Steca Solarix Sigma 12/24V 20A solar charge controller

Users manual (or just some information) needed

Hi

I have just come into possession of a Steca Solarix Sigma 12/24V 20A solar charge controller. I need information on what the LED's are trying to tell me and how to configure the jumpers. Anyone have the manual? I can't find it online, only the brochure.

PS. I removed the controller from a South African built catamaran where it was getting very hot and bothered trying to regulate four 75 Watt panels (Do the maths). I installed a Morning Star 30A controller for them and took the Sigma home with me. The fuse holder had melted and come loose from the circuit board. I fixed that and will test it tomorrow to see whether it's still alive and will install it in my system if it is working. (I'm running three 55W panels and the most I realistically have space for on my yacht is one more.)

Hi again

I got it!

I found a "contact us" form at http://www.unlimited-power.co.uk and asked for the manual. Got it within less than 10 minutes!. Amazing, considering it must have been around 0300 in the morning in the UK at the time.

If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.
