Mounting Location
zInstall Renogy ONE on a vertical surface indoors protected from direct sunlight, high temperature,
and water. Make sure there is good ventilation.
zMounting Renogy ONE requires installation holes. Make sure that you can drill holes on the
mounting position.
zTo ensure quality wireless communication for Renogy ONE, keep it away from metal objects at a
minimum distance of 200 mm or 7.9 inches.
zIf the included 12V power cable is not long enough for connecting Renogy ONE to your DC power
supply, re-select a mounting position or use an extension cable (≥ 22 AWG).
zConfirm the polarities of the included cable and the extension one before connecting them. A reverse
polarity contact will result in abnormal operations. The extension cable should not exceed 10 meters
(32.8 feet).
zEnsure that the base cover of Renogy ONE is firmly mounted to the wall to prevent it from falling off.

Tape the mounting template to
the selected mounting location,
and measure whether the 12V
power cable is long enough to
connect Renogy ONE to your
DC power supply.
If the included 12V power cable is not long enough for connecting
Renogy ONE to your DC power supply, re-select a mounting
position or use an extension cable (≥ 22 AWG). If you do not need
to extend the 12V power cable, go to Figure 1.1.4. Cut the included
12V power cable, and strip off some of the insulation.

Use the drill and skill saw to dig
the installation hole according
to the gray mark on the
mounting template.

Tear off the mounting template. Remove the base cover of Renogy ONE with a Phillips screwdriver
(#2).
1.1.7
UP
Put the protruding part of the
base cover into the installation
hole (in a direction and position
as shown in Figure 1.1.7), and
use a Phillips screwdriver to
fasten the base cover with four
M4 mounting screws through
the mounting hole.
Note that screws are driven
in straight into the mounting
holes to ensure the base cover
perfectly fits into Renogy ONE.

zRenogy ONE can be connected to a DC power supply of up to 16V; otherwise Renogy ONE may be
damaged.
zIllustrations in this quick guide are based on scenarios where REGO 12V 400Ah Lithium Iron
Phosphate Battery and REGO 3 Ports 400A Battery Combiner Box are adopted as power supplies.
zMake sure the DC power supply is powered off before connection.
zConfirm the polarities of the DC power supply before connection. A reverse polarity contact will result
in abnormal operations.
zAfter correct power cable connection and normal power-on of the DC power supply, Renogy ONE is
automatically powered on. Failed automatic power-on indicates Renogy ONE needs troubleshooting.
For details, refer to Troubleshooting in the user manual of Renogy ONE. For additional support,
please contact our customer service through renogy.com/contact-us/.
zRisk of electric shock! Power off the DC power supply after the test on power-on of Renogy ONE is
completed.

Renogy ONE can communicate with Renogy energy devices in several ways:
1. Bluetooth wireless communication;
2. Wired communication based on RS485 protocol;
3. Wired communication based on RV-C protocol.
You can choose an appropriate communication method according to the actual situation.
zFor Bluetooth wireless communication, communication wiring is not required.
zFor RS485 or RV-C communication, you need to wire Renogy ONE with energy devices.
How to wire RV-C communication cables varies depending on the connection network topology. Both
backbone and daisy chain topologies are supported.
Connect devices to Renogy ONE according to the wiring diagram provided by the RV manufacturer. For
technical support from Renogy, please contact us through renogy.com/contact-us/.
For scenarios where the RVs are installed with RV-C buses and where relevant devices are connected
in backbone topology, see the user manual of Renogy ONE for connection details. If an RV-C bus is not
pre-installed in the RV, please follow the steps below.
Recommended Accessories
Communication Cable (LP16 Plug (7-Pin) to RJ45
Communication Adapter Cable)
(for RV-C daisy chain topology connection)
Communication Cable (RJ45 Ethernet Cable)
(for RS485 connection)
zSelect the appropriate communication cable (sold separately) according to the distance between
devices. The communication cable should be less than 6 meters (19.6 feet).
zFor RV-C daisy chain topology, please make sure that the CAN communication socket of the first
device is installed with a 120ΩLP16 terminal plug (7-pin).
zFor detailed instructions, please refer to the User Manual at renogy.com or by scanning the QR code
in the beginning part of the guide.

zFor your safety, please refer to the user manual of Renogy ONE at renogy.com for the recommended
wire gauge and length.
zEnsure that the working current of an external DC load is less than or equal to 5A; otherwise Renogy
ONE may be damaged.
zEnsure that the output voltage of the DC power supply for an external DC load is less than or equal
to 30V; otherwise Renogy ONE may be damaged.
zMake sure the DC power supply is powered off before connection.
zConfirm the polarities of the DC power supply and the load before connection. A reverse polarity
contact will result in abnormalities.
zMake sure the DC power supply is powered off before wiring.
zStrip some insulation off the bare wire end according to the depth of the installation hole.
zThe maximum screw torque of wire hatch is 0.4 N•m. Do not overtighten the screws to avoid
damage to the hatch.
