7.1 Configuring the Charge Controller
Configure the charge controller before commissioning. You can carry out the basic configuration
using the operating switch (DIL switch).
The operating mode, battery system, battery type, device address of the charge controller and a fault
diagnosis can be configured by changing the position of the DIL switch.
Assignment of the DIL Switches
The DIL switches have the following assignments:
7.1.1 Operating Mode
The operating mode is set using the "D4" DIL switch.
The following table displays the switch position for the required operating mode.
Operation with Sunny Island 3324/4248
If the charge controller is operated in the stand-alone grid system together with a
Sunny Island 3324/4248, set the DIL switch D4 to "OFF", since this Sunny Island does not
support the charge controller's type of communication.
