Morningstar RD-1, Relay Driver for TriStar Controller

Morningstars RD-1 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 RD-1 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. Data Control Input Options 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. Used in Systems with Other Controllers: Battery voltage, Relay Driver temperature, input voltages from other sources.
