Voltage level for remote On/off input on Orion-Tr 48/12

Hi,

I have a 48V battery system which is charged with a SmartSolar 100/20 MPPT. A Orion-TR 48/12 is used to step-down to 12V.

I would like to use the "Load" output on the Smartsolar to control the Remote on/off on the Orion-Tr, because the "Load" output is only rated to 1A @48V.

However, the ratings of the remote on/off input on the Orion-TR are not specified anywhere.

Is the remote on/off input usable with a 48V signal?

Thank you!

@Jonathan Graesser Given the manual. has the option to connect the remote high terminal to the input batteries positive terminal, it would be ok for 48v signal.

Are you using the mppt's low volt cut, or daylight sensing to enable / disable the Orion?
