I never have set up and tested the three 250w panels to see how well they match up. Luckily the controller hasn't had any issues running just them.
Going over the different test I have realize there is another affect that can be seen with the controller being confused. I would have the four mixed panels out and when it went from cloudy to sunny the controller didn't kick up the output. A few times it eventually did after a few minutes, a few times I had to disconnect the array and allow the controller to go to sleep. It would start producing the expected amps when it came back on line. Normally the controllers respond to changes in light instantly.
