The meter will display a great deal of information about the TriStar controller and the operation of your system. In addition, the meter enables manual functions and controller diagnostics. These capabilities will increase your confidence that the system is working properly and will help you to improve system reliability, battery life, and system performance. It is worth the time getting to know your meter! The TriStar is a technically advanced and professional solar system controller. Two digital LCD meter versions are available for the TriStar controller, and their internal displays are identical. One version is mounted on the controller (TS-M-2), the other is for remote locations (TS-RM-2).
