Safety Precautions
Please read the following before using:
1. All electrical work must be done in accordance with local, and/or international
electrical codes.
2. Before installing or using this device, read all instructions and cautionary
marking located in (or on) this guide, the controller, the batteries, PV (Photovol-
taic) array and any other device used.
3. To reduce the risk of short-circuits, use insulated tools when installing or working
with the inverter, the controller, the batteries, or any DC source (e.g., PV).
4. Remove all jewelry. This will greatly reduce the chance of accidental exposure to
live circuits.
5. The controller contains more than one live circuit (batteries and PV array).
Power may be present at more than one source.
6. This product contains no user serviceable parts. Do not attempt to repair this
unit unless fully qualied.

1. Connect the negative electrode of the battery to the terminal for the negative
electrode of the battery on the BSP-360.
2. Connect the positive electrode of the battery to the terminal for the positive
electrode of the battery on the BSP-360.
3. After the battery is well connected to the BSP-360, the PWR LED will be ON
and System LED will slowly blink, and Fault LED will slowly blink for PV
not connected.
The BSP-360 accepts the 24V DC battery system. Please pay
attention to the battery characteristics and also refer to the section
-- Recommended Settings for Different Batteries in the Quick
Installation Guide.
Note
Be noted for the thickness of electric wire and please refer to the
section -- Recommended Use of the Connected Wires in the
Quick Installation Guide.
The default LVD (Low Voltage Disconnection) is set at 22.2V
DC; we suggest charge the voltage of battery to 23.5V DC or
above for the BSP-360.
Check the total power consumption of your connected network
device before installation. Improper battery capacity could shorten
the battery life or make your network device lack of power supply.
Note
Please link PLANET download center and download BSP-
360-PV&BAT_calculation. The calculation list can help you to
select solar panel and battery.

1. Connect the negative electrode of the PV panel to the terminal for the negative
electrode of the PV panel on the BSP-360.
2. Connect the positive electrode of the PV panel to the terminal for the positive
electrode of the PV panel on the BSP-360.
3. After the PV is well connected to the BSP-360 and providing 24V or above
voltage, the System LED will blink fast for battery charge if the battery is not
full. And Fault LED will turn off.
Note
Be noted for the thickness of electric wire and please refer to the
section -- Recommended Use of the Connected Wires in the
Quick Installation Guide.
Check the total power consumption of your device and the
sunshine duration of your area from the weather bureau for a
proper PV. Improper PV could shorten the battery life or provide
insufficient power to the BSP-360.
The BSP-360 supports a maximum of 45V DC input.

1. Connect the PoE devices to ports 1~4 on the BSP-360.
2. Check the PoE-in-Use LED. If the network devices such as PoE camera and PoE
wireless AP are powered, the PoE-in-use LED will turn ON and Link/Act LED
will blink for a successful connection or data receiving.
Note
Please use Cat5/5e or above cable and the maximum distance
should within 100 meters.
If the Network devices are installed outdoors, please consider to
install a lightening arrestor to protect the network device and the
BSP-360.

Step 5. Wiring the DC Outputs
Please follow the steps below to insert the power wires for DC power required
equipment.
1. Please nd the terminal block connector with two DC power outputs shown
below:

2. Insert the Positive and Negative DC wires into the V+ and V- terminals, respec-
tively; Terminals 1 and 3 for Power 1, and Terminals 2 and 4 for Power 2.
3. Connect the other points of DC power wires to the power devices. Tighten the
wire-clamp screws for preventing the wires from loosening.

4. Install the terminal block on the BSP-360.
Note
The voltage of DC out is based on the battery voltage and the
maximum DC out from the BSP-360 is 24VDC, 1A.
The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range
from 14 to 24 AWG.
The external device should also be grounded properly.
Please ensure the output voltage is correct for remote device.
Otherwise, it will damage your remote device.
Step 6. Connect to PC

5. Web Management
The following shows how to start up the Web Management of the BSP-360. Note
the BSP-360 is congured through an Ethernet connection. Please make sure the
manager PC must be set to the same IP subnet address.
For example, the default IP address of the BSP-360 is 192.168.0.100, then the
manager PC should be set to 192.168.0.x (where x is a number between 1 and
254, except 100), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

Step 3. After entering the password, the main screen appears. The above banner
shows the information of DC IN, Battery and Power Consumption.
Step 4. The Switch Menu on the left of the Web page lets you access all the
functions and status the BSP-360 provides.
Now, you can use the Web management interface to continue the Switch
management. Please refer to the user manual for more understanding.
