Tell them you were sold two 80 panels and a GCR 1000M regulator. George, my advise would be to google for BP Solar Australia and give them a call or email. How well do you know these regulators? I don't know this model, do they have a seperate battery sense terminal? If this wire was missing it might explain this fault condition. Yes I know 80w at 19v is less than 5 amps, but 80 BP solar panels definately put out more than 5 amps. Some staff recon they have seen 6 amps out of these panels. I have seen plenty of these putting out about 5.5 amps. Monday, at 23:10Mainey, The Telstra blue/ panels are 80w BP Solar panels. We have attempted to delineate the detailed inter- relationships between the renin- aldosterone and the vasopressin systems by a metabolically controlled study.Ģ cable connections on Left (+) & (-) Panel connection 2 cable connections in Centre (+) & (-) Battery connection 2 cable connections on Right (+) & (-) Accessories (fridge etc) Separate Earth is not required when used with (-) grounded battery as all 'accessories' are connected to (-) battery terminal. Tuesday, at 08:02Peter In this model (Steca PR series) grounding is not required when used as a stand alone solar system with only the (-) battery terminal being grounded at the body, as is normal and usual. If you are attempting to do your own wiring then re read the installation manual - several times. Get this checked out by someone who knows these systems. If your battery or solar panels have their -ve sides grounded then you loose all current monitoring in the regulator. This is generally the one connected to the load.

You can only connect one of the -ve terminals to the frame (earth) of your van. These regulators were originally designed for telephone systems with +ve earth systems so all the circuitry has the +ve sides of it connected together. All of their regulators that I have come across have 3 negative terminals on them. Tuesday, at 01:22Further to my previous, I note further down that your controller was manufactured by Steca.

If you find no obvious problems then it's a fault with-in the LCD display. First I would check all the cabling from the Solar panels right to the battery with a 'multimeter' so see where the voltage varies. Monday, at 19:56George, the 'E07' message indicates low battery voltage.Īs the SOC 'graphics' no longer exists (has gone) I believe it's a malfunction with-in the LCD display, because you say you do have 15v - 16v at the battery, indicating Solar charge is definitely being delivered to the batteries, but no LCD display is showing. I also have a BM-1 Battery monitor connected to the batteries. Does anyone have any experience with this type of system. I have disconnected the batteries from the solar charging system because I am worried that the batteries are being over charged.
