MX60 sleep/wakeup
System
Posts: 2,511 admin
I have an MX60 (4 years old) that recently started going into sleep mode for a couple seconds, then wake up, and then will settle back into MPPT. From sleep to MPPT takes about 30 seconds. The frequency of this has increased to several times per hour. I figure I'm losing an hour of charging per day. I talked to Outback support & tried a few things they suggested without success. Anybody else experienced this??

Re: MX60 sleep/wakeup
Nothing specific except check that all electrical connections are clean and tight--no water/corrosion around (check for burned areas in panels, etc.).
Intermittent problems can be a real pain to resolve short of swapping hardware.
