Introduction
Important: If PV arrays are used with diversion control, it may be necessary to install diodes to prevent
Important: If using multiple RE sources, use diodes/isolation to prevent backfeed.
CAUTION: Damage to Batteries
Current draw of the diversion load is very important. Problems may arise from operating with a load that is too small or too large. A diversion load that is too small will not be able to absorb all the excess power from the current source once the batteries are full allowing batteries to overcharge.
Diversion loads in excess of the controller’s rating are capable of absorbing more power than the

When used as a DC load controller, the settings of the LVR and LVD are controlled by two rotary potentiometers (also called pots) on the circuit board.
The scale on the adjustment potentiometers differ from the scale used for other functions. A decal with the appropriate adjustment scale is included with the
