PAL-ADP-50AN
——Parallel Adapter
1.Overview
The PAL-ADP-50AN is a parallel adapter for adjusting the charging current
of multiple controllers connected to the battery in parallel, which also
monitors the charging and operational status in real-time. The adapter
automatically changes the charging and operational status of the controllers
according to the battery level to prolong the controller lifetime.
Features：
Achieve the consistency of parameters for multiple controllers
Equalize charging feature to smart control the charging current of
each controller
Monitor the working status and smart control the operation quantity of
the controller
Up to 6 controllers are supported
Standard Modbus communication protocol and related PC Monitoring
Software
The 1-click setting for baud rate switch between 9600 and 115200
LED indicator for operational status
2.Structure
❶RS485 communication port 1(RJ45)
Communicate with up to 6 paralleled controllers.
Accessories(included)：
Communication cable (Model: CC-RS485-RS485-200U)
❷SET button
Press and hold the button for 5 seconds to set the communication baud rate
9600—— Red LED indicator flash 1 time
115200——Red LED indicator flash 2 times
❸Communication status indicator
Solid Green——Adapter is working.
Flash Green——Adapter is communicating.
Flash Red——Adapter’s baud rate indictor.
❹❺RS485 communication port 2/3 (RJ45)
These two ports are paralleled.

Connection for Tracer AN (50-100A) series solar controller
NOTE: Set each controller ID to be different before wiring (ID Range:1-10)
4. Power Switch Control
The PAL-ADP-50AN will shut off one of the controllers while the battery
voltage reaches the target voltage (equalize, boost, float), and the
average current is lower than 3Amps.
The PAL-ADP-50AN will turn on one of the controllers until the average
current is higher than 5Amps.
5. Charging Status Control
The PAL-ADP-50AN will check the controller charging status. While
one of the controllers turn into float charging mode, the boost charging
time of the rest controllers will change to 10 minutes.
The controller is turning into float mode directly if the total of the boost
charging time reaches 10 minutes; otherwise, it will wait until the target
time of 10 minutes.
IMPORTANT: In addition to the above rules, the boost charging recovery
time will be 120 minutes in default.
6.PC Software Operation Instruction

Add the station
Step 1
Step 2
Caution: The controller ID and device ID should be the
same.
Set the “Device ID”
Caution: Only one of the controllers’ID can be set at each time.
Follow the same procedure to set the rest of controllers.
Step3：Connect all controllers with the communication cable
Step4：Add the rest of controllers’ ID to the station (Refer to the step 2)
Step5：Monitor the operational data and status of each controller in
real-time.
Select the related controller >> start monitoring
Caution：Only one of the controllers is able to be monitored
at each time.
