I have the 200 w Solar kit with the Adventurer controller. All is hooked up correct (99% sure) When I scroll though the screens I cannot get a reading in the PV Amps or volts? I just get battery volts and temp, nothing else. I have tired will with almost full batteries and 75% full but no PV amps or Volts.
The panels are producing about 20 volts each, and with an amp meter they are producing in perfect sunshine 7 amps each, but the controller shows 0.
Spoke with tech at Renogy and they showed how to do a reboot, but nothing. I would return it but we are now travelling in FL and it;s not easy to do.
Anyone have any other ideas?
Thx

something ain't right, with a voltmeter the PV input should be = or slightly greater than batt voltage when charging. Connected 20v indicates either the batts are FULL or not charging.
Beside disconnecting the panels and then the batts and reconnecting the batts and then the panel, I'd try the return.
You can always connect the panels directly to the batt and then monitor batt v, you become the controller and disconnect @ ~15v and at night!
