Description

Tycon Solar’s® TP-SCPOE-1248 PoE/Solar charge controllers deliver a powerful, dual-input solution for uninterrupted battery charging. By seamlessly integrating both PoE and solar power sources, these controllers provide maximum reliability and efficiency, ensuring 100% uptime for critical applications.

Intelligent Dual-Power Design for Maximum Uptime

Designed for redundancy and efficiency, the TP-SCPOE-1248 prioritizes solar power when available, minimizing grid dependency and optimizing energy usage. When sunlight is insufficient, the PoE input seamlessly takes over, guaranteeing continuous power flow. The built-in PoE inserter and DC-to-DC converter consistently deliver a stable 48V at the PoE port, ensuring reliable power to connected devices.

Comprehensive Electronic Protections

Equipped with advanced safeguards, this controller protects both your power system and connected equipment. Its full suite of electronic protections includes:

  • Short circuit and reverse current protection to prevent damage.
  • Overvoltage, overcharge, and over-discharge protection to extend battery life.
  • Auto-recovery functions that ensure the system quickly returns to normal operation after a fault is resolved.

User-Friendly Monitoring and Connectivity

With five LED indicators, monitoring system status is quick and hassle-free. At a glance, users can check whether power is coming from PoE or solar, verify battery charging status, confirm load output, and receive reverse polarity warnings when needed.

Connections are designed for secure and efficient operation:

  • Solar and battery connections use five screw terminals, accommodating up to 10AWG wire.
  • PoE input and output are managed through two shielded RJ45 connectors, ensuring stable and interference-free connections.
  • A secondary output connector on the back provides direct battery voltage, allowing easy integration of additional electronics.

Built for Durability and Easy Maintenance

To enhance long-term reliability, the TP-SCPOE-1248 features an externally replaceable fuse, simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting. Its rugged construction makes it an ideal choice for critical applications, whether deployed in remote locations or high-demand urban environments.

With its intelligent power management, robust protections, and flexible connectivity, Tycon Solar’s® TP-SCPOE-1248 ensures dependable, uninterrupted power where it matters most.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What differences can I expect when switching my batteries to LiFePO4?

LIT is a battery settings mode.  When switching to LIT, the S parameters should be the same as the previous default settings.

When battery voltage falls below 10V the battery BMS disconnects the battery discharge. As soon as there is PV voltage the battery BMS connects the charge and discharge. We recommend the customer set the LOAD Output turnoff at 11V so tha load disconnects before the battery BMS disconnects the discharge.

 

We recommend that you just leave the parameters set to AGM Lead Acid. This is how the Lithium battery BMS is designed. The AGM Lead Acid settings in the charge controller are compatible with the battery BMS.

You won’t see voltage spikes when connected to the battery (BMS), even if the battery BMS disconnects the discharge.  No firmware updates are available or needed to switch from AGM lead acid to lithium.

Procedure for toggling the LOAD in the Firmware?

Having physical access to the TPDIN-WEB3 Monitor and log into  it.

Select the MPPT tab

What you need to do now is to make sure the enable Load Toggle is selected

At this point you will toggle the load to off then back to On then uncheck the Enable Toggle Load box.

This makes changes to the firmware in the charge controller so now power down your controller – disconnect solar charging then disconnect the batteries by removing the fuse

Wait 1 minute then reconnect the batteries and verify everything comes back on including your load. If everything is back on then reconnect your solar.

My WEB3 is connected to the MPPT solar controller with an RS485 serial cable but the current readings are all zero on the MPPT display and in the WEB3 MPPT page

The ground between the V- load output on the MPPT solar controller and the TPDIN-Monitor-WEB3 V- needs to be isolated for the MPPT controller to sense the currents properly.

A TP-DCDC-1224 DCDC converter can be used to isolate the power and solve this issue.

I have a Tycon MPPT solar charge controller. My batteries are wired for 24V, but they are so low the controller thinks they are 12V batteries and won’t charge them

The MPPT charge controllers by default are set for 12V/24V auto detect. Using the keys on the front of the unit go into the settings and set for 24V battery instead of 12/24 auto detect. Save the setting. Power down the unit by disconnecting the solar and then battery. Power up the unit. It should power up in 24V battery mode. Re-connect the solar input.

    I bought two of these units TP-SCPOE-1248) POE/Solar Dual Input 12V to power two Axis cameras located at a remote site: no power or internet. The have been working beautifully.
