2. Safety Tips
Review this manual thoroughly before attempting installation.
Beware of any nearby electrical equipment that may interfere with installing this device.
Solar panels can generate high voltages and currents, make sure your solar panels are
completely covered from sunlight during installation. It is recommended that installation be
performed by a qualified electrician.
Connecting wires to this device can generate sparks, please wear proper insulation gear while
installing this device.
To avoid damage to the battery or controller, use proper fuses in wiring. Please do not hesitate to
contact the professions if you need help with fuse sizing.
Always keep children away from this device.
Be certain to use the correct gauge of wire, see below for a table of recommended wire size for
various current loads.

3. Product Features
Thank you for choosing our products. This MPPT solar charge controller is a device for solar charge
regulation and direct current output load control. This device is mainly used in small and medium
sized off-grid solar power systems.
These MPPT charge controllers have features as follows:
By continuously checking solar panel power output changes, the controllers employ multiple
MPPT charge algorithms in combination to boost charging efficiency in different weather and
temperature conditions.
Built-in buffer, allows max 25% exceeding rated power input.
Charging modes available for most common deep-cycle battery types in the market, including
AGM (sealed lead acid batteries), GEL, Flooded, and Lithium.
Allows mobile phone APP operation for monitoring and parameters settings, with connection of
external blue tooth communication module (optional accessory, not in the standard package
list).
Auto recognition of 12V/24V battery system voltage by M2440N model; auto recognition of
12V/24V/36V/48V battery system voltage by M4860N model. Lithium battery excluded from this
feature.
Supports recording of system running data including power generated and power utilized for up
to 300 days, compatible with monitoring App through IOS and Android.
Provides multiple load control mode options for light based, time based and manually adjusted
scenarios. Low no-load loss.
Industrial grade design with reverse polarity protection for solar panels, battery and load.

During installation of your MPPT controller, please follow the order of connection below:
1. Connect the positive battery wire followed by the negative battery wire.
2. Make sure your solar panels are fully covered to prevent electrical shock.
Connect the positive solar array output wire followed by the negative solar array output wire.
3. Connect DC load wires to the DC load output (if applicable).
4. Connect the external temperature sensor to its terminal shown above.
5. Connect the mobile application module to the communication port (if applicable).
