Pressing and holding the #4 soft key for several

seconds selects among the three MX60 Auto

The MX60’s sunrise-related activity can be in uenced. During certain days of the year, the sun

never “sets” in parts of Alaska, for instance, and the PV output is constant. The MX60 responds to

these situations by generating its own sunrise reading at either 24 or 25 hours with 25 hours being

the default value. After this 24 or 25 hour period, the MX60 automatically initiates a BULK cycle and logs

the daily KiloWattHour / AmpHour statistics and Float Time to be logged and accumulated in the

Logging screen. Pressing down and holding the third soft key, then releasing and pressing and

holding again for a few seconds, will toggle the value between 24 and 25 hours. Mini-sweeps at

the selected sweep interval will initiate on time in either of these modes. Press the <NEXT> soft

key to view the secondary Log2 screen.

After 3 hours of sleeping, the MX60 displays “Zzzz….” This means that the next wakeup will cause

the daily KiloWattHour / AmpHour statistics and Float Time to be logged and accumulated in the

Logging screen. This (the next wakeup) will also initiate a Bulk charge cycle.
