3.2.1 Test Setup

Connect the DC voltage source, to the panel connection (J1). Set the input voltage ranges from 15V to 22V for 12V systems and from 30V to 44V for 24V systems.

Connect the battery or electronic load to the battery connection (J2). This reference design supports 12V, 24V batteries. If using an electronic load to simulate a battery, set the load to constant voltage mode (CV) and to the respective voltage system regulates the voltage itself.
