3. Tatūnga me te Tāuta
Follow these steps for proper installation of your Genasun GV-5-Pb-12V solar charge controller.
3.1 Wiring Hoahoa

This diagram illustrates the correct connection sequence for your solar panel, battery, and optional DC load. Ensure positive (+) and negative (-) terminals are correctly matched.
3.2 Nga Waahi Hononga
- Tūhono te Pūhiko: First, connect the battery to the charge controller. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative). The controller will power on and display the battery voltage.
- Tīpako Momo Pūhiko: If your controller has a battery type selection feature, press and hold the leftmost button until the battery type indicator flashes. Select the appropriate battery type (e.g., Lead-Acid, AGM, Gel). For Lead-Acid batteries, selecting AGM is often suitable.
- Honoa te Paewhiri Solar: Next, connect the solar panel to the charge controller. Ensure correct polarity. The controller will begin charging the battery if sufficient solar power is available.
- Honoa te Utaina DC (Whiringa): If using the optional DC load output, connect your DC load (e.g., lights, fan) to the LOAD terminals. The controller's Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) feature will protect the battery from over-discharge.
3.3 Aratohu Whakaaturanga Whakaaturanga
4. Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere
Once correctly installed, the Genasun GV-5-Pb-12V operates automatically. The multicolor LED provides status indications:
- LED Kakariki: Indicates normal operation and charging status.
- LED Whero: Indicates an error or fault condition. Refer to the troubleshooting section for details.
- Pūhiko Voltage Whakaatu: The integrated display shows the current battery voltage, allowing you to monitor the charge level.
The MPPT technology continuously tracks the maximum power point of your solar array to ensure optimal charging efficiency, even in varying light conditions.
5. Tiaki
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Genasun GV-5-Pb-12V solar charge controller, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Tirotiro auau: Tirohia ngā hononga waea katoa i ia wā, i ia wā, kia tino piri, kia kore ai hoki e waikura.
- Te horoi: Keep the controller clean and free from dust, dirt, and debris. Use a dry cloth for cleaning. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Whakahau: Ensure the area around the controller is well-ventilated to prevent overheating.
- Hauora Pūhiko: Regularly check your battery's condition as per the battery manufacturer's recommendations.
6. Te Raru
If you encounter issues with your Genasun GV-5-Pb-12V, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Karekau he utu:
- Check all solar panel connections for correct polarity and secure fit.
- Me mohio kei te whiwhi te panui solar i te ra tika.
- Verify the battery is properly connected and has sufficient voltage (above the minimum operating voltagme).
- Tohu LED Whero:
- A red LED typically indicates a fault. Check for reverse polarity on either the solar panel or battery connections.
- Me whakarite te voltage is within the acceptable range for the controller.
- Check for short circuits on the load output.
- Uta Kaore i te Mahi:
- Check connections to the DC load output.
- Manatokohia te voltagkei runga ake a e i te Rōrahi Ititage Disconnect (LVD) threshold. The controller will automatically reconnect the load once the battery voltage whakaora ana.
- Ensure the load current does not exceed 5A.
