The controller is protected against reversed polarity input i.e. if your
solar panel’s 2-pin SAE connector does not match and you connected
it to the controller, it will not work and no damage will occur.
First connect the O-27 to your solar panel’s SAE connector and then
connect it to the OptiMate Solar DUO controller’s input connector.
