Morningstar
- Relay Driver
Morningstar’s Logic Module Accessory for Solar Controllers
 Morningstar’s
Relay Driver is a logic module which provides high level system
control functions such as high/low voltage alarms, load control
and generator start. The product controls four independent relay
driver outputs by reading digital data inputs from Morningstar’s
TriStar controller or by reading battery voltage when used in systems
with other controllers.
Typical Functions
• High and Low Alarm Contacts for Industrial Applications
• Load Control Including High Power Applications (pumps and
large motors)
• Temperature Controlled Settings for Battery Fans or Cooling
Vents
• Generator Start Functions
• Auxiliary AC Backup Charge Control
Data Control
Input Options
1. Connected to a TriStar Controller:
Battery voltage, charge/load current, battery temperature, TriStar
heatsink temperature, PWM duty cycle, PV/load voltage, and all TriStar
alarms or faults.
2. Used in Systems with Other Controllers:
Battery voltage, Relay Driver temperature, input voltages from other
sources.
Key Features and Benefits
Cost Effective
The four channels provide up to four high level system control functions
at a lower cost compared to other alarm and generator start packages.
High Reliability
Each channel has complete electronic protections for high reliability.
Flexibility
The system designer may choose the exact relay needed for each application
including a wide range of current ratings and solid state, mechanical
or mercury displacement relays.
Fully Programmable
It is easy to program the Relay Driver with the included PC software
via serial RS-232 port connection. Data is stored in non-volatile
memory.
The Relay Driver is pre-programmed with four commonly used settings.
Advanced Generator Control
Provides flexible parameters to control one, two or three-wire generator
schemes and complete control of preheat, crank, ignition and cool-down.
Industrial Design
Each relay driver output may be controlled directly by MODBUS commands
via the RS-232 for use with PLC’s and other industrial hardware.
Mounts to a DIN rail or a flat surface.
LED Indicators
Displays power and status of each channel as well as faults and
data sampling intervals.
