On the back of the MPPT Control, there is an RJ45 (or RJ12 or RJ11) port. What is it for?
Thanks.

Hi, when you buy an MPPT Control, it comes with a 4-paged manual which explains what the port is for. This is what the manual states on page 1.
"Power cable with inline fuse
Wiring the supplied power cable is only necessary when the used MPPT is an MPPT 75/50, 100/50 or 150/35, and its part number starts with SCC01. These earlier versions shut down at night. In this case, use the fused power cable to power the MPPT Control straight from the battery. This way, the MPPT Control stays powered while the MPPT is off, and the last received status, history and settings of the MPPT can be viewed when the sun is down.
Wiring this power cable is not necessary for all other models, neither for the SCC02 or later versions of the three mentioned models."
Additional resources still need to be added for this topic
