Configurazione e installazione
Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your solar tracking system. Follow these steps carefully.
1. Disimballaggio e ispezione
- Disimballare con cura tutti i componenti dall'imballaggio.
- Verify that all parts are present and undamaged. Refer to the packing list for a complete inventory.
- Contact your supplier immediately if any parts are missing or damaged.
2. Montaggio del controller
Mount the controller unit in a secure, weather-protected location, close to the solar panel array and power source. Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid direct sunlight exposure to the controller itself.

- Use appropriate screws and anchors for the mounting surface.
- Ensure the controller is mounted level to prevent inaccurate sensor readings.
3. Collegamenti elettrici
All wiring should be performed by a qualified technician. Ensure power is disconnected before making any connections.

- Potenza in ingresso: Connect the DC power supply (10-28V) to the designated power terminals. Observe correct polarity. The maximum current is 15A.
- Collegamenti motore: Connect the azimuth (East/West) and elevation (North/South) motors to their respective terminals. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with the product for specific motor terminal assignments.
- Sensore di luce: Connect the external light sensor cable to its dedicated port. Position the light sensor on the solar panel array so it accurately detects sunlight from all directions without obstruction.
Ensure all cable glands are tightened to maintain the weather resistance of the unit.
Istruzioni per l'uso
Once installed and powered, the controller will begin its automatic tracking sequence. The display provides real-time status information.
1. Accensione iniziale
- After connecting power, the controller display will illuminate.
- The system will perform an initial calibration or seek the sun's position.
2. Pulsanti di controllo

- IMPOSTATO: Used to enter configuration mode or confirm settings.
- N (North): Manually moves the panel towards North (elevation).
- S (South): Manually moves the panel towards South (elevation).
- E (East): Manually moves the panel towards East (azimuth).
- W (West): Manually moves the panel towards West (azimuth).
- USCIRE: Exits configuration mode or stops manual movement.
3. Monitoraggio automatico
In normal operation, the controller automatically adjusts the solar panel's position based on the light sensor's input. The system continuously seeks the brightest point to optimize solar energy collection.
- The controller will make small adjustments periodically to follow the sun's path.
- During cloudy conditions, the system may remain stationary until sufficient sunlight is detected.
4. Azionamento manuale
The N, S, E, W buttons can be used to manually adjust the panel's position. Pressing any of these buttons will temporarily override automatic tracking. Press ESENTATO to return to automatic tracking mode.
Manutenzione
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficiency of your solar tracking system.
- Pulizia: Periodically clean the light sensor dome to remove dust, dirt, or debris that may obstruct light detection. Use a soft, damp stoffa.
- Ispezione dei cavi: Annually inspect all cables and connections for wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure all cable glands are securely tightened.
- Controllo del motore: Listen for unusual noises from the motors during operation. Ensure the mechanical components of the tracking system move freely without obstruction.
- Alloggiamento del controller: Keep the controller housing clean and free from excessive dust or moisture.
Risoluzione dei problemi
Per i problemi più comuni e le possibili soluzioni, fare riferimento alla tabella seguente.
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
|---|---|---|
| Il display del controller è spento. | Nessuna alimentazione o cablaggio errato. | Check power connections and ensure DC input voltage is within 10-28V. Verify polarity. |
| Solar panel not tracking the sun. | Light sensor obstructed or faulty; motor connection issue; system in manual mode. | Clean the light sensor. Check motor wiring. Press QUIT to ensure automatic mode is active. |
| Panel moves erratically. | Light sensor dirty or damaged; strong winds affecting sensor. | Clean or inspect the light sensor. Ensure the sensor is securely mounted. |
| Motors not responding to manual commands. | Motor wiring issue; motor fault. | Check motor connections. Test motors independently if possible. |
