OLUTION
The Ilumen PID Box Mini can only apply the Ilumen PID Solution in an automatic mode. To start
up the Ilumen PID Box Mini, plug in the DC power supply into a standard EU outlet (This outlet
must be on at all times). Next see if the LED light on the Ilumen PID Box Mini starts burning.
After checking the system it will be switched on automatically.
When the Ilumen PID Box Mini is hooked up correctly to the inverter you will see the following
status LED readouts.
BLUE: device is switched on, is in standby mode, measures a voltage on the PV
wires
GREEN: device is switched on, is in standby mode, measures a current on the PV
wires
CYAN: BLUE & GREEN
RED: device is switched on and cures the PV system
It is normal for the LED to be out at the beginning and at the end of the night
After start-up you may turn the DC switch of the inverter back on, followed by the AC side of the
PV plant.
The config button can be used to reinitialize the PID Solution if needed.
