multi Unit Config menu.
4. From the Advanced Settings menu, select Charger Settings.
5. Set the Battery Type, Battery Capacity, and any other charger settings
required for your system.
While in the Charger menu, ensure that the Nominal Battery Voltage is set
correctly (it is shown as Batt Voltage and appears as the last item on the
menu). If you select “Custom” for your Battery Type, you can further
configure the Bulk, Absorption, Float and other settings for the charge cycle.
The first unit should now be configured properly for your system.
If multiple units are installed, you can now copy the first unit’s configuration
over to other units.
To copy the solar charge controller setup to another unit:
1. On the SCP, press Exit to leave the Advanced Settings menu and view the
Select Device menu.
2. On the Select Device Menu, select the next solar charge controller for
configuration.
3. On the Advanced Settings menu, select Copy From, then select the solar
charge controller you want to copy from. You should select the unit with the
device number that matches the first unit you configured.
