Ground fault and Arc fault settings
There is a 2 pin header to the right of the blue terminal block for Ground Fault Protection as seen below. The
supplied jumper must be installed across both pins as well as GFP enabled in the “Tweaks” menu in order for GFP
to operate. To enable GFP in the Tweaks menu push the Main Menu button repeatedly until “Charge” is
highlighted. Scroll to the right until “Tweaks” is highlighted, then press “Enter”. Push the right soft key labeled
“More” once. Now scroll to the right until the “on” or “off” under “GF” is highlighted. Use the up / down arrow
buttons to change it to the desired setting and press “Enter”. Please note that the above menu is the same menu
where you would enable or disable Arc Fault (AF). And pressing “Arc Adjust” when in this menu will take you to
the sensitivity adjustments for the Arc Fault Detection system. In this menu there will be 2 adjustments you can
change to make the Arc Fault less sensitive. You can change the “Time” and the “Sensitivity”. The higher the
numbers the LESS sensitive the Arc Fault Detection will be. Press “Enter” to save the changes and then power the
Classic down and back on to make these changes take effect.
Non Solar inputs to the Classic
The Classic will accept a wide variety of DC inputs from sources like Solar, Wind, Hydro, Fuel Cells ETC. One of
the biggest concerns when hooking the Classic to alternative sources of DC is the Voltage. Exceeding the Classics
Voltage window will cause damage to the Classic.
Exceeding the Classic's Voltage window will cause damage to the Lite.
If the source is unregulated and can exceed the Classics voltage a Clipper will be needed to assure the Classic never
has its voltage ratings exceeded.
For more info on alternative inputs to the Classic please consult the Classic owner’s manual or contact technical
support techsupport@midnitesolar.com or 360-403-7207
