Trying to connect up a MPPT Solar Charge Controller.

mppt-6.jpgmppt-5.jpgmppt-2.jpgI am new to this forum, so I hope I am in the right place.

I live in a retirement village in Western Australia.

I have a caravan with 4 solar panels on the roof.

I have the Tracer5415AN (50amp) charge controller.

I have the battery as shown in the attached jpg.

I have downloaded the software ‘Solar station monitor’ onto my windows 10 PC, as shown in the attached jpg. I have the RJ45 to USB cable.

Could anybody assist me in understanding what I have to do to get this system up and running. (I think I need to understand the ‘Lithium’ and ‘USE’ side of things. It says in the instruction book, (Cloud Platform Manual) but that did not get me anywhere.

Thanks, RicoAust.mppt-1.jpg

Since this is a Victron forum, not really.

What you Use it is probably a user profile. You would most likely use that if the preset lithium profile does not fit in with the battery recommended charge and float voltages.
