2 Preparation
2.1 Safety Instructions
DANGER
· Do not disconnect TSOL-RSDM while the PVRSS is working. There is possibility of dying
due to electrical shock and high voltage.
· To prevent risk of electric shock during installation and maintenance, please make su
re that
TSOL-RSDM-CQ or any other control unit, such as the DC switch of inverter, are turned
off.
WARNING
·The installation, service, recycling and disposal of the PVRSS must be performed by
qualified personnel only in compliance with national and local standards and regulations.
·Any unauthorized actions including modification of product fun
ctionality of any form may
cause lethal hazard to the operator, third parties, the units or their property. TSUN

5 System Test and Troubleshooting
5.1 System test
5.1.1 Function test
Please do the function test regularly.
1)Push the button of rapid shutdown controller. The status of light will be off. Check the solar inverter. The
DC current will be cut off and the DC voltage will be lower than 30V in 30 seconds.
2)Rotate the button of rapid shutdown controller. The status of light will be on. The solar will start to work
again.
5.1.2 Maintain test
When the TSOL-RSDM-CQ stops working, the TSOL-RSDM-DS will have a continuous 0.9 V output and
the TSOL-RSDM-DD will have a continuous 1.75 V output.
1)Push the button and stop the TSOL-RSDM-CQ.
2)Separate the DC cable and rapid shutdown controller. Test the voltage of each DC cable.
System Voltage = 0.9 V * Quantities of TSOL-RSDM-DS or
