7. Recharging Using the PV Array

In 113.6 V		0.0 A
Out	12.5 V	0.0 A
	0.000 kW	0.0 kWH
AUX:	OFF	Sleeping

Turn the PV input breaker on. The FLEXmax 80 automatically detects the PV input voltage.

(Note: If PV voltage registers “000V” when the breaker is on, please check the polarity of the PV wires.)

The FLEXmax 80 enters a “Wakeup” stage, transitions to “Tracking” and prepares to charge the batteries by tracking the maximum power point of the solar array.

In	87.6	V	5.0 A
Out 12.5		V	32.9 A	During the FLEXmax 80’s initial tracking, the input source

				voltage (VOC) to one-half of the VOC. Within this range,

the FLEXmax 80 seeks the maximum power point. When the FLEXmax 80 goes into Re-Cal, Auto Restart, Wakeup, or RSTRT (restart) modes, among other conditions, it performs an initial tracking.
