OutBack MPPT Charge Controller - was FX2000 update [RE-wrenches]

[Christopher Freitas - OutBack Power]

We have completed most of the ETL testing on the MX60 PV MPPT charge 
controller at this point.  We did find one construction issue with the 
design during the testing causing us to make some changes which delayed 
the release.  Production units in volume should be shipping in mid to 
late October.  

The MX60 is a single model for 12, 24, 36, 48 and even 60 volt battery 
systems (125 vdc max PV open circuit voltage).  Only the voltage 
regulation setpoints need to be changed when installing a MX60 on a 48 
vdc system (12 vdc is the default setting).  All setpoint adjustments 
are made on the built in 4 line 80 character LCD display which also 
shows output watts and KWH.  

BTW > I heard there is a new Sharp (?) PV module coming out which has a 
64 vdc open circuit?  Is this a cold or hot value?  Using two in series 
will be an issue with the 125 vdc maximum ratings on all of our circuit 
breakers and ground fault protection systems... any thoughts?
