Installation
1
Ensure the mounting surface is strong enough to handle 3 times the total weight of all the components. Add plywood or other
reinforcing material as necessary to strengthen the surface.
2
Attach the wall bracket. Center the mounting holes on the wall studs. Use all 6 mounting screws to secure the bracket.
3
Lift the inverter so that the inverter bracket is above the wall bracket.
4
Lower the inverter so that the inverter bracket slips into the wall bracket.
5
If GSLC is not used: Secure the inverter to the surface using a minimum of 1 wall screw (or appropriate hardware).
If GSLC is used: Unscrew the inverter bottom screws approximately (0.6 cm (¼") to 0.5 cm (3/16").
6
7
Align the GSLC along the bottom of the inverter. Slide the bottom screws into the keyhole slots.
8
Mark the spots for the GSLC mounting feet. (If necessary, remove the GSLC to install wall anchors.) Install screws to secure the feet.
9
Follow the appropriate instructions for installing other components. Different mounting locations are available.

The FLEXmax charge
controller is mounted
with the FW-CCB bracket.
The FW-CCB2 allows two
controllers side by side (using
the forward holes to allow for
conduit.)
The Radian has two sets of
9
bracket positions. The GSLC
has one set.
NOTE: The FLEXmax
Extreme charge controller
attaches directly to the wall,
not the Radian system.
It does not use
