Konexioaren urratsak:

1. Konektatu bateria: Connect the battery to the controller's battery terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -). This is the first and most critical step.
2. Karga konektatu: Connect your DC loads to the controller's load terminals. Ensure correct polarity.
3. Konektatu PV sorta: Konektatu eguzki-panelak kontrolatzailearen PV terminaletara. Ziurtatu polaritate zuzena dutela.

Garrantzitsua: For safety, circuit breaker connections are recommended for all connections.

Deskonexio urratsak:

To disconnect the system, follow the reverse order of connection:

1. Disconnect the PV Array.
2. Disconnect the Load.
3. Disconnect the Battery.

5. Funtzionamendu-argibideak

The Triron4210N controller features an intuitive LCD display and five buttons for easy operation and monitoring.

• PV/+ Button: Used to browse PV parameters or increase values during setting.
• BATT/→ Button: Used to browse battery parameters or move right during setting.
• LOAD/- Button: Used to browse load parameters or decrease values during setting.
• SET botoia: Used to enter setting mode or confirm selections.
• ESC botoia: Used to exit setting mode or return to the previous menu.

Viewing parametroak:

Press the PV/+, BATT/→, or LOAD/- buttons to cycle through the respective parameters on the LCD display. The display will show real-time values such as voltage, korrontea, potentzia eta tenperatura.

6. Battery Type Configuration

The Triron4210N supports various battery types. It is essential to correctly configure the battery type for optimal charging and discharge management.

Setting Battery Type via LCD:

1. From the main display, press the EZARTU botoia menuan sartzeko.
2. Navigate to the "Battery Type" option using the arrow buttons.
3. Sakatu EZARTU to select the battery type (e.g., Sealed, Gel, Flooded, LiFePO4, Li(NiCoMn)O2, User).
4. Sakatu EZARTU again to confirm and save your selection.

Oharra: For LiFePO4 and Li(NiCoMn)O2 batteries, the controller does not automatically identify the system voltage. You must manually select 12V or 24V for your lithium battery system.

Advanced Lithium Battery Parameters:

For detailed parameter settings for lithium batteries, optional accessories are required:

• MT50/MT52 Remote Meter
• WiFi/BLE Adapter via APP (Solar Guardian)
• PC software via RS485 interface (CC-USB-RS485-150U cable)
