Figure 6: Multi-unit Parallel Wiring (without Battery)
  • In parallel applications, the PV side and load side of each controller must be independent.
  • In the same parallel system, the product model must be the same, but the ID must be different.
  • Parallel communication cable must be connected between parallel units, and the parallel communication ports of the first and last controllers need to be connected to the terminal resistor.
  • Communication cable (CC-RJ45-RJ45-120) and terminal resistor (RJ45-CAN-R120) are optional.
  • The parallel communication cables do not cross with the PV, battery input cables or AC output cables, otherwise the parallel communication may be interfered.

4.4 Charge Enable Terminal

The 'Charge Enable Terminal' is a standard accessory. When parameters 'CPE (COM Port Enable)' and 'ROT (Remote ON/OFF Terminal)' are set to ON, you can control PV charging by plugging or removing the 'Charge enable terminal'. When set to OFF, the PV of the device is valid for charging by default, and 'Charge enable terminal' cannot control PV charging or not. Users can maintain or replace battery by unplugging this terminal, and without changing PV connection, more simple and convenient. Battery (with dry contact output) can also control PV charging/discharging.
