WARNING: GENERAL HAZARD

General Information
6(06/2016)
General Information
The next-generation OutBack Mate Micro remote display unit (for the OutBack FLEXmax 30/40 Series Charge Controller) is a
display device that supports both the latest communication protocol and the voltage technology standard of solar controllers.
The OutBack Mate Micro monitors the operational data and working status of the connected charge controller in real-time. Via the
six navigation keys on the OutBack Mate Micro, the user can oversee and modify the charge and discharge control parameters, set
device parameters, and restore the OutBack Mate Micro to its factory default settings.
Features
The OutBack Mate Micro features include:
» Automatic identication and display of the type, model, and relevant parameters of the charge controller.
» Real-time display of operational data and working status of the connected devices in digital, graphic, and textual forms
on a large multifunctional LCD screen.
» Six navigation/function keys.
» Data and power ow on the same lead, eliminating the need for external power.
» Real-time data monitoring and remote load switchover of the controllers, and data browse and modication of device
parameters, charge control parameters and load control parameters.
» Alarm information is displayed via the LCD screen with an accompanying audible alarm.
» Longer communication distance based on RS485.
The OutBack Mate Micro is only compatible with the FLEXmax 30/40 Series Charge Controller. Do not
install the OutBack Mate Micro with any other charge controller.

Light On/O
Mode Function
Light On Voltage
(Night Threshold)
When the input voltage of the solar module is lower than the Light On voltage, the load output is turned
on automatically, given that the battery capacity is sucient and there are no abnormal conditions.
Light O Voltage
(Day Threshold)
When the input voltage of the solar module is higher than the Light O voltage, the load ouput is
automatically turned o.
Delay Time During this period, if the light signal voltage continues to match the Light On/O voltage, it will carry out
any corresponding actions (Adjustment Range: 0~99min).
Light On+ Timer
Mode Function Whenever the working time
is set to 0, there will not be
a working period. The real
working time of T2 depends
upon the Night Time and the
length of T1 and T2.
Working Time 1(T1) The working period of the load after the light control turns on the load.
Working Time 2 (T2) The working period of the load before the light controls turns o the load.
Night Time Total calculated night time of the controller.

Time Control
Mode Function
Working Time 1 is the
compulsory working time for
the load, while Working Time
2 is optional.
Working Time 1(T1) The On/O time of the load is controlled through the real-time clock
mode.
Working Time 2 (T2) Working Time 2 provides a dual timer control function of the load.
Device Parameters
Parameter Denition
Ver The version of the charge controller’s rmware and hardware.
ID The charge controller’s ID number.
Bklight How long the backlight on the charge controller will stay on without user interaction (seconds).
Month-Day-Year H:M:S The internal clock of the charge controller.
